A guy buys windows crap and complains about support! Another one said recently "inexpensive" is "cheep" and "cheep" is shit. I was using a 15y/o HP 4L until last year, when it finally gave up and maintenance cost was higher than buying a new one. Buy a decent printer and be happy. I bought HP 402dn - will work the next 15y. It pays off over time, believe me. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
