Offering help. If you want to spend more money upgrading an obsolete
printer than you could spend buying a new one, it won't hurt my
feelings. But, this being a "help" forum (actually a news group, but
most google groupies are too clueless to figure out what usenet is, and
that they're posting to it, so you're excused) I offer useful
information whether or not it's what you WANT to read.

That's not the scope of the problem you originally posted. And, the
above demonstrates you don't have any real understanding about how
laser printers work.

You can buy a good PostScript printer today for a couple of hundred
bucks. You wanted a 4M+ then and now? You got one. So WTF is your
complaint? That it won't print files from a modern version of
Illustrator? ROFL! So sad. It sucks to be you.
