The Color LaserWriter was a line of PostScript four-color laser printers manufactured by Apple Computer, Inc. in the mid-1990s. These printers were compatible with PCs and Apple's own Macintosh line of computers; these printers were also able to connect to large networks by way of the use of an 10baseT Ethernet port. Two models were released.
Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS
A PostScript printer, the Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS color laser printer was intended for small business and consumers with high printing requirements. The Windows-compatible driver was of interest due to its ability generate Postscript files (.ps) for later printing.
This printer was released in 1995,[1] one year before its replacement with the Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS, which had the same specifications as the 12/600 PS, but was sold at a lower price.
Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS
The Color LaserWriter 12/660 PS is a color laser printer introduced by Apple in October 1996. The printer became a workhorse used in Kinko's copy stores across the United States. The printer's weight, size, speed of printing, and high cost of purchase, operation, and maintenance were its chief drawbacks.
