I have a LaserJet 2300n that's also worked out very well. It has about the same footprint as the 4m it replaced, but it's much faster. Good network interface and good Postscript support. The paper trays seem a little flimsy compared to the 4, but I haven't broken one yet. > Used office-class equipment, I can't emphasize it enough.

I checked mine with a Kill-A-Watt and found no measurable power draw (less than 1 watt) in standby. After that I stopped bothering to turn it off. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
