With NeXTSTEP 3.0, I no longer have to manually download fonts to my
Canon LBP8-Mark III when printing documents with strange fonts. The
NeXT automagically recognizes which fonts are available and downloads
those that aren't.

However, I believe that this requires that your printer be a NeXT computer,
and running NS3.0, which mine is. Other wise, you are SOL.
