I have a chance to get a DeskWriter at a good price, but there are some things
I want to know: 

What programs have problems printing on the DeskWriter? Some specific programs
I use are Word, Excel, SuperPaint, PowerPoint, THINK compilers, Allegro CL.

Is it worth getting the extra fonts or will products like Adobe's Type
Manager and outline fonts in System 7.0 work with the DeskWriter and
give me the same quality output.

About how many pages can I expect from an ink cartridge and how much do
new cartridges cost (and where can I get them)

How does its speed compare to a LaserWriter?

Can I put it on an AppleTalk Network?

Any other problems (or good experiences) people are having with the DeskWriter.

Please respond via email if you can
