   I believe they do.  Using the old Ghostscript uniprint driver for the 740
   produced usable about on my 750, and the programming documentation contains
   several versions of a few of the commands.

In softweave mode, or microweave?

   I think in most cases the new commands only save a few bytes in transfer.
   On new command replaces several of the older ones.  At this stage,
   I don't think it's so important to include support for them.  The speed
   increase should be really marginal.

OK, fair enough.
