The HPLJ IIP is not HPGL compatible.  Niether is the HP LJ II.  HPGL is
HP's plotter language.  You can get a cartridge from Pacific Data ("Plotter
in a Cartridge") that will allow you to send plotter output to the HPLJ II.
This cartridge may also work on the HPLJ IIP.  Contact Pacific Data to be 
sure.

The HPLJ II's native language is called PCL.  The IIP is compatible with 
PCL.
