OpenOffice Printing Follow-Up

OK, so I decided to upgrade to Ghostscript 7.05 anyway and installed the HP hpijs 1.2 driver. Actually, the upgrade to GS 7.05 was relatively painless. After tweaking some settings, I determined that using the 600x600 Grayscale setting in the hpijs driver allows for lightning-fast and very crisp printing with both WordPefect 8 for Linux and OpenOffice 1.0.1. It took a little effort, but the results are more than worth it. If only all hardware manufacturers would support their products as well as HP does now (and Epson has for a long time)!
