I got a DecLaser 3500 new in my office.
All I got from the VAX/VMS/NT admin guy (VMS 6.x)
is that it is connected to either \\printe\ln14-e5l
or TCP/IP www.xxx.yyy.zz Port 10001.

I could connect to this printer using smbprint (samba)
but the question came up in me "How does FreeBSD
cope with these TCP/IP printservers"?
