There is a really nice Lexmark laser printer in the shop, brought in by Shane.

It will do duplex (double sided printing) but it seems to jam every
time.  So don't do automatic duplex.  (You can load the paper in twice
to do double sided "manually")

It's super fast, at about 35ppm and produces a pretty clean output.  I
think it'd be suitable for doing PCBs with the toner transfer method
if you're interested in doing that.  Its also suitable for, you know,
printing things.  Please bring in some paper if you have some extra.

Because the shop is far too dusty for a laser printer to survive long,
a makeshift dust cover has been laboriously fashioned from the finest
of native HackPittsburgh materials.  The printer and its high quality
dust cover is sitting near the hackerphone in the corner.
