We need several printers primarily for graphics use, and are
centering in on 24-pin models. Magazine reviews give good marks
to the Epson LQ-1050 and the Panasonic KX-1124, and they are roughly
in the same price range (a few bucks more for the Panasonic).

Does anyone have experience with either of these, and, in general,
are Panasonic printers are reliable for long-term use as are Epsons.
(We have had some Epsons in use for 5-6 years with only the plastic
pin-feed cage breaking.) These printers will be in a student
laboratory, so they need to be sturdy and reliable.

Thanks, in advance, for your opinions.
