Open your eyes and your mind before engaging your mouth.

The Imagen fonts require no more or less space than the Adobe fonts,
regardless of where they are stored.  If you buy an inexpensive laser
printer w/o a hard disk that only talks 9600 baud, you can expect to
spend about one minute to download a face.  If you've got ethernet
and/or a hard disk, it'll take less time.

I think Mr. Cooper is being very fair describing the Imagen product.
I you don't like Imagen, or UltraScript, or the color of the box, DON'T
BUY THE F*CKING PRINTER.  If you want to ask intelligent questions
about Imagen/UltraScript, please do so.  If you're going to get into a
pissing contest (and I'm guessing that you will based on your assinine
comment about font sizes), do it through email.  This sniping is
getting annoying.
