C'mon, SOMEONE out there has GOT to have a filter that converts TeX DVI
output to PCL, the language used by HP laserjets and Canon LBP-8 II's. Isn't
there ANYONE out there who is using an HP or Canon laser printer with TeX?
I didn't get any response at all the first time I posted. Please, HELP!!

I have never used it, but I saw it in the listing. g.

Do you want a series 300 or a series 800 version (slightly different as the 300 one uses some series 300 pascal featues). Let me know and I will post it if there are more people who want it otherwise I will E-mail it.

Things are working very well, though not perfectly. At the present, we are using a Unix/TeX version from a local university while we are waiting for our official distribution from U. of Wash. We believe the minor problems we have are because the borrowed version is not complete, especially in font support. In summary: if you need HP LaserJet dvi drivers, contact Mr. Beebe as noted above. -- Terry Westley Moog, Inc.

There are two sources of such things that I know of Nelson Bebee (sp?) at Utah and me. Send me a note.

I have two dvi-to-laser printer drivers written in C that work on HP9000/540. One is for Laserjet+ and the other for Kyocera. I'd be happy to send them to anybody who wants them. I am about to test them for the 9000/350 but forsee no major problems (except recalling that the stacks grow in different directions on the two machines).
