It is out of production, but used ones are inexpensive (< $100 USD) and the 1300 is nearly identical. They're widely available on ebay. It has a "real" CPU (ie, not windoze controlled) with 8MB memory, native postscript, PCL 5, and PCL 6 at 15 pages/min and a 1/2 ream paper tray. Only possible drawback is it's USB. New toner carts' are $50 - $70 and yield 4000 - 6500 pages for me. The wife & I have run over 30K pages through it in 4 years, no problems. Beware of the newer HP "personal sized" lasers -- many are windoze only. -RW
