FYI
At the TCU broadcast today, HP is saying 2nd quarter of '96 for MPE/iX 5.5,
which will have network printing *only* if you have Netware/iX.
 
Later in '96, they will add, via an Express release, network printing via
tcp/ip.
 
Both work with HP's jetdirect cards in printers or external boxes.
 
Thay also hinted that lpr might be coming via an update to the Posix shell
from the supplier of the shell (MKS, I think).
