We have a Tegra/Varityper 5100 laser printer, using a Canon MX (LPB-II?) 
engine, which does not have a PostScript RIP (it was used to run CORA language 
files as a Linotron 202 emulator).
    I was told by a QMS technician that they used to sell an Imagen controller 
(IP2) to enable the Imagen (or QMS or Kodak) 3320/4320/5320/7320 printers to 
run PostScript with the use of UltraScript software. He felt that this 
controller should drive the Varityper 5100. Unfortunately, they do not sell or 
support these any more.
    Is anyone familiar with this setup? Or even better yet, does anyone have a 
controller and software they are not using any more, and would like to sell?
