It uses a Xerox engine...

If you get a manual, it's all covered in there.

Hmmm.  I haven't seen any, but the Model 160 is a postscript machine.

Hmm...I don't know of any, but doesn't it just use toner?  I have the same
printer here (tons, actually) and never put developer in it.

Call the support line at 213-333-2151.  They should be willing to help.
If you get someone, and they can't help you as far as the fonts go, let
me know, and I'll give you someone's name.  (provide me with the person
you talked tos name, for proof that you called <GRIN>).  There are at least
3 manuals for it, I think: User, Technical, and another.

You can get an HP Emulation cartridge for it.  Also Epson, and others.  It
also has in it, 2700 Emulation and Diablo 630...<G>

Good Luck!
