[comp.sys.sgi] Device drivers for HP printers

W0L@PSUVM.BITNET (Bill Lasher) (09/29/89)

Does anyone know if device drivers are available for the HP Inkjet or Deskjet p
rinters?  We would like to be able to print both text files and do screen dumps
 to these devices (from a 4D).  SG hotline says they don't know of any.

    I wrote a program that creates files for HP Thinkjet printers and works
on SGI 3000's.  You could use it as starting point.  It is written in FORTRAN
so you will have to change it to C, because the 4D FORTRAN doesn't support
binary files (real pain in neck).  I put this on the Info-Iris anonyous ftp
account.  There are also some programs in the file for other printers, 
Tektronix 4693D, Postscript, and Printronix.  I hope these are of some help.
