	This may well be an impossible request, but.... Parks college has on
order an hp laserjet+ laser printer on order to do text processing (we need
to do eqn and tbl sorts of things alot). After having the demo here for a 
while, all the students wanted to do all sorts of things with the printer.
Not having the skills yet they pushed a lot of paper out of the laserjet
with lots of trash on it. Rather than have the students (this means faculty
as well) waste toner, paper, etc on the laserjet, I thought I might have 
them experiment and do first draft runs on the toshiba printer (360 x 180
resolution). Unfortunately I am barely able to get an nroff driver table
set up let alone a ditroff driver. Does anybody have a ditroff driver for
a toshiba p3?? series printer or any similar 24-pin printer ??

					Thanxs

P.S.
Please send any replies to the address above. I am not yet fully uucp'd yet.

I think I'm supposed to put some sort of disclaimer here, but I think that
Parks would rather disclaim me
