The Imagen is not the only laser printer working under UN*X, we have
the Symbolics version of the Cannon LBP-10 laser printer.  We have only
been running it for about a week so we don't have it doing handstands
yet, but so far so good.  We have software for using it with both TEX
and troff (no one here uses TEX though, but the demo files worked).
Our only problem right now is getting the supplies for it.  The local
Cannon people only think in terms of copy machines.  Our next step
is getting it to print the displays from out PERQ's and Lisp Machines.
