Two possibilities that I can think of...

1) If you have the Aldus PCL driver, you can specify that the printer is a LJ II
and get two cartridges selected.  That allows a few more fonts (yeah, really a
stop-gap sort of "solution")

2) Pound on DataProducts (or anyone who is willing to write drivers) to 
build one for the printer.
