So far it is the fastest Postscript print engine I've seen yet. The only problem we had is DEC's silly maintenance policy which we hope to resolve soon. The allowable number of pages per month seemed a bit on the low side. The ability to find Postscript printers around 20 pages a minute while actually interpretting normal postscript text (like TEX or TROFF output) is pretty limitted. -Ron
