Given the price differential between 24-pin printers or inkjet
printers and low-end lasers, the fact that one can buy a 4ppm PCL
laser printer for $600 or so starts to make a lot of sense given
that for TeX-based output, impacts and inkjets have their speed
measured in minutes per page rather than pages per minute. Not to
mention the fact that a laser printer won't keep the neighbors up
if you're printing late at night.
