Hi folks,

  I have been reading this newsgroup for some time and I know this has
been discussed before, however, at that time I had no vested interest.
I am a poor grad student in need of printing out color postscript. All
of this has come up with my new assignment to print out color contour
maps of the global temperature field. Without checking to see what 
kind of hardware I had available, I plunged ahead developing software
that outputs postscript. Now I find I have nowhere to print out my 
pictures. My only hope is that somewhere there is a "reasonably" priced
postscript printer and I will be able to (somehow) convince my department
to purchase one. So, .....   Has anyone had any experience with using
color postscript printers? Just how expensive are they? Are there any
I should avoid? Are there any I should definitely consider?
E-mail is appreciated or post to the net. If I get a number of replies,
I will gladly summarize to the net and, of course, will honor any
"me too" requests I receive.

  Kindest regards,

  James Hardin
