You probably need a ghostscript-based filter to convert postscript to PCL.
Maybe an owner of an HP printer could add more details ?

As PC and Amiga are of different byte order, you need a -current
kernel compiled with "options FFS_EI". Then, before moving the disks
around, you probably need to save the disklabel:
'disklabel xxx > disklabel_txt'
then move your disk, and restore the disklabel (in kernel memory only):
disklabel -R xxx disklabel_txt
This sould work.
