- Great printer. Had a friend that bought one and i had it over here at my house
- for about 2 weeks before i let him take it home :)
- It's fast, it's quite, easy to use, overall nice. I can't say whether
- spending the extra dollars on a lowend laser would be better. I haven't had
- any experience with the lasers you're talking about so i can't compare.
-
- I only used Pagestream for printing, but the quality was great. There was a
- problem with little black smudges when printing type from CedPro, but my
- friend fixed the problem after he took it home. (I don't recall what the
- nature of the problem was though).
