Sorry, the Paintjet is 180dpi, the Xerox is 120.  Even though the paintjet
and deskjet are very similar, they (hp) probably had problems getting the
colors to register correctly at 300dpi.

If you really need 300dpi, there is the tektronix 4693dx printer.  Does
300 dpi, auto-dithering, and can be upgraded to postscript.

BASE PRICE? : 7000
