and how hard would it be to find ink for such a printer. From what I understand that is an InkJet printer not a dot-matrix right!?

Oh I thought this was a discussion about the history of printers for the Amiga.....if you want a printer for miggy, just get any Centronics/Parallel printer with Epson compatibilty mode. Quiet a few lasers and Inkjets have Epson FX 80 or 800, some even have proprinter XL. Just a matter of hunting.

I actually am more into a commodore printer for my A500! I know that there where at least two - one which is dot-matrix and another which is inkjet. What I am afraid is if the inkjet printer could get dammaged easier then a dot-matrix printer and how easy it is to find ink for both of them. Fact is that I might not really use this printer a lot either.
