Otoh, my laserjet uses 600dpi and that is (for normal use) quite good. If I need higher qualities I use a printshop. As I understood the OP is a home user and in that sence 600dpi is ok. As for the heads: you have a point there. I could live with that and would buy a one-head-cartridge though;-) And, most importantly (to me), NO cups ;-) -- dick -- http://nagual.nl/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.1 +++ The Power to Serve
