Does anybody have an HP Laserjet II or IID connected to thier VAX as a
printer at a remote VTAM address.  How difficult is it to do, and what info
would the system need to configure it.

I come from the PC or IBM S/3x world, and on these systems, it must be
defined in software (for the PC), or as a supported printer (on the S/3x).
What type of printer would the HP emulate in the DEC world.

My goal here is to eventually get Word Perfect for the VAX and print on HP
Laserjets.

Any thoughts or experience in this area would be greatly appreciated.

Please send any info to me directly, however, I will watch these newsgroups
in case you can't find a path back to me.

Thanks in advance,
