Message-ID: <951@unmvax.UUCP> Date: Wed, 4-Dec-85 18:09:04 EST Article-I.D.: unmvax.951 Posted: Wed Dec 4 18:09:04 1985 Date-Received: Sat, 7-Dec-85 03:19:10 EST Distribution: net Organization: Univ. of New Mexico, Albuquerque Lines: 24 Xref: watmath net.wanted:7695 net.dcom:1521 Greetings: I have a net of Zenith (IBM pc compat.) computers running pc/ip on the same net as a number of microVAXen running ultrix (~4.2). I'd like to get a laser printer to do troff on the microVAXen. [A laserjet+, perhaps, maybe an imagen, maybe something else: I'm easy] What I need is a program to dump the screen of the pc in such a way that it can be printed on the laser. One option is to dump the screen to disk, send it to a microVAX, and then reformat it. Has anyone done something like this? Any help would be much appreciated, as I am not real familiar with the IBM pc stuff (I'm mostly experienced in DEC hardware).
