[net.micro.pc] Laser Printer Deal?

lwm@iuvax.UUCP (10/26/86)

From: Larry Meehan <lwm>

A friend of mine is looking for a laser printer to use with his IBM PC
clone (American XT).  After a bit of shopping, he has found a local store
who can offer him a QMS Kiss for $1750 plus shipping.  The Kiss is probably
a reasonable printer for him since he doesn't need to do full-page graphics
or anything very fancy.  Is this a good price?  Should he be looking at
something else?

In case this is really a great deal, the company selling it is:
	TexTutor
	Bloomington, IN
	(812) 334-2527

Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can offer.

The recent issue of PC Magazine has one of the KISS reviews. In addition,
there is a list of all the printer reviews that they have covered with
the issue that they wre reviewed in.
