1) Take older
well-built product which does exactly what I need, and
spend a small sum in parts and maybe four hours of time to make it
good for another five years.
That is what I do with my old (and trustworthy) HP Laserjet 4 Plus. I
have rollers, gears, motor, lots of spare parts, since I see no
replacement for it. Half a million pages, 7000 prints/cartridge and
still ticking, thanks! :o)
I hear that so often about Laserjet 4 series printers. Time and again someone
asks what the best laser printer is to get, and there'll be a flurry of people
telling them to get a used Laserjet 4. Practically bomb-proof those things are.
Possibly the last good-quality product that HP built? :-)
cheers
