Repost from a while back. Still a good deal on a fast printer. I bought mine from my work when they closed down about two years ago. The cheapest place I've found for toner has been e-baay. I picked a toner cart up about a year ago when the low toner warning came on. I just put it in though because it still printed fine even though it said it was low.

 

[alchemist]

so how many pages, how much does the toner cost? any idea of a MTBF on them

 

[RossMAN]

17ppm is one helluva fast laser, not as fast as the 24ppm we have at work but this costs about 1/10th less.

According to the page counter on the printer, it's printed 22,320 pages. I'm pretty sure that this is the third toner cartridge to go into it. So I guess the carts are 10,000-11,000 pages. Prices vary when you are looking for toner. I got mine last year and I think I paid about $50 for it. I don't think I will ever print 10,000 pages so I doubt I'll be buying another cartridge for it.

Looks like it takes a standard 32 meg FP SIMM to upgrade the memory. I think I have a bunch of them in the scrap box. Cool! I just ordered one with the additional 500 page tray. Shipping is $40...

 

[Perplexer]

Yup, I stuck in a couple old 16MB SIMMS that were lying around, and the printer likes 'em just fine! The printer on its own is a nice size, but once you're done sticking two 500-sheet trays on it, it is a towering monster!

Given my printing demands, this printer will serve me for a VERY long time.
