Running Adobe's 1991 PostScript Interpreter in the Browser
The HP C2089A “PostScript Cartridge Plus”, a 1991 add-on for the LaserJet II/III, adds PostScript Level 2 support through Adobe’s own reference interpreter (version 2010.118) on a 2 MB ROM.
Thirty-five years on, that ROM is still a current PostScript implementation: it renders the language correctly, and the language hasn’t changed.
The PostScript interpreter, fonts, halftone, and banding all run from cart ROM, working out of formatter RAM.
We have the cart ROM, not the LaserJet’s mainboard ROM, and no print engine.
