LOL! Yes, Thane, I have never believed the MPG stickers either!
Can you share what kind of paper jam issues you see?
I ask because I have never had a paper jam in 4.5yrs. Even when
I try to do manual duplex jobs, I get full 'double-sheet' feeds w/o
a jam.
Yes, I am lusting for a printer that does do duplex. I do know about
the jinky mechanics needed to do this. But then I am sorta budget
shopping also. I did read the UM for the Lexmark E360dn and it has
a very nice schematic of its' feed/jam station logic. I finally see and
understand how table-top printers do duplex inside. Amazing! Use
crummy paper and you are screwed. This is very easy to see!
Best,
Duncan

Real users do not just print the ISO/IEC 19752 Print Spec page all
day for the

Heh heh. True, but then again, nobody gets the MPG rating on cars
either. :)
I did find it interesting that Lexmark sells its' replacement Drum
kit for only $27US,
yet Brother and others still stiff the users ~$80-$150US for theirs.
I get it!
Man, I didn't look at the drum price. Granted that's only replaced at
25K or 30K pages, but still.
I sell both Brother and Lexmark, and we get a lot more paper jam
issues with Brothers, but it is still a significant savings.
