I wish to purchase a printer for my 3B2 computer. I
want to do mathematical word processing using
documenter's workbench (NTroff, eqn, etc.). I would
like to know what printers people have been using.
Ideally, the printer should cost <$500. For example,
has anyone had any success with the Epson FX85?
How about the TI 855? 

Has anyone ported TEX to 3B2's? What printers are
supported? 

Thanks!
