Has anyone interfaced the Sun Sparcprinter SBus card to a laser engine
other than the one Sun sells.  Does anyone know if they are using a
standard interface.  The reason I ask is that a group doing imaging work
would like to use this card with a very large Fujitsu laser engine, with
additional logic to grab the rasterized image and operate on it.

I have no experience with either the Sparcprinter or imaging so any help
whatsoever would be appreciated.
