Last night, walking home from downtown Menlo Park, I saw a HP Color LaserJet model 2605DN sitting on the corner of Wallea Drive and San Mateo Drive closest to Middle Avenue. (The two streets intersect twice, so I'm saying this is the corner further south, nearer to Middle Avenue.) Sign on the printer said 'Works but needs toner cartridge'. That's one of these: https://www.amazon.com/HP-LaserJet-2605dn-Printer-Q7822A/dp/B000FBWL2O 16 x 18 x 15 inches, 600 x 600 dpi, includes 10/100 ethernet & USB2, does duplex printing, weighs 42 lb. First sold 2006. The catch is of course the toner cartridges. You'd spend about $270 to replenish the colour cartridge bundle (K, C, M, Y). Or $100 for a third-party compatible bundle. OTOH, it's probably way cheaper over time than an inkjet. Tt's slow, reportedly about 4-6 ppm. It's quiet. Superb print quality. If you think you might want this thing, hurry up and drive over[1], because it's going to rain tonight. (No, it's not mine; I just saw it there.)
