We have 7 Imagen laser printers and so far, the 8/300's have greatly outperformed the design life of the LBP-CX. We have had two overheating problems. (1) On a brand-new unit, we had a "personality board" that was overly sensitive to heat. Imagen replaced it under warranty and it's worked ever since. (2) Just the other day an 8/300 was flaking out (shrinking the image in the Y axis on random jobs) and cleaning the grossly clogged filter seems to have cleared things right up. Do you keep the filter clean? --Christopher -------
