BGI printer/plotter drivers?

I'm looking for a BGI driver for HPGL plotters and/or HP lasers
to use with Turbo C.  Can anybody give me a pointer?  

I'd prefer PD source, of course, but shareware or commercial is OK too.

Yes (but not a recomendation, as I'm just copying from a catalog).

I've never seen this product, let along used it.  I'm not speaking for
any company, theirs or mine; I'm just speaking my mind.
