From: RSanders@DENVER.ARPA Is anyone out there willing to comment their use of the Apple Laserwriter with Transcript? (Transcript is the troff-to-Postscript software sold by Adobe). We are looking at getting a second laser printer, because our Imagen 8/300 is maxed out, and the Laserwriter/Transcript combo costs about 1/2 of a similarly equipped 8/300. One particular need I am struggling with on our 8/300 is complex graphics output (~100k vectors/page) from programs making CalComp plotter calls (almost have that one licked) and emitting Tektronix 4014 hi-res plot codes. Has anyone done something like this for the Laserwriter? -- Rex

I'm currently working on bringing up Transcript to work with the first
of 7 LaserWriters we are getting here at UCLA Computer Science.
I should have some comments about the task in about a week or so.
We currently have 2 Imagens (the wet process/ 240 DPI creatures).
