Hi to all...

Our Lab is getting ready to buy 4 new laser printers to replace our
old Apple Laserwriter Plus collection.  We've heard nice things about
the HP LaserJet IIIsi (with extra RAM, and the PS chips), but we're
unsure if it would be appropriate.

We have a network of Suns and Macs, and we want the printers to be
able to serve all of the above -- our Laserwriter Plus collection
works for this, but they're *SLOW*.  Anyway, we want RELIABILITY,
Postscript, and decent speed (we'd probably not buy 4 printers of the
LJIII-si speed, rather only 1 and 3 somewhat slower printers -- like
perhaps regular LJ III printers).

Does anyone out there have any comments? I'd appreciate any responses
(by e-mail, please, I don't get over here very often!  If there is
sufficient interest, I'll post a summary to the net).

Thanks in advance!
