4214 - LaserJet 4 Plus

We've got a LaserJet 4 Plus configured as a 4214 (model 2) printer.  At the
top of the first page of anything we print, we get a series of ASCII-looking
symbols.  The printer attaches to the parallel port off the back of a dumb
IDEA 5250 terminal; the terminal is attached via twinax.

Also, I've defined an 88 line per page & 8 lines per inch output for one
report, and it prints at 6 lines per inch, causing the last 22 lines of the
88-line page to overflow onto the next page; it prints in the desired portrait
mode and we get all 132 characters across just fine.

I've been out of hardware configuration too long to remember where to start
looking for this.  Hints would be greatly appreciated.
