Yeah, I bought my last new laser on sale for about $100 shipped (a
Brother). At that price it's almost cheaper to replace it when it
needs a new drum.
OTOH, the Xerox N2825 with duplexer and maintenance kit that I just
picked up off of Craigslist was a deal. The seller's motivated (he
closed his business) and can't get rid of it because people think
it's too big. (Duh! It prints ledger-sized paper). After getting
the hang of configuring it (not simple!), I like it a lot. Pretty
fast at 28 ppm and very sharp print.
It has 32MB of memory in it, with DIMM slots for up to 196MB. I'm
trying to figure out what kind of memory works--so far, PC100 and
PC133 don't seem to be it. There's also a DIMM for flash and a hard
disk interface.
