[comp.lang.postscript] IBM 4019 Printer on Unix ?

briank@ars2.UUCP (D. Brian Kimmel) (03/14/91)

I have the opportunity to "Buy" (for free realy) an IBM 4019 laser
printer.  It has a Postscript option and a printer sharing option.

Can I use this printer as a postscript printer under SCO-ODT unix?
Will the printer sharing option interfere with Unix operation?
(Some people in this organization want to use some dos programs
to print.)  I want to lock the printer into postscript mode and
let dos users access it in that mode and only when the Unix box
in not currently using the printer.  Since I have 10 terminals
on Unix, I don't want one or two dos users to be able to take
control of the printer and leave everyone else hanging.

Please respond via E-mail as I can't always read this group.
