The HP LaserJet IIIP was introduced the week of 4/26.

This is not a planned replacement for the IIP but rather an addition
to the LaserJet family.  

From the info in a recent publication...  List price $1,595.
Same print engine as LaserJet IIP, but with performance enhancements, and
resolution enhancements. (Faster processor, Faster I/O, Dot scaling)

It is planned that the LaserJet IIP users will be able to purchase
an upgrade cartridge for their printers.  The cartridge will allow the
users to use PCL 5 on the LaserJet IIP.  The article says nothing about
the addition of the resolution enhancement.

The current list price of the IIP is $1,295
