 I have MacPlus and a DeskJET printer. (NOT DeskJET plus) This bit of
info makes me feel a little better about my purchase choice. (I bought the
thing long before the introduction of the DeskJet plua or Writer )
Apparently, you don't get the full benefit of the faster printer until
you put it on a II-class machine.

  What I'd really like to know is why HP doesn't release their printer
driver for use with the DeskJet? It seems to me that all they'd have
to do is change the speed to 19.2 KBaud, and they'd be in business. I
am presently using the HPDJ public domain driver, and am not particuliarly
satisfied with the results. If HP doesn't come out with a driver, I'll probably
wait for system 7.0, and hope that a sys 7.0 compatible DeskJet driver
will appear.
