Electek in Chicago has it still for $995, incl toner, dust cover. In moving up from an original Proprinter, I'm greatly impressed with things I can do with Wordperfect. It is slow when doing graphics, and even some text (a "print screen" is not as instantaneous as was on the Proprinter). I suggest you download PC Mag's improved Laserlst.com (to fit two full pages sideways in lineprinter font) and keep the Proprinter (you've got to use up all that tractor-feed paper you stockpiled when there was a sale, don't you?) and swap LPT1 and LPT2 with a port swap program, to switch back and forth with your printers... ---------------------------------------- | STANDARD DISCLAIMER: | | "... on the other hand, some very | UUCP: akcs.amparsonjr@vpnet.uucp | knowledgable people may justifiably | | disagree with my comments, in whole | C-serve: 73336,1667 | or in part ...
