Elan's product includes a "debugged" & enhanced version of DWB 2.0 in 
addition to the postscript and hp laserjet printer drivers.  I use it
with my Panasonic KXP-4450 laser partner and have had no problems with it.

I don't think any of the stock DWB packages support the hp laserjet or 
postscript printers.  You need to get one of the various add-on packages
from third party vendors.
