I know this has been discussed before...

I need a printer for my 1040ST.  I have a very limited idea of what's available.
My criterion:

	1) ~300 frogskins.  Cost is a big concern.
	2) Near letter quality.  Good enough to turn in a paper at school.
	3) No characters "lost" after 3 or 4 pages are printed.  (Buffer size?)
	4) Speed really isn't a big deal.
	5) It should be durable.
	6) I don't need multiple colors.
	7) It would be nice to be able to print simple bar graphs.
	8) Pull tractors drive me nuts!  Nobody starts printing in the middle
	   of a page and wasting a sheet between each printing makes me mad.
	   Push tractor feed or friction feed is a must!  Single sheet feeders
	   probably blow the 300 frogskin budget.
	9) I don't want daisy wheel.  Should I go 9-pin 24-pin?
	10) Noise isn't a big deal - I can run it in my closet.
	11) Warranty?
	12) Go the mail order route?

Any help would be appreciated.  If you have any other criterion I should be
considering let me know.  Since printer selection is a well beaten path,
response via mail seems most appropriate.  Thanks.
