Oh, I was talking about just the kernel driver. I was expecting to throw page bitmaps at it. That's what I did with the SPARCprinter; the lpvi driver I did back in 2002 (that one I _have_ found) just takes page bitmaps from userland and throws them to the hardware. That's all I'd expect from an np driver - and all I'd want, actually. > Most f the NeXT printers I've seen have failed in one way or > another... especially on the drive rollers and whatnot.

But it won't matter unless/until I can find the software. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
