Ask a person who owns one.
1) ELAN's DWB software is no better than AT&T's.
AT&T's DWB prints just fine on my lj+.
2) ELAN's 'pic' can only print trivial diagrams.
Four elipses with eight arrow arcs caused "error 21"
(the page formatting process is not fast enough for
the printer) on my lj+.
AUTOCAD, on the other hand, generates top-quality Space Shuttle graphics
on the same printer!
