An alternate way to get two pages per sheet from a Laserjet is to use
a modified version of the UNIX "pr" command, which runs on the PC and
has a switch for such output.  
I found a version of pr for the PC, with c source, from Morris Jones,
MicroPro Int'l Corp., Product Development: mojo@micropro.UUCP or
{lll-crg,ptsfa,dual,well,pyramid}!micropro!mp-mojo!mojo.
The "readme" with the source asked for changes and comments to be sent
to the above.  I tried, but the mailer bounced it back (all versions).
I don't know the date from the original source.  I  made some minor
bug fixes and added the 2-pages-to-one-sheet for LJII myself.
I would like to share the modified version if Jones agrees.  If he
or someone who knows him reads this, please let me know.
