[unix-pc.general] Help with Nroff & C. Itoh 715A

davy@ea.ecn.purdue.edu.UUCP (11/08/87)

A friend has a UNIX-PC with a C. Itoh 715A printer.  She has the IBM
Prowriter XL and the EPSON LQ-1000 personality cards.

I need an nroff width table for this beast.  Unfortunately, her PC has
some ASCII table in /usr/lib/nterm which drives the thing, instead of
the usual compiled C program in /usr/lib/term.  I tried writing one
off the cuff with the minimal documentation AT&T supplies, and only
succeeded in making it print crap all over the page.

While I have your attention, how does one set up the L.sys line for
this thing?  I tried using "ACU" and "/dev/ph0" in the device field,
and got some stupid message about device not present.  There is no
documentatio on setting up uucp in her doc set.

Please respond directly to me, I do not have a UNIX PC and do not
read this newsgroup.

Thanks,
