	i got a epson stylus 600....works fine.
	i use .... to convert to postscript.
	its an ink-jet and as such does not have the sharp
	definition of a laser...but its a lot cheaper.

	depends upon your needs.


ls|ep600|epson600|Espon Stylus Color 600:\
        :sh:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd:\
        :lp=/dev/lpt0:\
        :if=/usr/local/libexec/if-postscript
