Hi,

I'm interested in the StyleWriter, but am concerned about the speed.  Everyone
has been posting that it is SLOW.  How does this compare to the ImageWriter II?

Second question:  I have recently upgraded to the TrueType INIT and new printer
drivers on my SE/ImageWriter with system 6.0.7.  The result is that printing in
"Faster" mode is now MUCH slower, printing in "Best" hangs (or exceeds my
patience
capacity).  My question is this - Is the StyleWriter inherently slow, or is the
speed the result of the new printer drivers?  Or is my problem unique?  Have
any
others out there tried this configuration?

Chip
