Prob w/ HP LJet3si
#587

Hello all,

 I recently installed Ghostscript 2.5.2 on a HP-UX system. All went 
 well with one important exception. The only printer we have available
 is a HP LaserJet 3si. The devs.mak has several HP drivers that look
 like they could work, however I have been unable to get usable 
 output from any of them. The command I'm using is:
	 $gs -sDEVICE=xxx -sOutputFile=\|lp file.ps
 where xxx is one of: laserjet, ljet3, ljet2p, ljetplus, even tried
 some of the DeskJet drivers. All print a 'line too long' message,
 some then proceed to dump 40 or 50 pages of garbage. The LJ3si is
 set to expect PCL by default. It is, of course, not Postscript(c)
 compatable. 

 If anyone could provide any help I would be very grateful!

 Thanks in advance,
 Jeff
