+    Postscript level 2 out of the box, parallel and USB connection,
+    1200n with ethernet connection, scan extension available.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    For basic printing functionality use the Postscript PPD. For
+    advanced functionality such as printer status and maintenance
+    features, use the &lt;a
+    href=&quot;http://hplipopensource.com/&quot;&gt; HPLIP
+    driver&lt;/a&gt; (which includes HPIJS). &lt;p&gt;
+
+    This printer is a good choice for a cheap laser printer,
+    especially when you print a lot of text documents, as letters,
+    documentation, manuals, ... for these documents it is really fast,
+    as advertized by HP. But when using it on complicated graphics
+    (web pages rendered by Konqueror, photo &quot;convert&quot;ed to
+    PostScript with ImageMagick) in PostScript mode, it is very slow
+    and can easily run out of memory. If you use it in PCL mode, it is
+    fast in both text and graphics printing. Therefore we recommend to
+    use this printer with a Ghostscript driver like
+    &quot;pxlmono&quot; or HPLIP.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    Here is a somewhat longer
+    review from Robert (racsw at frontiernet dot net):&lt;p&gt;
+
+    &lt;i&gt;My testing was done on a PIII / 600Mhz machine with 256K
+    of RAM installed running Mandrake Linux 8.1.  While I intended to
+    use this printer as a USB connected device, I was never successful
+    at getting it to work properly, and so switched over to a parallel
+    port connection.  In fairness, I don't believe this is the
+    fault of the printer itself. I see no
+    reason why it shouldn't work on USB (&lt;/i&gt;ed: Mandrake
+    8.2 configures this printer.
+    automatically&lt;i&gt;).&lt;p&gt;
+
+    IMO, the 1200/1200se is an excellent high-volume document printer,
+    and those folks like myself that need to print the normal volumes
+    of documents, How-To's, Installation procedures, etc, that a
+    typical Linux user requires will find this printer an excellent
+    choice.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    The printer itself comes with 8Mb of memory onboard, with a 100
+    pin DIMM slot capable of another 64Mb, for a total of 72Mb. In the
+    testing I performed with and without this additional memory
+    installed, I could find no difference in speed either way.  But
+    for those who feel they want this memory anyhow, I would advise
+    you purchase the Kingston module from &lt;a
+    href=&quot;http://www.pcconnection.com/&quot;&gt;http://www.pcconnection.com/&lt;/a&gt;
+    for $39.00. HP wants a whopping $470.00 (more expensive than the
+    printer itself, 12x the price of the Kingston memory) for the same
+    module.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    For those wanting to print graphics on this machine, I would
+    suggest an Inkjet printer instead like a DeskJet or the popular
+    and proven Epson Stylus C80. If attempting to print a WYSIWYG
+    rendition of a web page, I would make two suggestions.  First,
+    don't use Konqueror.  Konqueror has two disadvantages.  For one,
+    there is no selection for GreyScale, which, when used, cuts the
+    printing time down from 10 - 15 seconds to about 2 - 3.  Secondly,
+    Konqueror also does some strange things with the image, which,
+    when printed, will render your copy hard to read with respect to
+    font sizes and such.&lt;p&gt;
+ 
+    Here's what OpenPrinting founder Grant Taylor
+    says:&lt;p&gt;
+
+    &quot;Konq appears to print using a Qt canvas widget feature whereby the
+    canvas widget unifies the fonts - you'll see it flicker into
+    small font for a moment - and generates equivalent ps code.
+    Oddly, it unifies the fonts to some weird 6-point font that's
+    mostly useless on paper; this is what you saw.  One can only hope
+    they'll fix this in KDE3.&quot;&lt;p&gt;
+
+    I tested most of the browsers on this printer, and by far and away
+    the most readable, highest quality WYSIWYG printing was from
+    Netscape.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    But that's not what this printer is designed for. For
+    documentation and online manuals, it's hard to
+    beat. It's very fast, quiet and smooth.  Contrary to another
+    user's report, I found the paper tray well constructed and
+    easy to insert. It's strength was evidenced by finding my
+    10lb (near 5 kg) house cat sitting on it one afternoon.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    As far as the rendering speed is concerned, I think it's
+    fine.  HP advertises a 10 second print time for this machine, and
+    as long as you're not using Konqueror, I was able to meet this
+    time consistently.  If the user selects &quot;GreyScale&quot;
+    instead of color for their particular application, the time takes
+    a drastic nosedive to 2-3 seconds, with the same image on the
+    page as you would have seen if you had selected &quot;Color&quot;
+    instead.  This 10 second time was also verified by another 1200
+    user running SUSE 7.3.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    If this printer takes longer to print, it's apparently not
+    the internal rendering logic at fault, but the browser or
+    application used instead.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    &lt;/i&gt;[...]&lt;i&gt; I think recommending this printer to
+    others is a safe bet. It is working perfectly, and as long as I
+    use it for what it's intended, it does it's job quickly
+    and quietly. &lt;/i&gt;[...]&lt;i&gt; People who want to print
+    graphics would probably not select a LaserJet of any variety,
+    unless it's for proofing.  And then, it becomes a function of
+    the application that creates and sends the job to the printer that
+    determines what comes out on the page.  This I have proven after
+    all these tests.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    I would also say that I used the CUPS printing system for the
+    majority of my testing, and it seems to work fine.  There was no
+    bad test results that I achieved that I could attribute to the
+    CUPS system itself.  Usually, with Netscape, Mozilla, Adobe
+    Acrobat, etc, I would specify &quot;qtcups&quot; as the print
+    command. Using &quot;lpr&quot; worked as well with no discernible
+    difference.&lt;p&gt;
+
+    I give &quot;two thumbs up&quot; for this printer for sure, and because of
+    the $399 price tag, I can now justify the speed and cost-per-page
+    advantage of owning a high-volume LaserJet for home
+    use.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;
