I don't know if there's a board for your machine, but the HP LaserjetII
Printer has a Postscript upgrade which is called Jetscript. It adds
Postscript support to the HP PCL support. I know it works from a PC,
you can have Postscript (Apple Lasewriter Plus compatible) as well
as HP Laserjet format in the same printer at the same time.
