I am in the process of converting all our engineering 6436-0101's (never
released externally) to 6436-0201's and our network of towers and PC's
and have spent several weeks with the 6436-0201 Printer Programmers
Manual. (D2-0192-A). The HP emulation is very, very good (even has the
flaws of the real laserjet).

Suggest you order the referenced manual. It is beautifully laid out (pat
on the back for our pubs group), uses lots of white space to separate
different topics/commands onto different pages and includes sections on
the details of programming the printer in all the available emulations.
It IS a COMPLETE replacement for the HP Laserjet Technical Reference
Manual I have been using for years.

I went ahead and posted but am also emailing my response.
