We have just finished working with the QMS PS2200B printer.  This little 
monster is 2 bin (both 11x17) and fast (>20ppm) over localtalk.  We had
it in for evaluation on our student Mac+ lab and it printed 6692 pages in
just a shade over 50 hours of use.  It replaced 2 LW IInt's and kept up.

We tested the 11x17 ability outside of the lab and found it to be just great.
