	I have AT&T UNIX System V/386 (3.2.2) and am attempting to get it to 
 work with an HPLaserjet II with a postscript cartridge. I've tried to configure
 the printer through FACE but it only lets me select the "HPLaserjet". I know
 that there is a "ps" and a "postscript" file under the "/usr/lib/terminfo/p"
 directory - but I am unsure how to set them up, along with the HPLaserjet
 type of printer. I tried using the "lpadmin" command to specify a printer
 of type "HPLaserjet" and then use the "-I" command to specify the content
 type as "postscript". The manuals are *completely* worthless and don't
 give me any real information. Every time I try to send a file to "lp", the
 display on the laserjet simply shows the file being loaded (the file size
 in "K" increases) and then the "form feed" light flashes, and the file never
 prints.

	Is there anyone out here who can help me out??? This is driving me 
 nuts........
