 Hi. We have purchased an HP optical disk library and have a bit
of a problem. We want to write our own device driver to
control the disk changer. We found an HP publication called
"Rewritable Optical Disk Library System. Technical Reference Manual"
HP part no. 5959-3540.
It's just what we need, EXCEPT the copy we have is missing pages
3-51 to 4-26. You guessed it, these pages describe the commands
accepted by the autochanger :-( .
Now the kicker. HP claims this manual does not exist !!!!
Sure. So how are we supposed to use this device?  Instead of
relating all my frustrations over this issue, I just want to beg
for help.
DOES ANYONE HAVE THIS MANUAL? IF SO, CAN YOU SEND ME A COPY OF THE
PAGES MENTIONED ABOVE?
Can anyone out there from HP Greely Storage Division tell me how
to order a manual that will describe the commands accepted by the
autochanger?

Thanks in advance.
Ciao,
Casper
