Actually, the new line of DEC printers recently released, which include the LN05 and LN06, come with 43 fonts, including the LaserWriter 35 (sounds like a dissident group in prison, eg, "free the LaserWriter 35!"). The LN05 is a simplex 8 ppm printer, the '06 a duplex 8 ppm. At Seybold the LN07 was announced, which is a 4 ppm simplex printer which also has the same 43 fonts as the other printers.
