Which printer?

Computing Ctr. Lines: 22 Xref: gatech net.micro.att:1191 net.unix:7642 I wish to purchase a printer for my 3B2 computer. I want to do mathematical word processing using documenter's workbench (NTroff, eqn, etc.). I would like to know what printers people have been using. Ideally, the printer should cost <$500. For example, has anyone had any success with the Epson FX85? How about the TI 855? Has anyone ported TEX to 3B2's? What printers are supported?
