Quality...PLP II is much superior.
Price...Deskwriter

I just bought a PLP II used (to get rid of the price problem).
For _ALL_ the specifics, check out the Issue of MacUser (about 2 monthes ago)
that reviews these two and the Apple Personal LaserWriter SC.
If you can afford it, you probably want the PLP II.
If you're low on money, find one used or buy a deskwriter.

Late Note(rumor):
	the rumored "new non water soluable ink" for the deskwriter supposedly
	has been taken off the market.
