[comp.sys.amiga] Yet another AMAX question

echarne@orion.cf.uci.edu (Eli B. Charne) (06/17/89)

  How is the output quality of the 'epson' printing?  Do the fonts look nice?
  (read: better than the Amiga's font output, which I am currently ashamed of)

                                                                Thanks
                                                                  -Eli

	It's great.  Wonderful.  Better than the vast majority of Amiga
programs.  Notable exception: Pagestream.  However, you cannot print in
Mac "Best" mode, as the ImageWriter II uses a 144dpi scale for that, and
the other Epsons don't do that, ergo "best" printing looks oddly compressed
in all the wrong ways.  But "Faster" quality still looks great.  Wonderful,
as far as I'm concerned.
