I have a Systech VPC-2200 multibus line printer controller (with Dataproducts
interface) that I would like to install in our Sequent B8.

1.  Does anyone have source code for a driver for this guy, or even anything
    remotely similar?  We only have a binary distribution of Dynix.
2.  Is there any chance that Sequent's "lp" driver will support this board?
3.  Does anyone know if the only board Sequent's "lp" driver supports is the
    Systech MP-2000?
4.  Does anyone know what the Systech MP-2000 (or whatever it is Sequent sells
    and supports) sells for on the open market?

Thanks.
