I have owned a NECP2200 for about a year now. Print quality is great, construction seems a little flimsy but I have had no problems so far. It's compatable with the NEC P6 as well as the Epson LQ series. I think it edges out the Epson LQ500 ever so slightly in terms of price/performance. You will see it advertised as having 360x360 DPI resolution. Please keep in mind that it accomplishes this by doing two passes, which causes graphic dumps to look muddy. The 360x180 mode is much better. If you are looking for a _good deal_, there were several supply houses here in the US that were selling the old Epson LQ800 for around $300. This is a damn good printer for the money. Please keep in mind that the LQ800 came without a pinfeeder, so order with your printer. Oh course, what do I know, since I own an Amiga.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hal Meeks "I'm living in a condo, netoprhm@ncsuvm.bitnet with Henry Thoreau" hgm@ncsuvx.ncsu.edu --Reagan Years, Part II
