I have an HP Laserjet 4000, extracted from a client's leaky, rodent and bug infested storage building. Printed with streaks, smudges, lines and blank spots. Rescued it from the dumper and took it home. Cleaned it out with compressed air, cotton swabs and dust free cloths everywhere I could get to. Put in a new toner cartridge and it's been giving me excellent prints for the last 5 years. Not heavy usage, but probably run 30-40 reams of paper through so far, plus envelopes and disc labels. Also have 2 - HP 4315 AIO printers and a 6988 wireless, color printer. Never had any serious problems with HP... 'cept their ink cartridges cost too d**n much (Tho' the company reimburses me for much of it)! ;-) Amanda --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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.
