Does anybody have any experience (s or horror stories) about using STSC's 
pc version 7.0 apl with a HP LaserJet IIP ?
Using the supplied printers workspace to install / select / setup the
system printer, they only offer selections (in the range we are considering)
the HP LaserJet +, in landscape or portriate mode.
Every other software package I have in using the LaserJet + driver when
a closer/different/exact HP LJ IIP driver isn't available works just fine.
With STSC V.7 the results I get are very funny, it can and does print
very well the entire character set & all sorts of text type of output.
However, when I try to print a graph or graphics that I have created, I 
only get garbage at the printer.

Anybody have comments, different experiences, use of later versions of apl,
helpful hints, or anything to add, all helpful & useless info gladly accepted
... 8-)
