Or just get any PostScript laser printer, period. I got sick of inkjets
and got given an Apple Personal LaserWriter NTR by a friend a while ago.
A bit of money at my local Apple repair shop for some new rollers from an
HP LJ IIp and I'm off to the races. Has parallel (for the PC) and
LocalTalk (for the Newton) interfaces. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
