I am thinking about buying an HP Deksjet printer.  I know there was a recent
discussion about the Deskjet here, but I missed most of it.  I do remember
reading that the recommended interface was the Grappler LQ.  Could someone
who has been following this discussion please EMAIL me the following info:

   What is the general consensus about this printer?  How is the quality of
   graphics and fonts other than the ones that come with the Grappler?

   How about speed?  December MacWorld reviewed the Grappler LQ and complained
   about speed a lot.  Their tests were with a LaserJet though...

   This month's MacWorld has an ad by Orange Micro talking about the Deskjet
   with the Grappler LS.  What's the difference between the LS and the LQ
   (besides about $10)?  Which one do I want to get?

I guess that's all I need to know.  Again, I know that this has been discussed
recently so please email this info to me rather than clog the net.  

Thanks.
