Lines: 10 I have a SPARC SLC and a tape/disk system. I am trying to buy an inexpensive laser printer to hook up to this system. I have been considering the HP Laser IIP. I have also heard that I would need "filters" for it to get it working and to be able to run troff/nroff stuff on it. Does anyone have any experience with such configuration? HP & Sun obviously don't think this stuff are important to their business to provide a solution and to make it public! Any help is very much appreciated. Please reply to: ...!apple!amdcad!sun0!ghiassi
