I am interested in purchasing a HP LJ IIP to replace my aging dot-matrix
and daisy wheel printers, but have a few questions regarding the LJ II series.


	1) Everything I've read about the IIP claims it's identical to the
	   II except for the page-per-minute output. In fact InfoWorld gave
	   the IIP a higher rating than the II due to the fact the IIP gives
	   you extra fonts (actually the same amount of fonts, but extra in
	   the fact that they are rotatable).  Are these claims correct?  
	   I plan on using the IIP at home so the ppm rating doesn't bother me.
	   Am I really getting a II albeit at a slower speed ?

	2) Why didn't HP allow for Proprinter/Epson emulation in the II ? What
	   is necessary to allow my PC to do Epson compatible graphics (ie
           graphics mode screen dumps)?  

	3) What does it take to do Postscript emulation. Can I use postscript
	   compatible programs and features on the LJ with this capability?


	4) Are these 3rd party "multi-font" cartridges all they are cracked up
	   to be ?  Any recommendations on which ones are the best?

	5) Im starting to see public domain/shareware LJ fonts becoming 
	   available. What does it take to download these soft-fonts to the
	   LJ.

	6) How is the LJ memory upgradable?  Memory board or just by adding
	   addition RAM chips ?   Considering the above factors how much memory
	   should I consider having (considering I do graphics, would like to 
	   one or two softfonts resident and would like to do Proprinter
	   emulation)?



	I know many of these questions are based on generalities but  any help
	would be appreciated!
