I was led to believe that the gcc/g++ port to the HP3000 would not work
without the run time libraries shipped with the HP C Developer's Kit.
Is this belief unfounded? I understand that the missing libraries are
susposed to be bundled with MPE/iX 5.5. Is this correct? [...]42_7Aug199600:29:[log in to unmask]

network printing is a mpe/ix 5.5 (c.55.00) enhancement:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
Prior to Release 5.5 of MPE/iX, the Native Mode Spooler (NMS) allowed many
programs to share a single printer connected directly to the
HP 3000. With Release 5.5, the spooler now supports any Printer Command Language
(PCL)-based printers attached to the HP 3000 via a
TCP/IP network connection and a JetDirect interface card. A printer connected to
the system in this way is called a "network printer." Users
can access such printers only via the spooler, and not as "hot" or unspooled
devices. (Application programs, on the other hand, can issue
networking calls directly to such printers without going through the spooler.)
Examples of the kinds of printers you can access via a network
are:
 
    LaserJet series of laser printers, such as the LaserJet 4Si
    The inkjet series printers, such as the DeskJets and PaintJets
    The System Printer operation (SPO) HP5000/C30 and C40 cut sheet laser
printers.
