I remember when I got access to the Apple LaserWriter II at my dad’s work for the first time. Until then all I had access to had been dot matrix printers at school. As fun as folding springs from the side tabs was, this new printer opened so many doors for me. Illustrator (of the Aldus variety) drawings came out perfectly. School papers looked good. I couldn’t get over what I could now do. I still have a deep fondness for laser printers and I’ve never owned anything else. As the article notes, they ‘just work’, and the results allow near-perfect reproduction really quickly.
