I installed the driver disks that came with the printer.  Just as a test,
I tried printing to a file in Win95,  ftping it to my linux box,  and
running "file" on it.  I got "data" back.  So I opened the file -- it has
a whole mess of ^@ at the front,  so delete them and ran "file" again ...
got back "HP Printer Job Language" ... ran "lpr" on it and it came out
gibberish.
