Well, it depends on a few choices: 1. Do you want colour or "black and white"? 2. Do you want an inkjet or laser printer? 3. Price? 4. Desktop space. ;-) My recommendation? EPSON Stylus COLOR 800! :-) Why? Because I have an EPSON Stylus COLOR 500 here and I *absolutely* love it! It is fantastic! Its b&w and colour print quality is awesome! It works great under Debian GNU/Linux with Ghostscript 5.10 (gs-aladdin), i.e. you probably don't need EPSON's PS level 2 option. (I have no idea what if the option is hardware or software based.) I want colours and I love colours, and EPSON Stylus COLOR 800 creates superb text and photo printouts. Ghostscript 5.10 even supports 1440x720 dpi mode! :-) You can't go wrong with EPSON Stylus COLOR 500. :-) But then, if you prefer a laser printer instead, go with HP LJ 4L or other fine printers. :-) Cheers, Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling Civil and Environmental Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Alberta, Canada [EMAIL PROTECTED] Keep smiling! *^_^* Come visit Our Lady of Victory Camp -- http://olvc.home.ml.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
