Subject: Driving a postScript printer from COM?
Sender: owner-9fans@cse.psu.edu

In /sys/lib/lp/daemon/post there is a reference to
a program called "postio".  It seems to be used to
drive a PostScript printer through a serial port.

There is a tcpostio for driving one on the network.
Mine is a little old for that.

Before I start converting tcpostio to postio again,
can I get postio from anywhere?

Thanks in advance
