In putting together a new lab, I'm looking for some better printing solutions. We're currently using ImageWriters, which suck; they need too much maintenance. The powers that be don't want to use LaserWriters cuz of the costly toner cartridges. So. Does anybody know of any hi-volume dot-matrix or other types of printers that can be either AppleTalk'ed or Ethernet'ed into a Mac lab? Such a printer a) would use fanfold paper, and b) would not necessarily have to print Mac graphics, just draft ascii text files. I'm currently looking at an Epson DFX-5000, a hi-vol parallel port'ed dot matrix, but I sure can't figure out how I'd turn it into an AppleTalk based printer... >>> Internet: yahnke@macc.wisc.edu <<< >>> Mille voix chuchottent <<c'est vrai>> <<<
