Wasn't a problem for our high speed photostat machine (back when they were called that, rather than photocopier). Trying to remember how much you could stack into it, but it had to be at least four reams. I can well imagine that for low volume printers, you don't want a lot of paper stashed in them, absorbing moisture and fumes, and decomposing as modern paper is want to do. But you ought to, at least, be able to put a full ream into the large office printers. We were given a modern HP laser printer, last year. Tested it out, and white steam comes out with the page (well, actually condensation, since steam is invisible). Printing was definitely "hot off the presses." It'd been left somewhere where the paper had absorbed a lot of moisture, and printing heated up the paper to the point it cooks it out with the page. It did make for a rather impressive event as a page popped out. > also was so one could watch the secretary bend over more often to get > paper. ;-) LOL, and tut. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
