Regarding the posting about sending jobs requiring mixed software
interfaces to the TI 2108:

Man, do I feel like a dummy.  I've owned a TI2108 for five years
and I didn't know that it was possible to send mixed jobs to it
(a Post Script job followed by an HP Laserjet + job), and have the
printer automatically switch software interfaces between jobs.
My technical reference manual, copyright 1987, doesn't say anything
about it.

Please let me know how to do it.

On another note, in my last posting about problems encountered and
solved with the TI 2108 (and 2106, I presume), I mentioned that I
have located a source for OPC belts only.  Well, that's only partially
true.  It turns out that the "belt" consists of the whole OPC,
plastic frame, precision rollers, springs, corona charge matrix.
I hate throwing away the whole thing each time.  My anguish is eased
a bit, though, now that I know how to push the life of an OPC up beyond
20,000 pages. . . .
