And we're even running it through a multiplexor! (Maybe that's the secret?) Its print quality is a little ragged when running vtroff (alternate pixels are off by as much as 1/400th of an inch (i.e., half a dot)), but that's more or less acceptable. Considering the amount of output that gets pushed through the beast, it's remarkably reliable (I don't remember the last time it was down). Maybe you got a lemon? =Spencer
