[comp.sys.apple] ImageWriter LQ: Is there an advantage???

IRPGMR7@OUACCVMB.BITNET (08/16/89)

Quick little question:

I just called an Apple dealer who told me that I'm unable to use the
24 pin on an Imagewriter LQ.  He said I would be better off to save
my money and that the ||gs would be unable to take advantage of the
24 pins and that the resulting output would be the same as an Imagewriter
2.  Can someone confirm this (I don't trust Apple dealers that much
any more, especially since my local dealer is still insisting that
there is only 1 disk in the System 5.0 package.) and if this is so,
can someone explain to me why Apple would bother making a special
driver for the LQ (In System Disk 4.0, that is, since I don't have 5.0
yet, either)

I would prefer personal mail since I'm sure this question has already
asked the question before.....  I'll post a digest when I get enough
answers....  It'll keep the load off the net....
