Yes, it will work.  But, if you want to print to a HP laserjet or to
a PostScript printer, you have to dig deeper...

Rich Richardson has a package called Jetroff for the HP laserjet that is
simply wonderful.  It sits on top of the Uport stuff...

Elan has a package called eroff that generates either HP or PostScript.

Rich's is "shareware/low cost" and Elan's is ~$700, last time I checked...
