Sigh .....

It would be soooooo useful if users would talk to technicians
before they go racing off to buy smart-looking new printers.
I think they are becoming more of a fashion item than a workplace
tool.

Anyway, for reasons that we need not go into, I CANNOT give this
user department any network connections.  They've bought one 5N
and one 6P to replace a couple of printers spooled from (serial)
DTC ports.  The 5N has a multi-protocol JetDirect card, but I
can't get it to print from a DTC serial port.  The 6P is connected
to a PC and has no JetDirect card.  Don't know what to do with this
one.

I seem to remember having read somewhere that these printers are
not supported as spooled SERIAL printers connected to DTCs.  Can
anyone confirm this?
