Dear user of the dvi2xx driver for the ibm3812 and the lj-family!
The new release (0.51) features in the following points:

The following items are changed since 0.50:
       - MakeTeXPK support:
         If a pk-file is not found on the fontpath the script
         MakeTeXPK (included in the distribution) is executed to
         generate the pk file in the requited magnification.
       - a bug fix for clipping 1 pixel to much on the paper edge
         (thanks to  TeX [email protected]
         (Christian Spieler)
       - better handling of large bitmap glyphs (reduced memory
         assumption esp. in dvilj2p)
       - vms support (thanks to Henk de Haan <[email protected]>)
       - various cleanups in the code
       - better handling of negative page numbers
       - support for 3b2 machines (strange c compiler)
       - support for LaserJet duplex printers such as the HP LaserJet
         IIId (option -d1 or -d2).
       - support for direct inclusinion of pcl graphics
         (thanks to Fred Hoare <[email protected]>, README.pcl)
       - support for LJ4 (600 dpi)
         (unknown spender)
       - support for DEC alpha machines (configured via Makefile)
       - a bugfix for certain older LaserJet clones, where some
         garbage was printed on top of the first page
         (Thanks to Rik Faith <[email protected]>)

included in the distribution
       - a sample bsd-stype printcap entry for SunOS (thanks to Ted
         Cox) and a sample lj3-filter written in Perl (evolved from
         Stefan Essers contribution in comp.lang.perl)
       - 2up.sty (from [email protected] (Timothy Van Zandt))
         which allows to print LaTeX documents in two-up style (two
         logical pages are printed on one landscape sheet).
         Useful in connection with dvilj2p (for LaserJet 2000, LaserJet
         IIP, LaserJet III and LaserJet IIIP) in connection with
         MakeTeXPK.
       - a README file for Dell Unix (Thanks to  Fred Appelman
