Hi......I still have saved on disk the opsting you made the day you purchased
your Pansonic printer.........I went out and finally bought the HP LJ IIp..
price was the major consideration......also I had planned on getting the 
EPSON EPL 6000 that is 2 ppm fatser nd had 2 trays and 2 cartridge slots..
but the problem was that on calling Pacific Page as wella sEpson it was
discovered that the Epson would not support the Postscript cartridge from
Pacifig Page :-(......so I have the IIp.....

I see in you rposting a mention that Wordperfect supports soft fonts on your
4450.......I wonder if soft fonts are supported for the series II also in
WP4.1............would apprecitae your input.....

I am also trying to get advice on which of the 2 HP drivers for Spectre to get
the one that is Jetlink or the other called MacPrint....have you had a 
chance to try them out yet/?

I wonder if with both of them we are stuck with the fonts they come with r can
I use the usual Mac fonts available fro  Macwrite and MacDraw etc? This is
IMportnat if I am to invest in the s/ware and the GCR......

Hope to hear from you  soon....

REgards
