Hi

I noticed that this printer was written up in the "First Looks"
section of the latest PC Magazine.

 I also noticed that in the first review I saw of the HPIII in PC Week,
 they noted that their bitmap output was of low quality due to a 
 "bug" in the HPIIIP PCL5 language. (!)

 I have read two or three other reviews that didn't mention similar
 problems.  Who's right? Or did PC Week just get a >real< early version
 of this printer?

 PS: HPIIIPs were selling here for $1059 last week.
