        @SwiftOnSecurity I still have one of these in storage, working fine until the day I put it there.

          @SwiftOnSecurity we all understand. Its sad to see something reliable go.

          I drove a '94, gold/bronze escort. That thing was a shitbox. The only door that opened was the driver's door. It chugged oil. But god damn did it get me 45 minutes from Detroit to Ann Arbor every weekend for datacenter ops.

                  @SwiftOnSecurity Fair enough. Just curious; those models are indestructible in my experience.

                    @SwiftOnSecurity omg what a class act! This is from the days when HP made practical business machines that worked hard. You could look up to those printers. They gave off that quiet sense of pride – still humble, but they knew they were appreciated.

                      @SwiftOnSecurity I have a 1300 that started life as an office printer, and became mine when it retired from that job, 17 years ago. Those old HPs will outlast the last cockroach. No firmware checking who made the cartridge. No malware. No direct connection to the network, but it can be shared as I need. USB so I don't need to cobble together a parallel interface. I love that printer.

                        @SwiftOnSecurity

                        I had a 4100 for a decade - after it was thrown out into a skip in early 00's. It must have printed hundreds of thousands of pages in its life and it was still working perfectly.

                        The only reason I freecycled it back to the wild was because I found a better 5000 series in yet another skip which lasted us for another decade.

                        Finally got replaced by a Brother with a faster rate.

                        From the times when HP really did good equipment, and wasn't an ink company.

                          @SwiftOnSecurity i had a HP4050dn for 20years until something burned on the mainboard six months ago. Great piece of hardware, bought used, still searching for a valid replacement.

                            @SwiftOnSecurity Oh, I still have this exact model in use. With extra paper trays, duplex unit, max. memory and network interface. Of course the printer network is segregated by a hardware firewall. Works perfectly fine. The only issue is that it doesn't support color. But it's extremely fast and cheap.
