NEC Information Systems just announced a series of printers using
Light Emitting Diode technology.  The three announced products
are a Spinwriter substitute, a Laserjet Plus clone and a PostScript
printer.
Retail prices range from $2,195 to $4,795.  All have separate toner
and photconductor cartridges, 250 sheet in and out bins and projected
life of 600,000 pages.  The catch: they will only be selling to OEMs.

The LC-890 (the one that speaks PostScript and I am interested in)
has 35 resident fonts, 3MB of 'internal memory' (whatever that includes)
and Appletalk, Centronics, PR-232 and RS-422 interfaces.  It will be
available June 1, 1987.
