Richard is right, parts etc for 'compact enabled' printers can be tricky to source, my personal two-pence worth (not sure how many cents or euros that might be !) is that we should allow printers for compacts, along with modems for compacts and scanners for compacts, indeed any peripherals that are to be used with a compact Mac. Cheers Mike
