This is MY opinion, not that of the company for which I work. The HP Deskjet is the way to go only if cost it at extreme premium. If you must have postscript, you could get an (software) emulation package, but this approach is SLOW, SLOW, SLOW. But then again, so is the DeskJet when you're used to even the slowest of lasers. Since the LaserJet IIIP has just been announced, look for a bargain price on the IIP in the next few months. The IIP is amazingly sturdy, and has stood up for us printing perhaps 3000 pages/month. You can buy a postscript cartidge for the IIP, which gives not the cheapest, but a reasonably priced PS solution. I haven't seen any problems with this, yet. The new Oki LED printer seems like a good deal, especially if you can get it below list, but I have no personal experience with it.
