From the June 20, 1988 'Seybold Report on Publishing Systems', p32
 
Kodak adds Imagen's UltraScript to 1392 - fastest PostScript
printer yet.

...Kodak has licensed the UltraScript PostScript interpreter from
Imagen... The PostScript version of the 1392, dubbed the Model 24
replaces the RIP of the existing models 14 and 14E.  The new RIP
upgrades the hardware to a 68020 processor and 18 MB or RAM... 
The new RIP reportedly drives the engine at near its rated speed
of 92 pages per minute, even in PostScript.

As we've reported before, the 1392 is not only fast, is also 
provides the duplex and finishing (slip-sheeting, collating,
and stapling) capabilities that separate on-demand primters
from most ofiice printers.  Its duty cycle is a recommended
1,000,000 images a month.

...Sechduled to be made available in the third quarter of this year, 
the Model 24 will start at $190,000, the same price as the current
model.
