Regarding the IW II:  The biggest problem *I* have with the Image Writer II is
the *&^&** driver that causes the IW to shuffle back a tad at the start of a
print job.  I presume the reason is to tighten the paper in the feeder.  
Regardless of the reason for it, I've found that little shuffle-dance to be 
the cause of more trashed printouts than any other.  Will Apple ever re-write
the driver so it doesn't cause the paper to shuffle back?  I hope so.

Anyone else have this experience with the IW II?
