HP probably does, but we purchased a cartridge from Pacific Data Products
called PacificPage. Ours is compatiable with "IBM and IBM compatible
computers", although I'm pretty sure they offer it for other platforms
as well. The catch is, is that one needs at least 2.5 Mbytes of resident 
printer memory.  BTW, Pacific sells memory upgrade boards in a variety of 
flavors, as well as several other types LaserJet II cartridges.

Don't know if it yet, we were waiting until after the first of the year
to order a memory upgrade  :-(
