GS has pcl3.  I selected the HP2000C printer and it installed 
pcl3, however, it would not print in color.  When I used the 
experimental apsfilter (7.0), it printed color on the test.

However, I cannot get it to print anything else, especially not 
with Star Office (which seems to have its own thing).  I'm 
dealing with them on that problem.
