HP 500 : PS or not?

[Anonymous]

I'm running AC 7.0 r3 on a pc (xp pro), and I'm going to buy a plotter. I've decided to buy the HP 500 with HP-GL/2. My problem is that I don't know if should get the PS model or the simple one. I'd prefer not to spend more money buying the Post Script model, but I wonder if the PS is needed for good plots from Archicad and Plotmaker.
Please, I'd like your advice. What are the advantages, if I buy the PS model?
Thank you.

That works great too. As long as they don't have any specific pens / linewidths they like to assign on the plotter. I've had more people scream at me about that. . .lord knows why. YOU CAN SET LINEWEIGHT IN THE APPS NOW. . .it's been that way since. . .oh. . .1990? . . .but I digress. . .
