We have an ancient Symbolics LGP-1 laser printer (serial number 2!) with what I suspect is correspondingly old (version 1E) firmware. RS232 flow control does not work. The printer freezes up when sent the output of "dvi2lgp" from a TeX'd document. There are other problems. The rep I talked to at Symbolics was not able to answer my questions, and he's stopped returning my phone calls. So much for the "front door". o Is there a more recent version of the LGP-1 firmware than version 1E? How can I get it? o Does anyone have a DR11-C driver for the LGP-1, for 4.2bsd? Despite its funny behaviour and even funnier smells, I've fallen in love with the thing. Sure would be neat to get it working.... Thanks! Landon Dyer ... lll-crg!vecpyr!atari!dyer
