  We just got here in our department a new TI2115 laser printer.
We had ordered the printer last December and arrived with over 4 months
delay. The reason was that Texas Instruments, because of initial bad 
print quality, had placed an engineering hold on all TI2115's 
since mid February.  Finally they started shipping out the printers 
April 20th after they found out what was wrong with the printer. And did
they !
  The printer now performs very well! We are very pleased with the print
quality. The modifications they did were : some gears and lens were changed 
in the laser engine, and they thickened the dot of the laser beam.
  We have tested most of the emulation modes and they work very 
well. New manuals (good ones) also accompany the printer. Graphics are 
excellent, and blacks are very blacks. Character quality is good.  
Speed is very good (15ppm) but no way to get the top rated
speed if you print graphics or you use the printer as a plotter (HPGL).
  We haven't tested extensively Postscript yet but we will do it soon.
