Can I replace the controller in my Laser Jet 2 with one of these QMS 
controllers and end up with a real PostScript printer or do I still need 
a PC type system to control it?  It would be really nice to have a stand-
alone printer that doesn't need the PC.  Does anyone know how much one
of these controllers cost?

Thanks,
