Does anyone have a PROFF printer driver for a NEC8023 ?

The problem is that bold and underline don't work properly on the NEC
because of the way it stores and prints lines.  It is effectively
ignoring backspaces...  :-) You tend to get bold text lliikkee tthhiiss or
for underlined text l_i_k_e t_h_i_s_ !!
