Having read the MacWorld article on Laser Printers I went with QMS. Actually,
it is now called PS JET+ and is identical to the one reviewed by MacWorld.
I negotiated a real good deal, approximately the same what the LaserWriter
Plus is (with all university discounts). Combined with SuperMac's LaserSpooler
it works great.Functionally it is identical to LaserWriter and physically
it is 80% identical to all other Canon based printers. Mine has PostScript
version 46.1 and comes with a 90 warranty. A strongly recommend it.

(I suspect I got a good deal because I drew the attetion of the salesman to
the MacWorld article, and then insisted on a Finder's fee (pun intended))
