Apart from the Apple LaserWriters, are there any other laser printers offering a Postscript interpreter. What are their relative merits? Any first hand experience? Manufacturers don't feel shy. Sorry if this is a recurrent enquiry - mail me and I will summarize to the net. Tony Begg (tony%ee.brunel.ac.uk@ucl-cs.arpa)

Dataproducts just came out with a PostScript version of their LZR-2600 which is based on a 26ppm Toshiba printer. The PostScript versions are: The LZR-2660, limited to US Legal, and the LZR-2665, US Ledger/ISO,A3. I will be getting one for evaluation this month. The only thing I know about it is that the PostScript(tm) engine can not keep up with the printer. As to how slow I do not know. The UK contact on a Dataproducts list is; Egham, GPO: 44-784-884777 Pete Lancashire ....!tektronix!tekig5!petel
