Hi Stephen,

I was given a HP LaserJet III that was being chucked out of an office (I was
also given the P166 it was attached to...), and I said I'd give it a go.
It's a great printer, faster and much better quality output than any inkjet
I've seen, even though the thing muct be years old, and the sheet counter is
up in the 40,000s. It prints perfect postscript directly from Wordworth, and
I wouldn't be without it now... It's old, and it's just the III model, not
the IIIP or IIIM, but it still does postscript. But for an inkjet, the Epson Stylus range are the bee's knees.
Oh, and on opening it up, I found it has an 8MHz 68000 in it - more powerful
than my 600 ;)

Probable because they all speak the same (or very similar) language,
postscript.
