Personally I'd recommend that you reconsider the architecture that you're trying to build, rather than reconsidering the specific devices that you're trying to fit into that architecture. I'm reading square pegs and round holes here.
Dumb terminals were designed when we didn't have anything better. Do you really want to hang many laserjets around on dumb terminals that cost less than the printers themselves? Do each of your end-users really require exclusive access to a laserjet? And do you really need to manually generate a lot of PCL? I understand the needs of smaller sites and that it's not easy to drag new cables around for a new printer, etc. These days a wireless setup will cost as much as the $100 manual that someone proposed. And it's much easier to generate XML or HTML and export it as PDF, or use some other more text-based methods that result in high quality printed output. I'm just suggesting that you think outside of the box for a moment and consider something different than what the site already has, rather than just replacing old methods with new hardware.
