I am considering buying a Panasonic 2123 printer.  I will use it
mainly to print dvi file from Latex.  I would appreciate any
information including:

1.  How much time does it take to print a page of dvi file (mail text)
using a 486 PC and ghostscript under linux?

2.  Can it handle plain paper like those used in copiers?  If so what
is the capacity?  

3.  Is the printout for dvi files readable?  I read the advertisement
and it can do 360x360 dpi.  Is this enough to print out those small
fonts used in subscripts of a mathematic equation? 

I greatly appreciate any information on this printer, or any
inexpensive alternatives.  Thanks.
