Below are the UUENCODED files which will switch the modes of
the NEC Silenwriter2 90 via software.  This is useful if you
are using a non IBM or a non Mac machine.

(If you have an IBM compatible, the EESWITCH program provided
by NEC does the same thing, if you have a Mac, there is no
reason to switch to HP emulation).

To use the following 3 files, clip them out between the begin
and end statement (into 3 files) and UUDECODE them.

To change modes, simply copy the file to the printer.
NECS0  --> Switches to postscript mode
NECS1  --> Switches to postscript interactive
NECS5  --> Switches to HP IIP emulation

(they should also work for the other NEC postscript printers, but
 I have not verified this.  NOTE: the files contain control
 characters and the ascii equivalents  will not work)




-------- Switches to Postscript mode ---------
begin 644 NECS0
-&W96YD5V%I="`R!`P`X
``
end
size 13

-------- Switches to Postscript Interactive mode ----------

begin 644 NECS1
M&W96YD5V%I="`R!"!S=&%T=7-D:6-T(&)E9VEN('-O9G1W87)E:6]M;V1E!

-------- Switches to HP LaserJet IIP Emulation ------------

begin 644 NECS5
