I am looking for vendors who provide sheet feeders for Apple LaserWriters.  I
need it to handle the following:

Multiple sizes/types of paper (i.e. envelopes, letter head, plain paper, trans-
parencies) at the same time. 

Must have at least 4 bins that handle at least 250 sheets, 25 envelopes, each.
Over 500 sheets and more than 50 envelopes per bin would be preferable.

Must have similar physical connection to the printer as the standard paper
trays.  What I mean is that the feeder must have a guide that plugs into the
printer's paper tray slot and press one of the 3 paper size switches to let the
printer know a bin is connected.

Must have default bin if it does not receive any indication of which bin to use.I have evaluated bins that REQUIRE special software to be on every machine that
uses that printer.  This is NOT acceptable.  The software must be optional.

I have used BIG BIN's and like the way they work.  If there is something like a
BIG BIN that has at least 4 bins, I would like to see it.
