Hi Bob,

I'll let you in on our little secret, we buy them at auction for about $200 - $400, most have hardly been run in, we check the duty cycle before purchase. No one wants to purchase them because they are the size of a washing machine. I have had the previous model for 5 years and it never skipped a beat nor did I ever service it. It gets absolutely hammered at work. The toners are huge and last 6 months but cost less than $100 to recharge. Cheapest, fastest and most reliable printers on the market.

                      Regards,
                      Eugene

I haven't experienced printing delays but we have just installed a new HP 8150 which is so fast the paper flies out the tray before you hit the print button!

At 32 pages per minute and $4000   I would hope so !

Beats an old Stylewriter 2 or Epson Photo 700 ........... !

Oh I wish ..... !
But then one can't have the dollars and the Printer.
