Hey Jim, 

Cool stuff! 
I'm available Friday after 5pm and would be glad to help.
Let me know where and what time you guys will be moving.
My number just in case: (650) 387-6084

I tried to configure the printer's Jetdirect ethernet interface and couldn't get it to work.
I had a spare Jetdirect card, plugged it in and was able to configure the printer for my network. I loaded the XP Postscript and HPGL drivers on my Win 7 machine and successfully printed a schematic with HPGL and my schematic capture program and a poster with Postscript and Irfanview.

The colors of the poster were too dark and I don't know whether that's because of the bond paper or the printer profiles.  I'm hoping someone else will be able to sort that out.

In any case, Rob has offered to provide a truck to move the printer on Friday.  I'm available to help and we'll need two more bodies.  I can't remember what time Rob will be available so maybe he'll let us know.
