The HP DeskJet follows a subset of the HP LaserJet command set.  There is a
LaserJet driver to work with Publishing Partner that is included with
Partner Fonts (by SoftLogic).  It works just fine with the DeskJet.

Also, you can buy an Epson (FX-80) emulation cartridge that works
great.  It has worked with all software that I have tried it with. 
It is slow printing sideways (for spreadsheets).
