The good news is the ghostscript 2.1.1 [ftp'able from prep.ai.mit.edu under ./pub/gnu/ghostscript*] already supports HP Laser Jet. However it requires that one has Turbo C 2.0 or above as well as an assembler and the knowledge of how to do it to make the binary file[s]. I am not going to be able to do this in near future. If someone can send me a binary file [uuencode/btoa], I would appreciate it. I have .c, .h, .ps files in C:\ghost and fonts in c:\ghost\fonts and HP LJ 3 on lpt1 if this is relevent.
