It does as the add says, including using a "push tractor" which allows you to park your tractor-fed paper and print cut sheets, then return to the tractor-fed paper fairly automatically. All this for $339 mail order. I find the NLQ output more than acceptable, and I think you'd be pretty hard pressed (without a lot of squinting or a magnifying glass) to tell it from typewritten output. The proportional spacing is very nice too. As for its longevity, I'm sure it won't be up to my old Okidata 92, since the case and innerds are mostly plastic. So far (1 month!) it hasn't had any problems though. --Peter
