On the subject of printers, I've just put my Xerox N2825 (1200 dpi A3 Laserprinter) on Ebay Germany as I'm moving overseas. Maybe it's of interest to someone on the list - it's always served me well for printing Finale files.

I think this is becoming less of a problem; because of their use in photography, big things are happening with inkjets. Has anyone ever seen a laser print flake off, stick to another surface, or transfer to other paper? Lasers have problems too. In any case, this is a good argument (among others) for selling a master set of parts and a license for the original purchaser to copy. I would like to find a printer (laser or inkjet) that will let me print 11x14 booklets for scores.
