 |
|
Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for suggestions from experienced Laser users as to what
budget models I should be looking at for very low usage, mono printing
at home. By very low usage, I mean maybe up to 20, 5 page letters and
associated envelopes a week! I'm considering a Laser because there maybe
times when I don't print for weeks and I realise that an inkjet printer
might be problematic if left unused for weeks at a time.
Many thanks,
John. |

I am in the some position. Most of the inexpensive printers do not work with
MS Vista. Any recommendation for Vista.... |

Your IP address suggests you're in the UK. If you're anywhere near the
West Midlands I have a Brother HL-1050 mono laser I'm looking to part with
for a nominal sum (several pints of beer..!). It has a parallel port and a
USB port, there's also a print server box available if you want to connect
it to a network.
It works with Win 98 through to XP, not tried it with Vista. It also works
with DOS, should you be a luddite like me <g>
It's long out of production so supplies might be a problem, but there are
two unused toner cartridges with it, which should last for 2000+ sheets
each. The drum has plenty of life in it though I think.
Email me at the sending address (replace .invalid with .com) if
interested.

Yes, but you obviously didn't get my reply. Basically I said that with
your location, it would probably cost as much as the printer is worth to
send it by post, it's quite a heavy beast..! I'd check locally with
somewhere like Staples first to see what they have, if you still want it
let me know.
Cheers,
Ivor |
