Here's what we need: (1) o High speed (600 LPM or better) o Medium to low print quality (band printers I guess) o It need only be 80 column (i.e. 8.5 x 11 paper) o Cheap I like the DataProducts 600 LPM printer, but it costs $$$. I've seen some specs for a high speed CIE dot matrix printer. Anyone seen this? (2) o Low speed o Medium resolution o Suitable (barely) for troff(1), graph(1) or Leroy (graphics package) o Cheap It doesn't have to be a laser (e.g. HP LaserJet). High resolution dot matrix will do. Something nice but not 'first quality'. Comments about the HP laser printer welcome. Information on troff filters or hooks needed to interface to standard troff are welcome as well. As always, Thanks in Advance. -- David Hinnant SCI Systems, Inc. {decvax, akgua}!mcnc!rti-sel!scirtp!dfh Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
