My first recommendation is that you avoid Hewlett Packard and go with 
something that is true PostScript. If you are at all serious about what 
you're doing it is a necessary and extremely valuable standard. An HP will 
be an albatross to you if you progess any further than office memos and 
resumes.

If you are stuck on HP, then I really can't help you. I abandoned that path a
long time ago. If you are interested in something beyond HP technology,  email
me and I'll throw some more suggestions at you.
