Hello all,

I happened to find yesterday a Lexmark E120n laser with network interface for about $130. Seems it would be a compatible printer. Anybody offer any comments???

Thanks,
Cheers,
Glenn.

Resuming where this thread peeered out (<g>), can anyone tell us if the
Brother HL-2040 multi-function B&W laser has OS/2-eCS drivers?

  
      
The HL-2040 is not a multifunction device - it is only a laser printer 
(no scanner, no fax, no card reader etc.)

It works using the HL2060 or HL1250 Laserjet family drivers as long as 
you turn off advanced feature and set use system fonts only.

Still available at around A$149 in various stores (Office works, CE 
etc.) but was down to A$79 at one point.
    

Aha! 

There really is a logical reason for it being 'cheap' at $A48 rather than a
bargain.

Thanks Ed.

Info passed on to son who works at OW.
