I have a HP LJ IIIP.  I bought a postscript cartrige for it but about a
year ago some one suggested for various reasons that I no-longer remember
it might be better to use ghostscript and send PCL to the printer.  I did
this and it works great, the output is just as good as the Postscript
cartridge ever was, maybe better.

If ghostscript supports the LBP860 I would suggest you try it.  If you
need it I can send a copy of my lpd if file that detects postscript and
runs ghostscript.
