Whats wrong with a win-printer?
My laser is a "win"-printer, but had Linux drivers long before NT did.
All the printing is postscript, rendered by ghostscript, and a compressed
bitmap sent to the printer. All this works fine at a steady 6ppm for text,
at 1200 dpi.

  Are the inkjet win-printers not supported by ghostscript? Is there
another reason why they are no good?
