  I have been using the Sun stations, but now I switched to Dec station.
Can I ask the following questions:

1) The troff software does not work. I tried on the Dec stations of several
   Universities, but the response is just "Typesetter busy". Can anyone tell
   me how to print troff documents on this machine.

2) On sun, we can use "bintype" to found out the hosttype, but on Dec
   stations, I cann't find such a command.

	Any information is appreciated.
