	This might have been beaten do death, but which is the best buy of
	hand held scanners for a 386 machine? I prefer one with price tag less
	than $200.

	Also, is there a combination of software and a DOT MATRIX printer
	which can let me print files in postcript format? Or better yet,
	is there a dot matrix printer that can do this trick itself?
	I have access to a postcript printer. But it would be great if I can
	preview files at home before I upload them to the machine connecting
	to the postcript printer. What I have in mind is the Panasonic 1124
	24-pin printer with a smart software. But are there better ways to
	do this?

	Thanks in advance.
