Since I'm probably going to be getting a laser printer (which one I'm
not sure yet), I was told today by someone that the GSS*Drivers/VDI that
comes with the 3B1 don't support Laser Printers, in particular HP LaserJet II.

I was interested in plotting some stuff with the GSS*Chart package I have,
and possibly using the GSS/VDI libraries for some other plots to the
printer.  Without the necessary drivers, it's useless.  Has anyone
seen the GSS Drivers for an HP LJ?   Any ideas?

Also has anyone seen these packages (specifically on the 3B1, but generic
comments OK too) and can comment on how they are?  Also where I can get them
for the 3B1 would be useful too.

	GSS Toolkit (which included GSS GKS, GSS Plotting System, 
		     GSS Window Manager, GSS Metafile Interface)

Or will I need to have the Laser Printer emulate Epson, or HP7470A or 7475A
plotter commands?

Thanks,
-Lenny
