One problem that we XyWrite users have to face is the lack of drivers for new
printers. A way around this seems to be the PostScript solution, although it
comes at a price.
I've been looking for a good but cheap PostScript printer for use in a low
volume environment, and have come across the Lexmark Optra K 1220, released in
June 1998, about $750 at CDW. Comes with PostScript Level 2 emulation built in,
automatic sensing of PCL or PostScript data, and saves resources (such as
downloaded fonts) when switching between PCL and PS. And, OS/2 Warp support.
Anyone have any experience with this printer and Xy4DOS? Any other sub $1,000
PostScript printers that are worthy of a look?
Many thanks . . .
