FWIW I have both 4L and 5 (*not L) . I have had no problems with the 4L 
over the years but only with 95A & B.  The HP5 runs off a Win98SE system 
at the moment but has run attached to Win95A, B, Win NT 4 and Win XP 
with no problems and over a P to P network of all of these.  XP needed 
no additional drivers - was recognised immediately.

Sorry I can't speak for Win 2000

The HP5 has far better bitmap graphics, being 600 dpi against the 300 of 
the 4L
