[comp.sys.cbm] Which printer is good?

mford@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu (Mark Ford) (01/14/91)

I want to buy a new printer, because I can no longer get ribbons for it.  It
is nowhere near being standard as far as ribbons go!

Anyway, I have seen ads in the Tenex catalog for the 
1. NX-1020 Rainbow   around $200.
2. NX-1001                  $159.95.

I will probably get flammed for starting a printer debate, but I would like
to know the opinions on any of the Star NX printers, (not just the ones I 
listed) or any other printers you have an opinion on.

Thank you very much.
Mark Ford.

I have the Star NX1000C Multi-Font.....  and it works well for me.  I use it 
with GEOS.....  which  I still can't find a driver for.  :(  (Anyone who has 
seen the driver for GEOS 2.0 PLEASE email me so I can give you my address!)

I like it 'cause of the print quality....  NLQ is nice and looks VERY 
typewritten!  It also works well with PrintShop and can produce graphics.

Well...... there's my two cents' worth!  :)
