I was about to ask something similar -- ten years ago, "clones" of 
Postscript were known to cause problems, but so many have been sold 
since then I had assumed that the problem was resolved. I don't know 
that I've seen a "genuine" PS printer in quite some time.

As for relevance -- for what most people do (ie Office), Postscript is 
completely irrelevant. It's only us fools who still do EPS vector art 
that need it.

The last PS printer I used was a Xante model ... 1200 dpi, 12x18, 
multi-tray thing ... really nice. Had "clone" Postscript but was NEVER 
a problem.

PS. I followed your lead and left that other list you and I were on. 
They made it pretty clear they take the free help for granted over 
there. I've been on this list a long time and it's just plain nicer 
here.

There is only ONE WAY to get through the hype for and against the new 
film "Farenheit 9/11" -- see it for yourself and make up your own mind. 
Everybody else, please shut up.
