Wowzers! The Deskwriter is the answer to my prayers. However, it can
be slow on some Pagemaker output (up to 7 min/page on a 1MB SE)
I realize that more memory would help, but wouldn't a spooler be cheaper?
If anyone knows of a spooler that works with it, please mail me at

	scott@spectra.com

or

	...!nosc!spectra!scott

If anyone else is interested, also drop me a line and I'll mail you
my answers if possible.

If you have a DW, PLS read the postings about paper to use with it.
Makes a lot of difference in the sharpness of the output.

BTW, have I been a chump? I paid $900 for the printer, $309 for the
font package. The poster from Notre Dame said he paid $729.
School discount or have I been had?

Apologies if mail to me bounces; our company is moving and computers
may be unstable. If you think people would be interested, post to
comp.sys.mac; I read it when the boss isn't looking.

Thanks!
