nroff/troff/tab/col.  Is there somekind of software that I need to do
this.  Please send me e-mail at the address listed below.  Thanks!

You don't need anything at all to use NROFF with the Series II.
If you want to do fancy looking troff stuff, however, you'll first
first have to get troff (!) -- the 3B1 doesn't come with it.
(Nor, of course, does it come with any troff laser printer drivers.)

You can get Troff + LaserJet Series II + PostScript support for the 3B1
(and loads of other machines including MS-DOS) from:
