There is a product called LASERSTART which will allow you to use an
HP Laserjet on a Macintosh.  According to the info I have, it is suppose
to make "the LaserJet completely compatible with the Macintosh computer."
The information goes on to say that it works with all software using the
Mac printing standards like MacWrite, MacPaint, MS Word, etc.  I haven't
tried the product, but only have an information sheet.  The product is
available from:

		Softstyle, Inc.
		7192 Kalanianaole Hwy., Suite 205
		Honolulu, HI 96825
		(808)396-6368

I heard about the article from an information sheet put out by HP about
connecting the Laserjet, ThinkJet, and just about the whole line of HP
plotters to a Macintosh.  I got the sheet by sending in a reader response
card to an article HP had in MacWorld (I don't know what issue).

I hope this helps!  If you decide to get it, please followup to the net
as far as its usefulness.  I might be interested in getting a Laserjet
in the future (sure is a whole lot cheaper than the LaserWriter).
