I don't know about the HP Laser Jet IIp, but I hust ordered a Panasonic
KX-P4450 Laser Partner from a mail order place in Santa Cruz CA. It came to
$1642 with COD,shipping,the 1 megabyte memory upgrade, and a 12 foot Centronics
parallel printer cable. And yes, UltraScript ST-1 is supposed to work with the
KC-P4450 since it has Laser Jet Plus emulation.

BTW, Panasonic has a toll free techincal support number. It is

	1-800-222-0582

I am going to call them and ask how hard it is to write a printer driver
for the 4450.

All in all, for the price seems like quite a deal!!
