I have recently setup our Sun SPARCStation IPC as a print server
to our PC's via PC-NFS v3.5b with a HP LaserJet IIIP. However,
the printer is not postscript compatible and only recognises
HP-PCL/HPGL formatted print files. I was wondering if anyone
knows of any (freely available) Sun based software which will
act as a driver for the printer such that incoming print jobs
will be formatted in PCL or HPGL. I am aware of Sun's NeWSPrint
software which performs a similar job...I guess I'm looking for
a freely available equivalent. All replies appreciated. Thanks in
advance..... My E-Mail addresses are below.
