Okay, folks.  I'm convinced.  The DeskWriter is awesome.  I went and checked one out
today.  I cooked up the nastiest Word 4.0 document I could dream up in font sizes
from 7 to 72 point in all available styles, and a table with borders.  It printed
in under 2 mins, most of which time was spent processing the page before sending it
to the printer.  I set the document in Palatino, and it was printed in Palacio: HP's
clone.  Palacio is heavier than Palatino, but it's okay, and 7.0 will be out even-
tually...  I also tried some Bezier curves from Draw II (beautiful).  I had a nasty
SuperPaint 2.0 document ready too, but the dealer didn't have the software.  He did
print a really nice PageMaker doc with imbedded graphics, though.  Looked good.

******QUESTION*****

So, here's the question:  Both times I've seen this engine demoed, (once on the Desk-
Jet and once on the DeskWriter) I've noticed that one of the "scan" lines from the
print head wasn't printing.  This results in REALLY thin white lines on large black
fields, and in poor text rendition if it coincides with the top or bottom of any of
the characters...  Is this a common problem?  If so, can it be easily corrected by
somehow cleaning the head, or is a replacement necessary?

Also, is it possible to use a spooler with this printer (has this been answered).
SuperLaserSpool would seem ideal (especially since I can upgrade from SuperSpool
cheap ;-))

Thanks in advance!
