Hi Norbert,

DEC LPS20, LPS32 and LPS17 printers were sold with the software and the license included.
There is no diference in software between those LPS printers.
The software you are looking for is called Printserver Software.
Compaq stopped supporting it april 2001. 
It exists in several flavours; for Unix, VMS, WNT etc.
It contains software to set up a boot host, to manage the printer,
and the operating system for the printer itself.
That operating system is called VAXELN.
I wonder if it's on layered prudocts CD's.
The printserver controller is a mVax (3100?) and it boots the same way all microvaxes do. 

I can give you two web addresses: 

http://www.compaq.com/products/printers/

http://www.montagar.com/hobbyist/

Good luck,

Joop Braamse

Hello and sorry for an off topic question.
I recently bought a DEC LPS20 printer through eBay
with little documentation. As I understand it the printer
contains a mVAX which net boots through mop protocol.
So far no problem but I did not get the boot image
file. Internet search did not help further.
Any idea where I could find the file?
Thank you,
Norbert
