- Next week, I am planning to buy a Samsung NoteMaster 386SX/25E with
- 4MB RAM and a 120MB hard drive, specifically for the purpose of
- running Linux (the price is CAN$2300, less than US$2000). I would
- like a printer to use with this system, preferably one which has
- existing dvi, Ghostscript and groff drivers. What is the best
- printer for moderate use (ca. 200 pages/month)? If I get an HP
- printer, will I need to buy a lot of RAM, or can the driver handle
- that within Linux? Thanks for any help -- I couldn't find much
- info in the packages on tsx-11.
