They're physically the same, the Ms just have a network card installed.
To anyone considering buying one of this range: you may wish to avoid
the original non-Plus Laserjet 4 if you pay for your own electricity,
as (TTOBMK) it lacks powersave mode, so will be using full idle power
(~80W) whenever it's on. The Plus models go into powersave mode (11W)
once they've been idle for a short while (display shows 00 POWERSAVE).
Ed.
The 4L and 4ML are stripped-down
single-user-oriented printers, not
big modular monsters like the IIISi, 4MX, etc. The internal boards
for the 4L and 4ML are entirely different (but the engine is the
same). There is no PostScript SIMM in a 4ML; everything is soldered
to the board, plus the 4L has parallel only, and the 4ML has parallel
plus an 8-pin-DIN AppleTalk/LocalTalk connector.
Which sub-model of 4 DOES take
the Postscript SIMM?
