In response to Joe Svec's interest of speeding up hardcopy SAS/GRAPH
output when using an HP LaserJet, you can either purchase PlotterInACartridge
from Pacific Data Products (~$350) or use PrintAPlot from Insight Dev.
Corp ($200).  The former is a cartridge used in much the same fashion
as the font cartridges that are available.  The latter is software.
Both produce good output very fast (since SAS/GRAPH can generate
output for a HP bed plotter quickly and both products let the LaserJEt
emulate a bed plotter).  There are many additional features available
(control "pen" width, # of copies, etc) in both.  I have listed
retail for both, although you should be able to hunt around and
obtain a better price.
