Re: Brother HL-L2340DW -_-
Guys! This started out with a pretty reasonable question about a particular printer 'has anyone else got one working' - seemed a pretty reasonable question to me, I and I would guess lots of other people on this list do not have such a printer - so we didn't reply. But somehow this seems to have developed into a flame war between someone who feels they Must respond and the op. For all our sakes - please chill it!

I simply use an expensive but fan-ridden cooler-master gaming pc chassis - enabled me to install things like disk caddies etc - in fact the chassis is more important if you ask me than The motherboard since I have upgraded mine twice since getting the chassis and then I am about to install water-cooling Sent from my iPhone > On 14 Apr 2015, at 17:53, Rick Stevens wrote: > >> On 04/13/2015 11:35 PM, Tim wrote: >>> On Mon, 2015-04-13 at 14:45 -1000, Jim Lewis wrote: >>> I agree that on cheap hardware this might be needed, however, I don't >>> think it's the case on good systems.
