Hi, Still trying to decide how to connect a color printer without having to go over serial lines. The ethernet connection is a possibility, but fairly pricey. Has anyone seen/heard/used a SCSI-to-centronics box? If so, how do they work? There is still an outside chance of getting a NeXT color printer - I should have a sample printout today. People have commented on the poor output or performance of the Tek printers, but this doesn't match up with my experience. Perhaps the NeXT printer is better for some things, but in image processing thermal wax gives that cartoonish - neon look. If I can find a cheap enough way to hook it up, we may even go with the Phase IISD dye sublimation printer. Thanks to all those who responded both here and via email. Eric S.
