I have a question about Atari GDOS support for Laser Printers...

Does  GDOS support any laser printers other than the  Atari  laser 
printer?

I  ask  because  I'm developing a user's guide  for  a    software 
product with MicroSoft WRITE (on a 520 ST).

##################################################################
By the way,  MicroSoft WRITE on the Atari ST is pure garbage.   It 
is  so  full of bugs that it should never have left  the  door  at 
MicroSoft.   Also,  Atari should never have let the product out of 
its doors.
##################################################################

At any rate,  I have the user's guide in a fairly complete  state, 
and  it would be prohibitively tedious to move it over to  another 
WP at this point...

So,  once the user's guide is finished,  I'm planning on renting a 
laser printer and printing the manual.   At present it seems  that 
my only option is to rent an EPSON-compatible laser printer.   The 
prospect  of spending > $100 to have a laser printer emulate a  9-
pin dot matrix printer doesn't excite me!

So  the bottom line:   is there GDOS support for  non-Atari  laser 
printers (e.g.  HP LaserJet II)?  If so, will it work on a 520 ST?  
Where is it available?

If I decide to bite the bullet and buy another WP  program,  which 
should I get?   I need "real" fonts,  laser printer  support,  the 
ability  to work with a 100 page document (without running out  of 
memory), etc.

Thanks in advance,
