[comp.sys.mac] Can the KX 1080 printer be used outside the US ?

I am hoping to take a Mac SE to Israel to help with the writing of a 
book I am working on. I despaired of taking a printer since my trusty
old battleaxe, an Imagewriter I, is large, heavy and otherwise unwieldy.
The Imagewriter 2 in addition to being all these things, is not able to be
run on 50 HZ type currents.  Soooo, the question is, is the Panasonic
KX 1080 printer that has been discussed here able to be run at 50 HZ, in
addition to running at 60 Hz ? Is the printer compatible with the Mac SE ?
Is the printer lighter and/or smaller than an Imagewriter--that is, are we talking about a printer that is very similar or is it closer say, to a small Epson
printer or something? Finally, where can I get to see one in NY City?

Thanks very much in advance to all.

The LINE-EATER ATE MY POSTING !

Actually, it was probably my fault--that line at the bottom was supposed to have
said "Is theprinter lighter and/or smaller than an Imagewriter--that is, are
we talking about a printer that is very similar or is it closer in mass say, to
a small Epson printer, or somesuch? Finally, where can I see one in NY City ?"

This system's vi seems to have a few quirks in it, or else I am not making the
best use of this terminal program.
