The
HP LaserJet IIP, IIP Plus, and IIIP were way ahead of the pack between
1989 and 1991 when they came out, and many of the advanced technologies
that made these printers special then have become standard features
since that time. When they were introduced they were smaller, faster,
and lighter than anything else on the market. They were the first to
make use of a charged roller system instead of corona wires. This was
the technology that eliminated the need for ozone filters, because
the new system did not produce harmful ozone gases. You can still
benefit from owning one of these printers, like new but for a
fraction of the original cost.
The LaserJet IIP has PCL 4, both serial and parallel I/O, and a
10 MHz 6800 CPU. The LaserJet IIP Plus has has PCL 4, a parallel
I/O only, and went to a 16 MHz CPU. The LaserJet IIIP moved on to
PCL Level 5, with serial and parallel I/O, and the 16 MHz CPU.
