HP Laserjet 1300

A replacement for the LJ 1200 printer series with improved speed and print quality. The engine uses the same parts as the LJ 1150 - a cut down version with PCL 5e or host based printing. The LJ 1300 based model is fast enough to be shared and so there are network and memory upgrade options. A second tray was available as an option.
