I finally managed to boot the RS/6000 in the basement.  It is DEFINATELY
ditroff.  It works with Laserjets with the K cartridge (eg: rather limited -
no downloads) and two different IBM printers - neither postscript.  If you want
to generate HPLJ with full capabilities, you want jetroff.  If you want
Postscript, use tpscript.

Or wait a bit, and psroff (R3.0) will support it.
