So, the HP Business InkJet 2300 expired after many years... At least seven but it could be as many as ten... Not bad really...
Went to the shops today and got one of these...
It is an Samsung M2825ND Xpress Mono Laser Printer and quite splendid... it was just over €200 with a new toner (they all seem to come with a 'starter' toner now)...
It is incredibly fast and quiet and has a built-in duplexer....
A long was from the first laser priner I sold, the HP LaserJet 1
It was a complete revelation at the time (we all had matrix or daisy-wheel printers) but cost thousands and you couldn't lift the fucker!
