[comp.laser-printers] DTR

Hi.  I need help with an HP laserjet II hooked to Ultrix 1.2
(4.3 bsd) on a microvax II gpx w/dhv-11 serial port.  It 
(finally) prints ok at up to about 2400 baud, but buffer
overfills at higher speed.  I guess that this means I'm not
dropping/raising DTR at appropriate time.  Could someone
tell me if I have a sensible cable configuration as below ?

		UVax		LJ II

		 1     -----      1
		 2     -----      3
		 3     -----      2

		 5 |
		 6 |   -----  	  20

		 7     -----      7

What should I change ?  I have tried HP.  They were nice and
kind...but absolutely no use whatsoever.  DEC refuses to even
let me talk to anyone since: 1) "its not our printer" and 2)
the computer is not on contract.  What @#$%^&* garbage.  Maybe
there is someone in the whole @#$%^&* world that does know
something and is not afraid to share it with others. 
Thanks in advance.  email or voice preferred, will post if
lot of interest.
