     I am looking for the cheapest product that will let me print
post-script files. I work on DEC equipment, so I need a printer that
will interface to a VAX/VMS or an Ultrix system. I don't print very
much, so high volume printing is not a requirement. I don't need
laser-quality, although the quality has to be good; I most often print
technical papers with figures.  I have assembled ghost-script on my
machines, so if that is a part of the solution, that's ok too (as long
as it can be used to print out multi-page postscript files without too
much pain). So, what are my choices? What should I buy? I'm limited to
about $1000.00, but would like to spend as little as possible...
