I will be purchasing color hardcopy devices for my Masscomp 5500 system, which has an Aurora graphics terminal. I want both lower quality color plots for working purposes -- such as thermal transfer technology, and publication-quality photographic prints -- such as Dunn or Matrix camera systems provide. If anyone has experience with any such analog (or digital) color hardcopy devices please let me know. Dean Churchill Dept.

We have a CH 5301 which makes A-size prints. There's also one available which makes B-sized prints. They call them "hardcopiers". If you call your Seiko rep, you can probably talk him into sending a sample print - they're quite good, and we're thinking they might be good enough to use for publishing... Chuck Gendrich
