You Draper's stick together <BG>. And you'll even pay shipping on that
feather-light  baby, eh ? ;-)

Printronics printers are work horses, we had used Printronics P300 and
P600's (300 lpm and 600 lpm) although those are obsolete now, Printronics
does have equivalents just with new part numbers and faster.  Not cheap
printers, but they last.  And when they do fail you get a new print head
(when a pin fails), new shuttle, etc..  they are meant to be fixed, not
thrown away.

Also, the Printronics could be connected either twinax or parallel depending
on the option you ought.

There is another manufacturer out there, can't remember the name, but they
make a multiple form printer, you can load it with 3 separate forms and it
will load the correct one.  AS/400 print files can specify which form to
load so they do work from AS/400's.  I just can't for the life of me
remember the manufacturer.

This one is parallel, but you can connect twinax with emulator.

any recommendations?  parallel attach to a twinax printer with IBM
Pro-printer emulation.
