Hi TC -

Thanks for the "heads up!" Will wait.

Cheers, George

I have the HP 1012 and it works great. It is often on sale at Office Max
for $150 after rebates.

If this is for a business with high-volume printing, you may want to
look at one of the more expensive laserwriters. A Mac friend told me
that the 1012 doesn't have a replaceable drum. Doesn't matter to me, as
ours is for home use and I will certainly get my money's worth.

Whatever you get, you'll probably want it to have ethernet so that you
don't need a separate print server. And you'll want Appletalk support,
especially if you have OS9 Macs on your network.

Hi Walt -

We're now planning to get a printer that provides connection via
ethernet. We don't have to deal with network problems; however, Pat and
I do grind out quite a bit of paper - - most of it on very short notice
- - for our various committee and foundation. assignments. Also, I
need the capability to print out somewhat voluminous documents, such as
IRS Forms 990 for Nonprofit entities. So, I guess we'll have to go with
a business-level printer.

Our serial 4/600 has seen better days, and using it has been akin to
watching the grass grow < grin >.

George
