[comp.periphs.printers] $995 JetScript Printer

perugini@gdc.portal.com (06/04/91)

I am considering purchasing the $995 JetScript Printer (true Adobe Postscript).
Is there anybody who has any first hand experience with this printer?  Are 
there any compatablity problems?  Am I missing the boat on something here 
or is this too good to be true?

For those of you who are not familiar with this printer, here's a brief
description:

  For $995 you get an 8 page-per-minute QMS JetScript controller and
  a Canon LBP-CX printer.  This printer uses true Adobe postcript.
  Months ago they were using refurbished canon printers, but since the
  sold out of these, they are now supplying new printers.  The controller
  card has 3 MB of RAM and a 16 MHz 68000 processor on board.

If anybody has one of these printers and can offer some advice, It would
be greatly appreciated.  I plan to use this printer mainly with 
Windows 3.0 applications.  Thanks in advance!
