|Full ImagewriterII support implies things like super/subscripts and
|print quality mode (I don't believe that the IW1 had a NLQ mode).

Not very valid reasoning.  I'm pretty sure I could do super/subscripts with mt
SuperWriter 924/NLQ-180 (<- name of the printer) combo and do NLQ.

Super/subscripts are available on almost every dot-matrix, I've seen so far
and you can do NLQ prints, if your printer supports it.  Maybe there needs to
be a more specific driver for the IW II, but the IW I emulation gives you
with a semi-decent NLQ printer pretty much everything the IW II does, minus
colors (if your printer doesn't support it) and varitition in print speed, but
having saved $300 in the process it is a small loss, IMHO.
