Postscript and Inkjet were not a likely choice in my mind. I have an HP1600c and for $500 US I could add Postscript 2. The world is going to Postscript 3 but that is a different problem. I was looking at PC Connection's catalog and found a couple. There are specific model's of LexMark Optra's and Xerox inkjet printers that have Postscript 2 built into them. None of the BJC, Epson, or HP inkjet's are listed with PostScript. The HP's are usually rated as having the most vibrant colors with a drop in resolution when you compare them to an Epson. When you get to doing image quality greater than 600x600 on an inkjet, life suddenly starts running very slowly. The old rule of you get two choices of speed, quality, and price still applies. -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA mailto:kstewart@3-cities.com http://www.3-cities.com/~kstewart/index.html Hunting Archibald Stewart, b 1802 in Ballymena, Antrim Co., NIR http://www.3-cities.com/~kstewart/genealogy/archibald_stewart.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
