Wanted: filter for /etc/printcap to drive an HP LaserJet printer

Hello, world:  We recently attached an HP Laserjet to a cisco terminal server.
The terminal server provides a remote socket over the ethernret and we have
successfully added Apple LaserWriters in this fashion.  Now we have the HP
and we can send files to it via some programs that we have, but we don't have
a filter that we can use with our /etc/printcap.  Does anyone know where I can
get one?  Does anyone have an HP Laserjet on their Unix system?  Can you point
me to vendors, ftp's, or at last resort, good systems programmers to contract?

Many thanks for any help you can offer.
