Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] HP 5si Laserjet printer for sale

["Ryan Thornton" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

yeah, for the past 5 years I've said the same thing about needing a printer.
I rarely need to print anything out and when I did I could just print from
my dorm room to the lab printer down the hall.  Later they consolidated
printers to 1 per building, but I figured out how to use netware to printer
to most printers on campus so that was cool.  Besides, after printing the
paper would get crushed or misplaced or coffee spilled on it.

Now it would be nice to have a printer to use a couple times a week, so I
could print lists and notes to give to people.  But I don't need something
as fancy as a nice 5si....
