Hello. I am teaching a journalism class within our home school network. I use PageMaker on my iMac. I print on a Canon S800, which is a wonderful ink jet printer, but, because it is ink jet, can't be adjusted for 85 line screen.
For the first three months, the web press company converted our photos and clip art, but we're paying between $30-80 per month for this service. Last month, I saved my photos and clip art to CD and took it to Kinko's. For $10, I printed my halftones there, brought them home for paste-up into the ink-jet-printed pages, and then took it to the printers. Now it's time to print again, and the Mac at Kinko's has been unplugged for a week, waiting for someone to come and repair it. I would take it to a friend if I had one that had a Mac and a laser printer! I am shopping for a laser printer. The HP LaserJet 1200se seems to be the cheapest printer. I am having a hard time finding information on laser printers, though. The comparisons I find on the internet put laser printers side by side with ink jet printers. Most salesmen as well as Kinko's employees don't know what I'm talking about when I say I have to have 85 line screen. What I would really like to find is a laser printer that would handle 11x17 paper, but that feature alone almost triples the price of a laser printer, which is completely out of our league. Does anyone out there have a recommendation? Missing yet another print deadline, Claire -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
