I'll just say this. I have an HP 2100. That's a 600 dpi  REAL laser
printer. So far I have printed all instructions fresh. No photocopies.


They look good. Very good. Sometimes I go 2 up to get the paper count to
19 pages printed on 10 pieces of paper, and even at that scaledown they
still look crisp

The 2100 is essentially the followon for the HP LaserJet 4 you see in so
many offices. Mine cost me over 1000 USD after I got it JetDirected and
brought the memory up to 20M so I could render lots of graphics at one
shot.

Your instructions would be very high quality. I'd even put my heavier
stock paper in the printer instead of my normal stock... But they'd be
black and white.

My color printer is an InkJet (HP officeJet 500) and isn't that great,
it kind of smears.

But I'd make up a color cover at Kinkos and get originals printed if
that was what the market wanted. It adds about 2 bucks to the cost,
though.

(In detroit, gotta run, my BOS flight leaves in 30 min and I am still 20
gates away from my departure gate.)

(...) Dunno for certain.. I'd hate to pay $20 (for example) for some cheapie B&W photocopies... On the other hand, having ripped your design :) as best I could from photos and one LD image, I can respect the time and effort that went into putting (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.trains)
