| Since I have no experience with the other printers on your list, I will
only give my experiences with the Panasonic KP-1124.
I have had mine for about 1 year now and love it. Not a single
problem.
I especially like the auto-load and backoff functions. I use both
fanfold and single sheet quite frequently and the Panasonic makes it
very easy to backoff the fanfold and run a single sheet of letter head
through the front. The dual feed option (either feed from the back or
bottom) is nice too. Selection of any font/pitch/line pitch can be
selected easily from the front panel or under program control. I
usually use the front panel as it is much easier to do than to read the
software manuals of the program I'm using to see how to insert printer
variables in the text.

| Ken,
Which driver do you use, and does it produce graphics?

| Angus,
I use the EpsonQ driver. The panasonic emulates either the Epson
LQ command set or the I*M ProPrinter command set. Yes it does do
graphics. I haven't played much with the graphics part, but it seems
to do as good as any other printer.

| 3706.4 | Well I did it, went out and bought a Citizen Swift 24 | SUBURB::MCDONALDA | Old Elysian with a big D.I.C. | Wed May 16 1990 09:26 | 33 |
| 3706.5 | not really 360 DPI resolution | SAUTER::SAUTER | John Sauter | Mon May 14 1990 05:31 | 5 |
| At least on the NEC P6, the 360 DPI resolution mode is not what it
sounds like---it's not 120% of a 300 DPI laser printer. The pins
are 1/180th of an inch in diameter, so increasing the resolution
from 180 DPI to 360 DPI produces only a slight increase in quality.
