Does it explode? I have used other laser printers based on the Canon engine, and they are good for ALOT more than 300K copies. The LaserWriters around here have 500K+ on them, and though they are beginning to show signs of wear. I wouldn't worry to much... 300K copies is ALOT. 299,996 to go. More fun to come! It's the cartridges that are so expensive. Chris -- | Chris Petrilli | petrilli@gnu.ai.mit.edu | I don't even speak for myself.
