I said i'd shut up about inkjets being the only viable alternative to
doing fine work.

Why hasn't anyone ever said how fine they can go with a laser. If they'd
had have a year ago, i wouldn't have said anything in the last year.

At least someone has now said that they can do fine pitch work with a
laser. Why do i have to go to these lengths to extract this simple bit
of information? How can i reliable reproduce the results? Has anyone
done fine pitch work with a 1200dpi lexmark?
