I am interested in any information concerning hooking up the serial printer port
ouput of a PC to a terminal input of an HP9000/320 running HP-UX 7.0 to
use the printer spooling capabilities of the Unix system.

I would like to use the "raw" mode (i.e. lp -or) of the line printer program
so I can print graphics files and other non ascii formats.

Does anyone know of any builtin functions that allow for this or any programs
or scripts that would accomplish this?

Please e-mail any help to the address below.

Thanks!
