	We are looking into purchasing a new laser printer for
our IRIS 4D/85GT.  We currently have an HP LaserJet hanging off
one of our serial ports and would like to replace it with a new
laser printer (also on the serial port if possible).  We were
wondering if there are any recommended/supported color and non-color
postscript laser printers we should look into.  We want to avoid 
paying a lot of money for a laser printer which we cannot take 
full advantage of it's features or is not compatible with the 
machine.  

	I have read the man page on mkcentpr and seen the list of
color laser printers supported on the Centronix Parallel port.  
However, I don't believe the 4D/85GT came with this parallel
port and I would like to avoid purchasing this board if possible.

Thank you very much in advance.
