They will actually use all the old ;ENV= files in the HPENV.SYS group,
both for the 2680 and the 2688. They also come with some new ones
for good measure. There's a system facility which allows these PCL 4
printers to use (sort of) the old  environment files. Actually,
the environment files have been updated to work with the new printers
and the new system facility.
