Hi, everyone,

We have an HP printer C1208A, which was bought for our HP9000/800 
server(HP-UX 9.04). We have been able to print International characters
(Japanese SJIS) correctly when connecting the printer locally to the HP
 server.  For some reason, we setup it as a TCP/IP network printer
on LanBase(assigned it an IP address). It works and can print ASCII text
file from the HP box and but we failed to print out any Japanese 
text any more. We feel that we may need a filter for concerting 
the Japanese text to a format the network printer can recognite.

I am wondering if I can get any advice or suggestion on this.
Thank you for your help in advice.

P.S. We successfully setup the printer from WinNT + LPR port
      using the driver  HP LaserJet IIISi. We can print Japanese
      from Windows machine.
