I'd have to second that.  Not only is the price very good for the NeXT LW
but at 400 dpi and pretty good speed it's also superior in quality to 
virtually anything else you'd look at.  Maybe high DPI is not important to
you now, but what about down the line?  Is it worth it to save a few $ now
when maybe in a couple of years you own something which is inadequate for
your needs?  

the one disadvantage to the NeXT printer, obviously, is that it's a "dumb"
printer which has to be used off a NeXT,  but since you already have the 
NeXT. . . . .
