We've got one Lanier LP020c (a Ricoh Aficio CL2000N rebadged). We've run into problems with this printer flat out crashing every 3-5 days, even if it doesn't print anything. When it's running, it prints ok, although it won't accept transparency media from the paper trays. We find that "feature" a little irritating, but the printer crashing--locking up with a service code on the display, no response over the network--is an issue. If you opt to try one of these, push for a demo product or return period in case you have trouble with reliability... -- ======================================================================== ==== John Perkins | University of Wisconsin-Madison Associate Researcher | Department of Computer Science [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 1210 W.
