I can see in /usr/lib/NextPrinter/Drivers/NXDotMtxDriver somes files about  
dot matrix printers describing the (binary) commands you need to make them  
print some bitmaps and some properties. You also have some descriptions in  
/NextLibrary/PrinterTypes/English.lproj/*.pdf

Where can I get information on how to build such a file for my DeskWriter  
printer ? I did not found any clues in the supplied docs.

Can we build easyly some descriptions ? Does someone has written  
descriptions for DeskWriter (normal or color) ImageWriter (BW) ?

Any information, or help is welcome.

PS: Is NS3 really able to send data to the serial port at 57.6 Kb/s ?
