Greetings!

We have a HP IIISi with postscript that we would like to hang off our TCP/IP
network.  The problem is that:

A:   We have very little money (what else is new).
B:   The HP Ethernet card for the IIISi does not support TCP/IP.

The only option I can think of is to set up a DOS or UNIX machine with LPD
so other systems can use LPR to print to it.  I have heard that there are
also some third party black boxes that could also do the job.

If anyone has any information that they would be willing to share...
THANKS in advance!
