Jeff Vance forwards a FAQ from Mariann Tymn:

>[many parts deleted for brevity]

>4. Are there any features of HP LaserROM that are not
>supported by HP Instant Information?
>
>The following LaserROM features will not be available in HP
>Instant Information:
>
>    -Support for other non-Postscript printers previously
>     supported by LaserROM (e.g. PCL)

Argh. Am I reading this correctly? I will not be able to print out
sections of my HP On-line Documentation on my HP lj4si/lj5si/etc
printers because we didn't acquire these printers with Postscript?

If this is so, then I find it quite ironic that the worlds largest
supplier of PCL printers will be publishing documents that can't
be printed on said printers. I better buy Adobe stock now, before
everyone else finds out and starts upgrading their HP printers to
support Postcript ;-).
