I saw a PaintJet connected to a Mac II at the Spring COMDEX in Chicago, and
I have the printout it produced on my bulletin board.  It prints in 256 colors,
and appears to have full 300-dpi resolution.  The quality of the print is not
spectacular, but it _is_ quite respectable, and IMHO worth the price quoted,
especially when you consider that those prices are list.

BTW, the demo picture the guy printed came from Aldus PageMaker 2.0.
