My requirements for a printer to work with my 1040ST are fairly modest: * Near letter quality (this *is* a must for me) * Multiple character sets ("standard" character sets) * Graphics capability (doesn't have to be sophisticated) * Reasonable character speed in draft and NLQ modes (200/100 cps range respectively?) * Reasonable price (under $300 is good, < $200 is better) I had decided last year on a Panasonic 1091i(?), but since I didn't get it then, I would appreciate current recommendations/views based on experience (ideally). If a survey or summary has been done in the recent past, a copy of that would be great. E-mail reply is best, but if there is general interest, perhaps a posting would be worthwhile. Thanx for the help. Jeff Shore at {..!ihnp4}!druin!jhs
