I complained of MIO errors on an HP 4050N printer when using
/usr/lbin/hplaserpsof, with certain files, repeatably but not
consistently. I asked for better solutions.

Many thanks to Ernie Labonte of DEC, er, Compaq, who provided me an
unsupported, unguaranteed filter named ppdof which works much better
than the supported one :-) This one uses PPD files and actually
enables all those nice options on the lpr command for duplexing, n-up,
tray selection, etc., and also does a nicer job separator page to boot.

For those listening who work for DEC, could you please include this
filter in future releases?
