I am sure most people have heard about the new laserjet.  I don't intend that
this become a commercial for HP, but I am interested in anyone's experiences
(albiet short) with the new printer.  A few of the things I have found out:
-1 meg is standard
-uses the same memory boards as the IIP
-Pacific Data Products IIP boards will not be compatible unless shipped after
 Mar 31 (I called PDP, because I wanted to find out if we could use them)
-Has font scaling
-Smooths curves
-Bitstream's fonts will work as far as the III is compatible with the II,  I
had a real hard time understanding the person there, so I think they will
work the same way they do on the other lasers.


If my wording is imprecise, you'll have to excuse me I am not interested in
typography.

Jeers to Digital Review and other magazines that don't publish a company's
800 number for us lazy type who don't want to have to call 800-info.
