I'm not too hopeful about that removing the problem, given that I can easily change the rendering of my laser printer by fiddling with the PostScript hints. When I started collecting fountain pens (before making fonts), I learned quickly that a particular pen, adjusted (hinted?) in a particular way, filled with a particular ink, and writing on a particular paper is always a unique (and usually disappointing) combination.
