I want to buy a laser printer for DTP with the Amiga. It should not cost more than $1200. Currently I would prefer the HP 4P laser printer which I can buy for $1050, but I am not sure if it is the right one. I want to: -print with 600*600 dpi DINA 4 full page. Is 2 MB printer memory enough ? I dont think so. -the printer should be able to print the page from the printers memory, because I need this page more than once( 4 pages/per minute). -print on one day more than 1000 pages (heat problems etc.). -to be able to connect it to an other computer too, lets say a Mac. -know if Postscript is very useful (HP 4MP). The printer has to be reliable, I dont need the newest stuff. I know only the price of the the HP 4P. What costs the 4MP, 4, 4Plus etc. ? Any answer is appreciated. -Franz flying from Aying(Germany) with Amiga 1200`030 & Autopilot
