Printer Question - AXIANT 4GL - A3 Size Reports

[Jeff Hoffman]

Laser printers I think are the best, just set the default font to courier 
size 10 or 11 depending upon what will fit your largest report. The main 
problem is volume of printing required at each print station, the cheapies 
only support low volume work, if you get one that has a 2 to 3,000 sheet 
feeder should suffice. You could most probable replace a few of the old dot 
matix printers with one laser but do not forget redundancy, you should 
allow for the fact that they do break down.

I personally would recommend a HP laser (has the best PCL support), but I 
have used a Lexmark lasers as it had a 4,000 sheet (A4) feeded, I could 
load the paper at the beginning of the day and just forget about it.
