Integral Data Systems Prism 132 printcap needed

Dear Spots,

We recently came across two Integral Data Systems Prism 132 dot matrix
printers and would like to use them on a network of Sun-3 and Sun-4s for
(very) low-quality output.  Unfortunately, the *manual* for the printers
has not been found.  Does anyone out there have a working printcap for
this printer?

When we use a generic dot-matrix printcap we get lots of funny characters,
which suggests that some sort of parity/baud rate/stop bits setup is
incorrect.  Without the manual, we're flying blind.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
