Hosek) Distribution: usa Organization: Pitzer College, Claremont, CA 91711 Lines: 15 I haven't personally used any of the laser printers mentioned in the posting that this follows up, but one important caveat to anyone looking at "HP compatible" laser printers: choose your software first and make sure that its HP output can print on the printer. Many printers that claim to be HP compatible in fact are not. (One exhaustive test of HP-compatible printers found only one printer claiming HPLJ+ compatibility that passed the test: the HP LJII!) -dh -- "Odi et amo, quare id faciam, fortasse requiris? nescio, sed fieri sentio et excrucior" -Catullus D.A.
