Subject: Diablo-compatible printers

I just got a package (TechType) which manages multi-font printers, one of them
being the Diablo 630 (or 630ECS).  I'm almost willing to sprint for the $$$
that the Diablo will require, but first would like to know if anyone knows
of Diablo 630-compatible printers that are of comparable quality.

Would especially like precise page-range reverse linefeeding, incremental
head movement, lots of fonts, reasonable price.  Speed secondary.

Have heard rumors regarding Qantex, C. Itoh, NEC 7715, Juki, Transtar, and
DTC, but most of these that I've followed up on are 1610-compatible, not
630.  Anyone out there had a similar interest?

Be happy to let everyone know what I find      -- sam [shahn@sumex]
