     I have a NeXT station and need to buy a laser printer for it.  I 
spent all of last year saving wordperfect files on IBM disks, luggint 
lugging them to school and printing them out on IBM's connected to HP 
Laserjet IIIs.  All in all, a pretty crappy way to get anything done, 
especially if you want to print out something froma program that isn't 
available on IBM.
     So, my question is, shoul I pony up the dough for a NeXT printer or 
can I hook up another (read: cheaper) laser printer to my NeXT.  In case 
you are wondering, I do realize that the NeXT printer would be the easy, 
flawless solution, but I am wondering what the downside is of going third 
party.  I am stand alone, and don't do huge volumes of work, and few 
graphics, so high PPM and 400dpi aren't a big concern for me.  
Suggestions?
