The distinction between true adobe postscript and clone postscript was a battle which was fought 20 years ago and is rarely ever an issue these days.
Xante first product was an accelerator board for the original laserwriters and HP laserjets, the original Xante Accel-a-Writer. It was the first use of a clone postscript.
ALL rip's for the epson 7880 are close postscript and one of the so called rip's isn;t even a postscript rip.
The problem with the HP 8150 is with the smoothness of the screens.
Looking for postscript level 3 compatibility is mostly an age test of the technology. Anything which is not PS3 is most likely an antique.
