This is very similar to the hundreds of 4200dtn's that are scattered all over my workplace. They are very fast machines, and this one is essentially just as fast. Print jobs start almost instantaneously, and print very quickly. (An occasional website will require a bit more time to print, but very unusual.) This is very Mac compatible, and seems to be more "it just works" on the Mac than with the PCs at work. (My workplace is mostly PCs with some Suns.)

Besides the speed, what motivated me to retire my many years old LaserWriter (AppleTalk, pre-ethernet) is the availabilty of the duplex unit (available separately and at extra cost unfortunately) to automatically produce 2-sided printing (again very speedy). Worth the extra cost... (with the price break amazon was giving approx one month ago, almost a freebie considering current pricing).

Can't vouch for the Postscript emulator one way or the other at this point...

My company has owned the 4200 model for several years with zero problems.
We've only had the new model for one month and have had no problems so far. We are still using the old model in another capacity. These are great business printers.

The printer is one we have ordered before and works very well for the application we are purchasing them for. The only problem was during shipment a part became dislodged and we had to repair it.
