New Printer
By Well, okay, secondhand printer.
The HP Laserjet 4100N that I ordered off eBay arrived this afternoon; almost a week later than I had expected. It was very well packaged although I had to take it apart to ensure that there was no polystyrene pieces stuck inside it. It's actually a 4100 with a jet direct network card installed but that's no major difference. The biggie is that the listing stated it had a duplex unit with it, but it hasn't; again, it's not a major problem because I already had a duplex unit anyway. Suffice to say with the time taken for delivery, the lack of communication and the inaccuracies in the listing I've left neutral feedback.
Anyway, after installing extra memory in it out of my old printer and fiddling with a few of the settings it's up and running fine. I did have a small problem with paper jamming in the duplex unit but changing the paper tray has solved that.

Apparently the lady responsible for eBay listings and email communications had been off work. She was nice enough to offer a partial refund if I withdrew my feedback. Was happy to do so and got £8.99 back; so, the printer cost me less than £30 inclusive of delivery. Not bad at all.
Hmmm, well whether she was being truthful or not, you got the best out of the deal. :-)
