Print codes for HP Inkjet

[Joe Chasan]

FP comes with some HP inkjet (deskjet) drivers, and the inkjets mostly 
used to be PCL3 back in the day, but I don't think that's the case anymore.

I have never seen this printer, but HP website specs say its PCL3 GUI
which I do not think is the same at all as PCL3 and is more like 'host
based' windows drivers.   Perhaps someone with more experience with this
printer can chime in here.

The easiest solution by far is make sure they are on a recent filePro
version with PDF printing built in.  Print to that and either go interactive
with the output and let them decide if it's worth wasting paper on, or 
trigger filepro to print using the default windows pdf handler in the
printer config setup of filepro.

If they are not on a recent enough filePro this alone should be enough to
sell them on upgrades.  You no longer need to worry about filePro's printing
not matching windows drivers anymore, you can sell it as a 'green solution'
since much printed stuff gets trashed pretty quick anyway.  Add to that the
ability to email the output from your PDF reader and it's a home run.

Of course Bob Rasmussen's print-wizard also adds some of this functionality if 
they are dead set against upgrade, also with extra features they may be
able to take advantage of at some point.
