Hello all,
        
Can I use HP LaserJet 5P or 5MP on Alpha3000/300 (OSF/1 v2.1).

Here are the specs:
Resol.: HP LJ 5P/5MP:
        600x600dpi with HP REt
        ....
Lang.: 5P: HP PCL 5 with MEt
        5MP: Adope PS L2 with AMBt
             and Enhanced HP PCL 5 with MEt
             
Memory: 5P: 2MB with MEt.
        5MP: 3MB with AMBt.

*Interfaces*: Bi-directional, IEEE 1284-compliant
             parallel ports,IrDA-compliant wireless
             infrared port;
             (5MP) LocalTalk port.

You can get more info from
              http://www.hp.com/home.html

As you know, the Alpha3000/300, has serial port and don't has a
parallel port. This printer will be hooked directly to the Alpha.

If it possible, what I have to warry about?

Any comment will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Mostafa
