Is anyone aware of a display-stream for the 1108 (11xx series) Xerox
Lisp Machines that drives POSTSCRIPT? We are mainly interested in connecting 
an Apple LaserWriter to our Dandelions.

We have a display stream, written at SUMEX, that works great for IMPRESS
and our IMAGEN printer, but we need one for POSTSCRIPT. Has this one been
modified, is another available??

Please respond via EMAIL.

Thanks for your time,

             John Feikema

This is in regards to the Hewlitt-Packard LaserJet Printer.

I need to receive a copy of the escape sequences for the B,D, and J font
cartridges. I know I can do them by hand, but..... Anyway, we had them but some
idiot (my boss shall remain nameless) threw them out.

These are the escape sequences that are sent to the HP Laserjet to
trigger internal font switching. The environment or configuration
of the host machine would have no effect on what the sequence is. 

Also, we are currently using the HP on an IBM running Wordmarc
Anybody in net-land have experience with this combo? I've had
some modest success with it, but font changes are a _____.

We are also about to set up a VAX8600 w/ Ultrix1.2 any
suggestions on a package to use for the HP on the VAX?
