Hi I find the HP DESKJET 500 more than a match for output of lasers. I even get decent output from refilled cartridges. The dots tend to be less noticable since the ink bleeds a bit. Phyle Thee McNasty Denials as usual.

From article <20059118:41:50GB03@lehigh.bitnet>, by GB03@NS.CC.LEHIGH.EDU (George Philip Bluhm): I just purchased a Canon BJ10e printer. It has 360x360 dpi. There is a driver on Fred Fish 446 (or thereabouts :^)). I am still in the process of sorting out using it. I am very impressed with the output from PageStream via PixelScript and from PageSetterII. I am having a little trouble with where it (the driver?) starts printing on the page. It occasionaly skips ~2 inches at the top (bottom on PixelScript) of the page. This is a portable and can be had with a sheet feeder and carrying case for ~$400. It is fairly slow, but I suppose that is one of the trade-offs for inexpensive high quality.... There is also a big brother desktop. I don't remember the model. It will use fanfold paper (standard) and has an optional sheet feeder. This one is in the $550 range. It was a hard choice, but I think I may have some use for the portability. My dealer says Canon also has a color version of this in the works. Release date unknown. Price suspected to be ~$800 (oops, over the limit) If anyone has seen any other drivers for this series, I would appreciate hearing about it. The dealer has sold several of these printers. Jim Heath

parallel port, feeds cut sheets - not that tractor feed stuff. ty? u> minute. My A3000 prints a full page of graphics from PageStream 2.1 in about 1.5 minutes.
