AGFA was showing their 400dpi printer at the Seybold meeting a week ago.
They only had a few different sample pages printing, and they seemed much
more jaggey than you'd expect from 400 dots/inch.  Although the blacks
were very black (like on the Xerox 2700), the type just didn't look as
good as on a Canon CX engine.  I asked the fellow in the booth whether
the machine was tuned up properly, and he said "yes".  After waiting all
this time for a higer-than-300-resolution printer, it was quite disappointing.
Perhaps some of the real experts out in net-land would care to comment on the
output quality of the AGFA?
