I'm considering one of the Imagewriter I clones available for about
$150-200 less than the Imagewriter II.  One of them is by Fortis and
the other is by Seikosha (sp?).  They claim to be fully compatible across
all Mac software and at least as fast as the IW-I but not as fast as
the IW-II.  The speed is not too critical since I will use this printer
for short drafts when I am working at home, but I want to know if there
are any other drawbacks such as lack of compatibility with some software
(esp. WORD) print interfaces, e.g., less than full PRINT dialog boxes.

Has anyone had any experience with either the Fortis or Seikosha?

You can post or reply by mail and I'll summarize.

Thanks.
