To my knowlege, the Apple Laserwriter Plus, images the ENTIRE page into
memory, before dumping it to the drum through the laser.  QMS does the
same, Apple Laserwriter does the same, the NTX I think does the same, infact
I know of no 300 dpi lasers that do not build a complete bitmap first.  The
banding is apparantly related to those printers that either use a dot-matrix
mechanical print method, or write directly to film with the laser.
