The NEC Silentwriter Model 95 sounds like the answer to your question.  It
comes standard with AppleTalk, Serial, and parallel ports.  It does auto-
detection too.  The printer comes with 2Mb standard (expandable to 5), 
Postscript Level Two, and HP L-Jet III.  The engine is 6 pages per minute,
and the print density is 300 DPI.  I've had mine for about 2 months and 
absolutely love it.  Check _Computer Shopper_, I think it can be had for
about $1350 now.
