I am looking to print troff(1) output on a the Xerox 2700 laser printer.
The two software packages I have found are Textware's Tplus and
VLS's DX-2700.  Textware wants $2500 for a 780 binary that runs with
ditroff;  VLS wants $3500 for a similar binary.  What experience do
people have with these products and companies?  Are there other
packages for the 2700 that I should be looking at?

Please mail(1) to me - if you can - and I will summarize to laser-
lovers.

For reference:
	Textware International, Cambridge, MA, (617)UNI-TEXT
	VLS, Inc, Fremont, CA, (415)490-3555
