[comp.laser-printers] Info on HP LJ II wanted

GA3230@SIUCVMB.BITNET (05/16/87)

We have recently purchased a HP LaserJet Series II printer.
Does anyone out there have the printer driver/description table/
printcap/termcap entries or whatever is needed to drive the printer
by nroff/troff under UNIX O.S.

HP tells me it should be a part of the sw and sw dealer tells me
we should get it from HP !!!!
I'll appriciate any information on how and where to get it from.
Thanks in advance.

[Et tu, line-eater?]

We have a laserjet II in at our company.  The Laserjet Plus driver for our 
software (OFFICE/Publisher, a DG and AT&T-based publishing software) seems to
work okay with one exception - we select a download font using the ID
we specified at download time.  This works well and good in the Plus, but it
doesn't seem to work with the II.  Has anyone else noticed this? (I know,
that's not the "approved " way to select fonts, but it IS documented in
the manual).

Thanks in advance!
