Ben,

In fact, Hewlett-Packard issued two different Adobe PostScript SIMMs for the LaserJet IIIsi. The first one was a PostScript Level 1 SIMM produced before Adobe released PostScript Level 2. A second SIMM supporting PostScript Level 2 became available not long afterwards. Both products were sold only via Hewlett-Packard and were never directly sold by Adobe.

Based upon the 52.3 version number on the test page, I can with 100% certainty confirm that you have the original PostScript Level 1 SIMM. Hewlett-Packard no longer sells any LaserJet III parts (except for toner cartridges). If you really need the PostScript Level 2 SIMM, you might try eBay or similar outlets.
