Want driver software for HP Laserjet Plus

I am looking for driver software that runs on both an AT&T UNIX
PC (7300) and on an AT&T 3B2 for the HP Laserjet Plus laser
printer.  The current driver we have does not use the downloadable
font feature, and as a result, we get many pages that don't format
correctly because the Laserjet gives up with a "21" error (page
too complex to print).  Free software is preferred, but we would
also consider a quality commercial package at a reasonable price.

[[Editor's note: And in a subsequent message...]]

I would like to correct the previous posting I made.  Instead of
"driver software", what I really want is a filter that takes
ditroff output and converts it to the bitstream needed for the
HP Laserjet Plus.  I would like a filter that takes full advantage
of the Laserjet _Plus_, so that I stop getting "21" errors (page
too complex) whenever I print anything using non-cartridge point
sizes.
Once again, either public domain software, shareware, or commercial
software is welcome (provided the cost/benefit ratio is reasonable).
Thanks.
