With some Laserjets, it's easy to replace the rollers that usually need replacing. Some of the older ones especially were a pain that way.
You also don't want to go too old (older than the various Laserjet 4 models), because then you get ozone emissions from an earlier printing technology. And I think the 4's were the first to have 600 dpi. And front paper feed is more reliable than top. With color inkjet printing, some stores may offer an arrangement where you buy the printer and a contract that lets you trade in the printer for a new comparable one for free within a certain time period. It might end up being more economical than buying a new printer and then buying replacement ink cartridges. People often give away perfectly fine inkjet printers when they run out of ink, because it's cheaper to buy a new whole printer than to replace the cartridges. Inkjets generally aren't very economical for occasional printing. I'd love to find out about one where the ink keeps well when just sitting there for months, while still producing good pictures when it's finally used. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
