     Jim asks:
     >1)  Is there a replacement printer for the 2934A (we use four of
     >these and they are real work horses)?

     question from a fellow lister.

     GmbH in Germany but can be purchased thru HP.  It is dot matrix and
     can handle up to 6-part forms.  It includes "typical HP 2934 and HP
     2235" emulation.  You have a choice of either fanfold or cutsheet.
     Throughput of 500 pages/hour or 20,000 pages/month.  Built for a heavy
     printing workload but quiet enough to operate in an office
     environment.  Draft:600cps   NLQ:300cps  LQ:150cps

     Parallel Centronics and serial RS232C/RS 422(can use a JetDirect EX
     Plus to connect to a LAN)

                Matrix 2 of 5, User defined

     Jim,

     I am faxing you a copy of a datasheet.  Some of it will not come thru
     the fax very clean but the most important information should be very
     readable.
