Sorry for the double post. Like I said, I'm not on a Mac right now. It's an old IBM (which of course stands for "Ishoulda Boughta Mac") ;)

Hey...you gotta Mac!:) You just "gotta" get it repaired...or upgrade to something newer!;)

Hey Nick...Heres a pic of that HP 6P at the thrift store. I fired it up today and made a test page. Needs to be cleaned up...just a matter of time it goes in the dumper.

So what's the deal with the printer? If you did a test page it must be for sale...right? So are you not interested in it...or does the thrift store want too much for it?:(

Right now its just in limbo..its just there in the back room. I moved all junk off it to test it and take the pic and put it back on the shelf. Right now they dont want nothing for it as no one that works gives a *#*! about old laser printers. I really do not need it. I have some extra Apple postscript lasers in storage. I just see theses things and report...that theres lots of old still workable stuff out if you look for it.
They would sell it to me for $5.00 or just wait for it to go in the dumpster..like my Pagepro 1250w came from.

Ok...now I understand...I thought for the right price you would take it. But if you don't need it...or have the room for it!;)

Someone with an older Mac set up or up to 10.4 with apple talk still could use this printer or on an old PC or Linux box could use it as well.
