  We have just  purchased a  new Tally MT660  printer for  our uVAX  4.2
(soon to be  4.3) system.   Currently I'm working  on modifying the  lpr
filter (a modified  /usr/lib/lpf) to  take advantage  of this  printer's
underlining  and  overstrike  capability.    It  also  is  able  to   do
compression, letter quality  mode, ,  bar codes,  block characters,  dot
graphics, etc.

  If anybody has already done this or have any examples of how they  use
this printer to it's fullest potential or anything that might help would
greatly speed things up.  The filter  I'm working on now should be  done
soon but I  still would like  to get copies  or hints on  what you  did.
						    Thanks.
