Hey, LaserJets are far superior to dealing with acres of paper with an
occasional black mark here and there.  I put 310 lines of output (in a
two-column format, with a small font) per 8.5x11 page with an LJ.  I can
spread out a 1000-line program on my desk, with all of it visible.  Try
doing that with those old 11x14 bedsheets.
