Is anyone out there willing to comment their use of the Apple
Laserwriter with Transcript?  (Transcript is the troff-to-Postscript
software sold by Adobe).  We are looking at getting a second laser
printer, because our Imagen 8/300 is maxed out, and the
Laserwriter/Transcript combo costs about 1/2 of a similarly equipped
8/300.

One particular need I am struggling with on our 8/300 is complex
graphics output (~100k vectors/page) from programs making CalComp
plotter calls (almost have that one licked) and emitting Tektronix 4014
hi-res plot codes.  Has anyone done something like this for the
Laserwriter?
