- Description: hp4laser is a shell script print filter for "lpr", "LPRng", and is also a System V "lp" spooler model. It automatically handles switching between Postscript, PCL and HP-GL modes as needed by the input files. It also supports most options of the HP LaserJet IV printers (and probably works with later HP printer as well). With this package installed, the user can specify options like "manualfeed", copies, page ranges to print, etc. from the "lp" or "lpr" command line. The filter also displays the name of the user printing the current job on the printers display. This filter runs with all the popular Unix printer spoolers, making it ideal for a shop where there is a mix of Unixen.

- Platforms: Unix or Linux. The system V lp spooler or the LPRng spooler are recommended. If the laserjet does not have the Adobe Postscript SIMM installed, then ghostscript will be needed if Postscript files are to be printed.
