Kelly I just got an LJ4. It didn't work with the old cable I had hooked to a DJ. I finally figured it out and got a new cable. I'm in the advertising agency business and the printout is so good I think I'll use it for setting type – don't tell my clients! I use Pagestream, FinalCopy and Word Perfect. Inasmuch as PS and FC create outline fonts and print in graphic format, I can't access all the nifty built-in fonts. Of course WP does not have a printerdriver for an HP/LJ4 so that's a problem. I am using LaserJet 500 soft Tms& Helv and get the built-in 12 times font which looks pretty good. What do you think the benefits would be to me to buy the PostScript option? Jon Byk
