No, the HPII cartridges are very readily available, and cheap.

Don't you actua;ly need a printer with the driect
'video' interface
for those cards? For CX printers (Lasterjet, etc) that means removing
the formatter board and wiring the 34 pin header on the DC controlelr
board that conencted to the fomatter to a DC37 conenctor. And if you
want, wiring some status LEDs to the appropriate conenctor on the DC
controller. The result is a 'CX-VDO' printer.
For SX printers (Lasterjet II,. etc), the original way to get this
'video' interfce was to replace the formatter board iwth a buffer
board, whioch also includes the necessary DC37 socket. However, IIRC,
there wa a3rd party board that fitted the optiaonal interface slot on
Canon/HP formatter bords and which provided this interface whille
leavign the formatter in position. I have never seen this board, though.
Tall Tree used toi sell them
The problem with running a CX printer today is tht the
toner
cartridges are essentialyl unobtainium. I don't use the one on my PERQ for
this
reason.
How many times can they be refilled ?
(I've got
a few IIP's, but I don't want to deal with shipping
those.)
I suspec tthe origianl Laserjet is heaver.
quite a bit. the IIP (and IIIP) were lightweight "home" printers for people
who didn't want the size, weight, and price of the "real"
laserjets.
