Hello everyone-

The Bedford Institute Library is looking to acquire a new microform
reader/printer. I have had positive experiences with the service on our old
Canon NP780, and have a chance to replace it with a rebuilt Canon NP980
manual model.  We are also looking at the Minolta MS6000 digital machine. I
have two questions for the list:

Has anyone had any experience with either the Canon NP980, or the Minolta
MS6000, good or bad, that you can share with me?

I would like to get an idea of what sort of service is available in the
Halifax-Dartmouth area for the Minolta equipment. Any experiences you care
to report would be helpful.

Thank you very much!
