I got mine from Lyco computers for about $170, six months ago.
It works fine. Does everything an Imagewriter does for a third of
the price, but also in a third of the speed.
The only thing it cannot do is to connect the Thunderscan to it.
Its ribbon is different to that of the ImWrter and the scanner does not
fit in the printer. I wonder if a quick fix can be done.
Other than that, I really like my printer.
