Both Lexmark Optra E+ and Lexmark Optra 310 (about $358 and $401 respectively, 
in the USA) has Postscript level 2 emulation. The 310 has this emulator as a 
standard add on while for the E+ it is an option.
The E+ is advertised here by www.plonter.com for about $420 (including VAT ?) 
with built in Hebrew, but probably without the Postscript option. They said 
they will check for the add-on price but had not returned me yet.

What are the differences between a real Postscript and an emulated one ? 
Does someone has good / bad experience with any Lexmark printer ? I heard 
someone who says that Lexmark printers are not good in general, although he is 
surly not objective as he is a sales person for one of the competitors.
