Re: printer advice
I am using an HP laser jet III that I got from a used computer store
for $225. It was a reconditioned unit. Works great with ghostscript
and magicfilter. For about $100 more I could have got the IIID
version which prints on both sides of the paper (too bad, I wish I got
a IIID before the last batch disapeared). The toner for the HP ljII,
IID, III, and IIID (same one for all) is cheap ($40 for a repack,
$60-80 for a new one) and they last for about 3-4 k pages). These
printers run about 8 ppm and are real work horses.

The HP LaserJet 4M+ is a good printer with a lot of features. With
magicfilter installed, it works like a charm. It's an older model, but
you
might be able to find someone who sell them. (Corporate Raider and A
Matter
of Fax are two companies that sell them; they advertise in _Computer
Shopper_. I bought mine "as new" from Corporate Raider a few years ago
for
around $600.)
