a. The following plotter models can be configured to the Series 700
parallel interface: 7440A, C1631A, C2859A, C1620A, C1633A,
C3170A, C1625A, C2847A, C3171A, C1627A, C2848A, C3180A,
C1629A, C2858A, C3181A
b. Specifying CentIf causes CharDrv to be included in the kernel.
c. c#t#d# derives from the hardware path, as shown in ioscan output:
c# is the card instance of the ext_bus class of interface card to which
the plotter is attached, t# is the target number, d# is the device
number.
d. The following plotter models can be configured to the Series 800
HP-PB parallel interface: 7550B, C1600A, C1601A, C1620A,
C1625A, C1627A
e. Specifying lpr2 causes sio, pfail, and pa to be included in the
