I am interested in purchasing a printer for my apple //c. Specifically I am
looking at the Panasonic 1080i and 1080ap. The 1080i has Epson compatible
graphics but has a parallel port, so therfore I would need a parallel to 
serial converter. Will this work? The 1080ap is Imagewriter compatible but 
runs at 90cps vs 120cps for the 1080i.

My question is:
  1.) Is it a good idea to get an Imagewriter compatible printer for the //c or
      is a printer with Epson compatible graphics just as good? (will most 
      graphics software work?)

Also, I would appreciate any comments re: Panasonic printers in general.

                                         Thanks a lot,
                                         Hank
