Hi Jackie.Yeah, I just wondered. I used an HP laser machine for a while, but the toner started to degrade meaning patchy and streaky print so I got rid of it. The machine itself was an HP1020 LaserJet which I picked up at a bargain of just 70 pounds. The cartridge replacement was going to cost me 65 so I decided to buy a whole new printer which is really why I'm asking for advice now.
All the best and thanks for your input.----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Ibrahim I use a mono laser. It's a Samsung ML2151 which I've had about four years. It prints at 20 pages per minute and has two trays, one to hold a whole ream of paper, and the other to do envelopes and labels. It runs on USB and Parallel, though I use it on USB. Before that, I had a Brother mono laser for years. When I was doing my journalism courses at college, I did get a cheap HP inkjet so I could work with colours as colour lasers were very big and expensive then. But I only ever used it when I had to do something say for a cover or magazine, and I gave it to my son who still uses it today. Colour lasers have diminished in size and price to what they were, but I guess it depends how much you will use it, and may well find that a mono will do the job for straightforward documents.

Do you use a monochrome machine IE black and greyscale or do you have a colour machine. When I returns this Lexmark, I may go for a laser again. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
