Adobe's new HPII Laserjet Postscript Cartridge has hit the streets (and at
least one source is selling it for ~$250).  Printer memory requirement is low 
-- about 1.5Mb minimum.

However, I do have a question.  The Adobe ad says for "Hewlett Packard
Laserjet II (only)".  Do I read this as meaning not for IIP's?  If this
is so, does anyone know if a version will be coming out for the IIP?

As Adobe is also offering other fonts in other carts, I can also see the
major drawback of having only ONE cartridge port in the IIP  (although
the OEMs could just add more ROM into the single cart).
