[comp.sys.mac.hardware] MacPrint and JetLink Express

lorner@ecst.csuchico.edu (Lance Orner) (03/20/91)

Alright, I'd be the first to admit that I haven't kept up with this group
lately, so with my luck, somebody already asked this a week ago.  But, here
it goes...

With this whole craze over the HP DeskWriter, ink-jet printing has become 
very popular.  So, people that getting DeskJets from their PC-using
cousins are trying to get in the craze also.  But, how do you connect a Mac
and a DeskJet?

Actually, I've been using a DeskJet with my Mac (with ATM) for about a year, 
and have really loved it, with the driver available on Sumex.  But a friend
and I were discussing the advantages of MacPrint and JetLink Express, and
from my endpoint, I'm having a hard time telling the difference between the
two.

But somebody out there must have them.  What are the pros and cons for 
MacPrint and JetLink Express, or any other driver avaliable?  Which
is fastest?  Which print sideways?  Which work with SuperLaserSpool?

After Joe and I jump up and down with all of the wonderful responces we
hope to get, we'll see what we can do if sumerization is needed.

Thanks.
