RE: IBM 4247 printer ordered 2 months ago -- still waiting

Greg,

I wouldn't touch a 4247 with a 10' pole.  At my previous place of employment, 
our 4247 basically had to be rebuilt once a year.

If you're looking for multiple tractor feeds, take a look at the Printek 
Tri-Track printers:

Even if all you want is single tractor, take a look.
