  Working with a couple different vendors and will ultimately make a
purchase decision on some equipment (laser platesetter) that hooks-up
via the parallel port.  In talking to these people, I've received about
5 Kbillion different answers when I ask about how fast we can spit data
at this device with an IBM or compatible machine.
  Anyone out there got the REAL answer??  Thanks for your help and
the info in advance...
