Couple of questions about the Deskjet+

Will the speed increase be noticeable with the Macintosh since the Mac
prints through the serial port?

Can anyone recommend a specific brand of paper which works well with the
DeskJet?  I tried and like a sample of Hammermill LaserPrint 24, but I
haven't seen it in stores around here (course I have haven't looked too
hard, but ...)

Is there any possibility of the DeskJet ever printing in color?  It seems
that new drivers for various computers would be needed for it to print
one color, pause, prompt for the user to put in a different color cartridge,
and print the next color, but that doesn't seem out of the question as far
as difficulty goes (for me anyway, not knowing better).


Thanks a lot!
