So what about the SLM804 (or whatever number) the Atari Laser printer that
uses the ST's DMA Bus?  I have seen it do 5 second screen dumps.  But what
does it do with something like EasyDraw or Timeworks DTP?  Do things which
use GDOS to drive the laserprinter go any faster (Atari could sell a lot
more systems if their ad went "What takes 45 minutes on brand X takes only
2 minutes on an ST".  But does anyone have experience?
