| In a review article of HP LaserJet printer in Sept. issue of Microcomputing,
| the author, whose name I can't recall, mentioned that LaserJet "stinks"...
| Now we know that the Canon LBP-CX printing engine uses a dry toner system, and
| we also know that dry toner systems are less likely to give off offensive
| odors or fumes.  And to the best of my knowledge, nobody has ever mentioned
| that LBP-CX smells either on this list or on other magazines.  Was the
| reviewer having an ultra sensitve nose?

I keep my LaserJet next to my terminal (about 12 inches from my nose).
Nope, it does not smell.  But if I am using it *heavily*, I do notice an
odor like ozone.
