The test that I referred to was done by a U.K. university. The
area where every non-HP printer failed was in font downloading.
I don't have the time to track down the reference, although I'm
fairly sure that it appeared in UKTeX (back issues are online at
sun.soe.clarkson.edu and uk.ac.aston (for the UKers)). Incidentally,
the test predated the IID and IIP and possibly many other
"compatibles". The point was simply that one should make sure that
one's software works with the printer (even if you're buying an HP
since the software might have been tested on something else).
