While I do not have an exhaustive list, from my reading here and on
Genie's A2 Roundtable, the general feel is that most all HP DeskJets
will work with a IIgs - both P8 software (where user can change
printer codes) and GS/OS sw ( with either Harmonie or Independence).

These are the units I archived as working:

     HP DJ 5xx
     HP DJ 5xxC

     HP DJ 600
     HP DJ 600C
     HP DJ 660C

     HP OfficeJet

Note: The DeskWriter versions should work from GS/OS with the either
Harmonie or Independence.
