We have been in contact with Mr. Beebe and are currently using 'dvijep'
for the HP LaserJet Series II. Things are working very well, though
not perfectly. At the present, we are using a Unix/TeX version from a
local university while we are waiting for our official distribution
from U. of Wash. We believe the minor problems we have are because the
borrowed version is not complete, especially in font support.
In summary: if you need HP LaserJet dvi drivers, contact Mr. Beebe as
noted above.
