I just ordered one from the company for $1399 + $25 for the SCSI cable
(which is not normally included).  Since delivery will take 60-90 days
(they are really back-ordered) I have time to change my mind. :-)  My
question is: does anyone have anything real good or real bad to say about
this printer?  I will summerize comments to the network.

My knowledge so far:
1) speed: 4 pages/minute.  Seems decent.
2) will not halt the mac when turned off (which it might, as its a SCSI
  device).
3) Comes with a bunch of "built in" fonts, all the standard ones I am told
  by the sales-lady, but I don't know exactely what standard ones.
4) Will print 2000-2500 pages per $33 cartridge.
5) cost: $1399 with free ground shipping, $8 or so for overnight.
6) warenty: one year, 1 month MBG.
7) Prints up to the margins of the page.
