I am leaving for Japan in a couple of weeks to take up a postdoc position
at the University of Tsukuba. My problem is that while I have my own Mac II
I have no PostScript laser printer (it is an easy thing to use the University
of Illinois's printers they are everywhere). I have a minimal research
budget in Japan which I could use in part for buying a printer. The problem
is that from what I understand it is very difficult to get a Japanese
institution to purchase an American product from overseas -- so I'll probably
have to buy something from within Japan. (No comments on the purchasing
limitations -- It is not my policy after all). The $3000 question is then
what PostScript printers are available in Japan - and which is the best deal?
