Woops.  Forgot to mention that my dvi2hp needs were from UNIX
[SunOS4.0.3c, SunOS4.1.1b] to a HP LJ II.

I have received one reply mentioning sources; I haven't had a chance
to evaluate them, so feel free to send more pointers.  I'll summarize
whatever information I receive to the net.

Thanks,
Tony

If your main worry is MS-DOS, the DVIHPLJ program in the emTeX package
appears to be a good choice.  It's available from ymir.claremont.edu among
other places.  Unfortunately, the sources aren't available.

The DVIJEP program from the University of Utah works for LaserJet II as
well as a LaserJet Plus.  The sources are available on science.utah.edu and
ymir.claremont.edu as far as I know.

TUGboat 11.4 (Nov 1990) reports DVIJE2 as a variant of DVIJEP optimized for
a LaserJet II, and available from ymir.claremont.edu.

Although I've used LaserJet Plus and a LaserJet II a few times, most of my
laserprinter experience has actually been with an Apple LaserWriter instead,
since that's what my department owns.  The department next door involving
with lots of font development, on the other hand, has LaserJet models and
makes their fonts available in that format.  :-)

I hope this information helps.  TUGboat is a good resource--if you're at
all serious about using TeX or LaTeX, you should join TUG just for TUGboat
if nothing else!
