Well, yes, but considering it's $300+ US for a network card, it's a relatively simple matter to adjust your energy saver settings so that the computer hooked up to the printer never sleeps. (Or, for the energy-conscious, to go up and wake the computer hooked up to the printer prior to printing

I bought a used HP 5siMX for a hundred quid with a quarter million copies logged. It's an A3 laser, w/duplexer, postscript, network built in. These things can do a couple of million copies so my 10,000/year shouldn't stress it! I maxed out the memory to 72mb for $30 + $5 shipping to the UK. Whe

Hi Don, I have a Ricoh AP2610 (with duplexer), the predecessor to the AP600N. I got a great deal on it and have no regrets -- at the time, I could not have afforded an HP 11x17 printer under any circumstances, and my Ricoh has generally gotten the job done. However, it has been somewhat buggy

Maybe it is the same fontset, but when I open a postscript font file from FinWin2004 in Fontlab the Unicode encoding is different from a FinWin 2005 font file.

What you are asking for--in theory--ought to be fairly simple. It's not that a plugin could re-use Finale's word-extension code. But the new word extensions (Fin04) are implemented as special "smart shapes". A plugin should be able fairly easily to find every word-extension smart shape and add a
