I have been using a LaserJet III (w/ an additional 2 meg card and HP
Postscript card) for the past few days.  It has replaced an Apple
Laserwriter for testing purposes.  In the few days I've had it, it has
performed perfectly with all the various Postscript I've sent it (Scribe,
dvips, xwps, etc.)  from my Sparcstation (using Transcript) and the output
is visibly better than the Laserwriter's.  It appears to be the winner
hands down -- I plan to buy more of them.
