Sun4/260 w/Postscript, Parallel interface

[Lee Fedor]

We have recently attached a postscript laser printer to the ttyb port of
the cpu.  It runs rather slow on very large files.  The question has been
raised about putting the printer on a parallel port to speed it up.  My
sales rep from Sun says that they don't sell anything like that, and even
if I bought a parallel board from a third party vendor the software
wouldn't support postscript.  This doesn't sound right, but who knows.  If
anyone has done this sucessfully I would appreciate hearing from you.
I'll summarize if there is enough interest.  Please send info directly to
me at fedor at dsg.csc.ti.com.  Thanks in Advance,
