I don't know if VAX 6000 prints ever made it out of the group
that built it - prints were supplied when you were expected to
swap a chip to fix a fault.

You can poke around on http://vt100.net/manx to find the various
VAX 6000 manuals that have made it out into the wild: no printsets
but plenty of maintenance manuals and info about the various
VAXBI and XMI boards.
