This is a set of pictures suitable for printing on a line printer.
uudecode and uncompress the files then feed them to your line printer.
Note that the print files are formatted with ASA (ANSI) carriage
control characters in column 1. A '1' means new page, a ' ' means
print text on next line and '+' means overprint this line on the
previous one.
The Berkeley line printer spooler supplies a switch for a filter to
convert this format to whatever your printer requires (-f). Unfortun-
ately, they don't supply the filter itself.
I wrote a simple filter to work with one of our printers (ffilter.c).
From looking at the manuals for our Printronix P600, though, I don't
see any way to write a filter that will work for it.
