Printers! Printers! Printers!

Postby stack » Wed Jul 01, 2009 10:01 am

I have the opportunity to pick up a bunch of laser printers. They are used, but they all seem to be in good shape. I can't take them all and the recycling group is coming early Friday morning.

If anyone is interested, please let me know asap.

I am trying to get a list of the printer models now. I will post when I get them.

OK, I got some light details
4 of the printers are the desk sized ones (about the same size as the ones I brought last time).
However, the other 6 are the monstrous business class printers.

Personally, I don't think that the 6 big ones are worth it. First, I don't think these will fit in my vette. :lol: Second, once you get to printers this large, if you are not constantly printing then you are not really utilizing the full potential. Plus you have to think of any costs associated with fixing printers of this scale.

Let me know if any one wants one. I am still working on getting model numbers.

It's craaaaaaazy Davemon!!!!

What models are they? I might be interested in a matching set of the larger printers.

One for parts ya know! Worst case scenario, I have a recycle yard a mile away from me.

Any of them color lasers? :-D

I know a guy who can take them and probably give you some money for them.

So here is a really late update :P (I had to leave out of town for the weekend and I left pretty quick on Thursday)

I went down to collect the printers last Thursday, but there was no way I was going to get them in my Vette. I thought about loading up just a few of the smaller printers but the guy said that he could hold on to them for a little longer if I wanted to arrange for someone to help pick them up. So as of right now, I am trying to get a van from someone I know. As soon as I do, I am just going to get a few of them and I will bring them to the meeting.

Also, I still don't have a model list because I blanked out Thursday trying to hurry up and not peeve off the people I was traveling with. :oops:

@Terry
I don't have a model list but the previous printers I have gotten from this group have all worked with Linux.

@erroneus
As far as I know none of them are color.


I will post when I have more info.

The printers are all gone to happy homes. Ok, I presume they are happy homes. :)

Recipients.....Jon, Dwayne, Terry, Ann and her hubby, ME, and the Azle VFW post.

Sorry Erroneus, no color printers, all B & W.


Many thanks to Stack and bestowing such rich rewards upon us. Or in other words, one mans junk is another mans treasure! :lol:
