[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Wide carriage printers for the Mac

pejacoby@mmm.serc.3m.com (Paul E. Jacoby) (04/24/91)

I'm looking for information on wide-carriage printers for the Mac.
Specifically, I'd like an Imagewriter LQ _without_ the 'Printer from
Hell' syndrome! :-)

We are looking to do output from programs like MicroPlanner X-Pert which
make huge/wide charts. Color capability would be nice, but is not
mandatory. Good paper-handling is a MUST (we have had too many bad
experience with the LQ in this area). AppleTalk capable would be nice,
but again is not mandatory.

Opinions on Mac specific items, as well as interfacing to
Epson-compatibles is desired.  If you have experience with a particular
printer/interface/software combination, please drop me a line at the
address below.  I'll summarize to the net in a week or so.

Thanks much.
