Has anyone heard any rumours about a "WordPerfect" font cartridge for the HP LJII? A colleague said that they saw it mentioned in a WP printer driver. HP over the the phone knew nothing about it. Thanks in advance. M Volow, VA Medical Center, Durham, NC 27705 mvolo@ecsvax.UUCP 919 286 0411

As should be with vaporware, the vendors are not yet talking about future products. This product does not exist in production yet, as is being co-op developed by WPCorp & HP for the Laserjet series. Will include multiple fonts. Should be available 3rd or 4th quarter of 1989, but who knows. . Bob Willey . Computer Consulting Service uunet!consult!bob

Thanks >in advance. >M Volow, VA Medical Center, Durham, NC 27705 Take a look at the May 29, 1989 Info World, page 36. The article (looks like an HP product announcement) says the cartridge will be released next week. The phone number provided is 800-752-0900, for HP Inquiries in Cupertino, CA. The cost is supposed to be $195 for the Laserjet II cartridge. They will also offer a pair of Deskjet Plus cartridges for $140. Bruce Carlson
