Comments

For basic printing functionality use the Postscript PPD. For advanced functionality such as printer status and maintenance features, use the HPLIP driver (which includes HPIJS).

Only 800K of the first 1M SIMM is available for PS, the rest is a ROM interpreter. A 2nd 16M SIMM is recommended. Standard EDO or fast page SIMMs do not work. This printer ejects a blank page if ^D is received. This is unlike the 4MP. Magicfilter-1.2 setup: copy ljet4m-filter and replace the word 'postscript' by 'cat'.

Consumables/Refills: cartridge
