Is this the same exhaustive test that PC Magazine did where they 
said ...
"the NCR 6435 wore the true colors of HP on every test were the 
slightest hint of inexact HP emulation would be detected." ? 
Or, is this a different exhaustive test?  I agree that the NCR 6435
does differ from a REAL HP in several ways ... the 6435 has better
print quality and a lower cost of operation.  (TEC based engine)
