Just bought this printer because it was PostScript, yet it's turned up and HPs idea of PostScript is bundling Adobe PressReady 1.0 with it. Great - so I pay a fair bit extra, and get a discontinued, unsupported OS9 only application. Thanks a lot HP.

If it's any consolation, OS X Panther will be able to print PostScript to ANY printer. (And share it out as a PS printer onto the network.)

Really? That's cool. Mind you the app I need postscript for is quark 4 in classic. But I could print to disk I guess and distill it. Or just try pressready I guess.
