   A user department here has acquired 2 brand new HP LaserJet 5si
   printers _without_ the postcript option! Now, they want to utilize
   all its features (like duplex printing, Nup, tray selection, etc.)
   from a DUNIX host (v 3.2C and v4.0B).

   What is the best way to accomplish this? There are no drivers for
   this printer in /usr/lbin.

   Without postscript, the printers can only be programmed using HPCL.
   If we know the HPCL codes for these various options, how could we
   program the host to send them to the printer with every print job?

   Any lead in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.

   Thanks in advance,
