Hello,

	I know of only one inexpensive Laser Printer running on a VAX.
This is an IMAGEN IMPRESS-10 and is a Canon based intellegent laser
printer.  A frind of mine who works at the MIT Joint Computer Facility
has the thing turning hand-springs and printing all kinds of useful
stuff.  Including rasterized vector graphics and the like.  It has
software fonts and isScribe compatable (he has done all the font file
hacking necessary to make this trivial).  The MIT-JCF community has
been using the thing for about 3 months now and it is quickly
replacing their numerous Diablo Qumes.  It costs about $20k or so.
You can get more info by contacting him, he is EB.MIKE@MIT-OZ.


					Happy hunting,
					Tony...
