No new printer model with Adobe PostScript has �PostScript Level 2.� Maybe some emulations do and even those would be fairly obsolete.

There are a number of optimizations in PostScript 3, especially for rendering of gradients and images that make PostScript 3 important. And it shouldn't be costing you anything more, either. Note that you should be very careful about any printers that have �emulation of PostScript� as opposed to �Adobe PostScript 3.�
