I venture to pose this problem after not finding an answer in FAQ and
the Supplement thereto: Having turned a TeX file that includes PostScript
fonts and graphics into PostScript, how does one print out on an HP LaserJet
III that does not have a PS cartridge?

Two possibilities seem to be: (a) Purchase a commercial PS interpreter
such as Ultrascript or Freedom of Press (I'm using an MSDOS 80486);
(b) Purchase commercial fonts for the Ghostscript interpreter, if they
are available in a compatible form.

Comments from anyone who has tried these routes would be much appreciated.
