I have a Deskjet and Mega-2, for text output the speed is as reported
about 2 to 4 pages per minute, quality is great. Using Logistix spreadsheet
(laserjet driver) a graph took about 15 minutes and was distorted
but i have no idea whether this has the deskjet fault or Logistix fault.
I use the Deskjet at work frequently with PC and pc graphics programs
and use laserjet as the driver and so far everything has worked fine.

I just order Supercharged Easy-Draw from Migraph, and a Deskjet specific
driver (they have laserjet drivers too). Since this is a GDOS driver it
should work with other GDOS program (ie timeworks PP, wordup).
The Migraph salesman said a single copy of a one page graphic often
is faster with the Deskjet/ DJ driver than Laserjet/ Laserjet driver.
I'll post to net how the new driver works when it comes in.

By the way it's true a Mac SE and laserwriter with any of the
publishing/drawing programs takes about 30 (sometime 1 hour) minutes
per page. The main time consuming factor is down loading fonts over
appletalk.  Apple has 'solved' this problem with a new laser printer
that keeps all the fonts you could want on a hard disc in the printer.
If you have about $30,000 (??) you can buy one of these yourself.

I have a question for Dave Neff (or others):
After buying my DeskJet I received a publication from HP claiming not only
deskjet drivers for the ST but also PaintJet drivers. Dave are these
GDOS drivers or something else.  Does anyone have a PaintJet printer
in use with an ST?  The PaintJet 150*150 resolution with color output
could also be a really hot combo with the ST.
Any comment?
