I _love_ my NEC P2200 (a 24-pin matrix printer with a variety of 
built in fonts).  List price for these is $495, street price as
low as $350.  It will do normal Epson-style graphics (but the
print is lighter) in addition to high resolution 25-pin graphics.
It has parallel and serial interfaces, will move tractor feed
paper in either push or pull mode, and can feed single sheets
without removing the tractor feed paper.  I made my father buy
one for his law office too.  He has almost retired his Diable 630
as a result.
