>Is the HP Laser IIP worth buying for personal uses?

I had one in my office at a previous job for some time and used QMS
UltraScript PC with it.  I am biased towards PostScript.

The IIP is a wonderful machine.  The output is very crisp, essentially
identical to that of the II.  The printer warms up very fast, so it is
surprisingly fast to get a one page document out of it (perhaps faster
than the LJII).  The only thing that I noticed is that it curles the
paper a bit more than some printers. 

As a PostScript vehicle, it is great, but I think that Apple and QMS
have cheaper solutions if you are about to buy a cartridge.
