[comp.unix.ultrix] Help on Hooking HP LJ3 to DECstation 5000 Needed

qiangli@gauss.casr.fau.edu (Charlie Li) (06/14/91)

I am trying to connect a HP LaserJet III printer to our DECstation 5000
through serial link (9600bps) with tty00, but I had no luck to have it
work.  I would appreciate your help very much, if you have any experience
with it and have printcap file and filter file for my use, or you know
where to obtain those filters/files.  DEC does not supply third party
printers, so I have no other way to suceed.  All other DECstations here
don't have any printer connected...

I am also trying to add another option: PacificPage Postscript Cartrige to
the LaserJet printer, but I would like to have the printer be able to work
in both modes: PCL and PS.

Thank you very much in advance.
