I am considering buying either an NX1000C or an NX1000C Rainbow... Can anyone tell me what is good or bad about these printers? Are they of good quality? I don't need it for anything to do with business, but I may be using it for school quite a bit, and just general home printing (I also want to print the DOCS to the VI editor!)... Any recommendations would be appreciated. The main reason I am looking into buy one of these two printers is their price... I'm only 15, and they seem to be within my price range... Thanks in advance... -- joystyk@clmqt.marquette.Mi.US / Luposlipaphobia: the fear of being pursued Trebor Sux CBM rule / by timber wolves around a kitchen table I love ADL / while wearing socks on a newly waxed floor

I got the NX1000C for Christmas last year, and I like it...... the NLQ feature is really *great*! I use it with GEOS, but haven't found a driver for it (have been using the NX 10C driver, which is slow, but works ok) for the GEOS fonts. Michelle@cup.portal.com

I bought one two years ago for 149.95 I have not had any major problem with it except for a blown out LED indicator light. I would not recommend the NX1000C Rainbow. Although I never had color printer, I feel that a 9-pin color printer is not the best quality. If you really WANT a color printer, go for a laser or a 24-pin, they are much faster and have better resolution. One thing you might want to keep in mind: Check your local dealers and make sure they do service the NX1000C because it's a pain in the butt trying to ship a defected printer in for service. HL
