Yes, the Amiga can talk to any printer, including a postscript printer.
It can use either the serial or parallel (Centronics) port and all
software will talk to any printer.

My best recommendation to you is to call Commodore in Pennsylvania
at 1-800-627-9595 and give them your zipcode. They will tell you
the nearest Amiga dealers to you and you can go check out an Amiga
yourself. Be aware that there are also gobs (100's of meg) of PD software
available also, all from a few convenient sources (anon-FTP and Fred Fish
leap to mind).  

I called Commodore to find Amiga dealers near me. About three weeks later,
I got a call at work one from the stores whose name I was given asking
me if they could help me. I got a postcard from the other store. While
this is great customer service, I'm aware that unscrupulous businesses
might not be as unobtrusive as these contacts were.
