The local elementary school has been loooking for cheap printers to hook
to the cheap 512KEs they bought.  I suggested that they buy a Seikosha
to try out.  It's a slow Imagewriter I clone.  The school tells me it takes
twice as long for the Seikosha to print a page - I think they said 5
minutes (I don't know what they were printing).

Also I saw someone printing something on it that ran off the end of the
page -- perhaps the vertical spacing isn't right either??  I'll try to
check next week.

Does anyone know how to make the Imagewriter driver print
bidirectionally in "faster" mode?
