I'm looking for a "term" table for the Diablo 1640 daisywheel printer
for NROFF. These are the tables whose source typically lives in
/usr/src/cmd/troff/term, and whose binaries live in /usr/lib/term. They
are used to determine the output encoding for NROFF.
In all actuality, I don't really want the table for the Diablo
1640 -- I really want to use this with the Imagen laser printer in
the "Daisy" language (1640 emulation). If anyone has a table developed
specifically for this, I'd like to have that.
Also, if anyone has gotten the Imagen to print 66 lines per page in the
Daisy language, could you tell me what settings you use for HMI, VMI and
the font? Ours only seems to print 65 lines per page since 66 would cause
it to come too close to the paper edge. It's a small difference, but it means
you need to stick a .pl 65 in all your documents.
This is also being posted to net.laser-lovers, but that doesn't get much
traffice, so I hope you'll pardon the double posting.

The Imagen you have prints 65 lines per page in "Daisy" wheel emulation probably for the same reason ours did: a bug in the PROM emulator. Imagen has a fix (to make it 66 lines)... call your salesperson.
