Sorry for this double posting, I had a conflict with the machine ...

OCE (a dutch company dealing in office automation, document management) has
shown us a 508 x 508 dpi laser printer, the OCE 6750.  It is an implementation
of the Office Document Architecture (ODA).
The machine can be used with TeX (DVI) from VMS, Interleave from a SUN, and
it accepts the "listing" file format from /370 computers.

Can anyone remark on the ODA protocol, are there any conversion tools
for "other" protocols to ODA, is there micro computer (PC, PS/2) software
that will generate ODA files?

TeX output looks wonderful on 508 dpi, estimated cost (or so they say):
engine proper approx. $50,000
price per page (all in at 50,000 pages per month) $ 0.04

PS. I'm asking for information, I'm not pushing this machine!
