hi everybody, 

we want to buy a postscript laser printer for our
DS5000/240, and an HP Laserjet 5M+ seems to suit out needs.
however, since i have never hooked up a printer in my life,
i am desperately looking for someone who has gone through it 
before, and can give me some good advice.  
e.g., does anyone know whether they are compatible and/or 
what kind of extra software/hardware will i need if any?
(the running operating system is Ultrix 4.3)

also any clues about hooking it up, or suggestions for alternative
buys will be greatly appreciated..

Thanks

Alkan
