   I've never used it, but if it's anything like my old 5si it's a real 
workhorse.   Half of
its mass is the bulk paper feeder, and that's an optional accessory.  So it's 
not really
washing-machine sized.  It's like two mini-fridges stacked, and you can do 
without the
lower half if you don't want it.  I get name-brand toner cartridges on Ebay for 
1/8th 

the price of new HP cartiridges, and 1/4 the price of OfficeMax refills.   

  If nobody else wants it I'll tune it up and make it reliable so I can find it 
a home.

  In any case I'll deal with it.  I can fit it in my car.  It's my mess, I'll 
take care of it.

The printer will fit in my car. I am willing to transport it. I cannot help 
carry it. I cannot give it a home.

Hello:  

      Might anyone provide space for the Green Party Printer?  If it doesn't 
find another home in the next few days, it may go to a place that recycles old 
electronics.  

      It's a large HP color laser printer.  Caroline said it's bigger than a 
washing machine but smaller than a refrigerator.  It's currently sitting in 
Andrea's garage, and she needs it moved before ~January 1, preferably sooner.  
If you have space, we might be able to get others to move it.  

      Cameron hooked it to a router so it could be used as a network printer.  
By comparison, he said a new desktop color laser that prints roughly 3 times as 
fast can be purchased for perhaps $250 today.  A toner cartridge set runs 
roughly $125 and lasts perhaps 40,000 sheets.  If those numbers are accurate, 
then toner is roughly 3 cents per page.  This makes it much cheaper than color 
ink jet -- and cheaper than color copies at a copy shop.  If you wanted the 
current GP printer, the party would pay for the toner to print GP literature.  

      Cameron suggested we give it to a place that recycles old electronics if 
no one wants it.  

      Comments?
