Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] HP LaserJet Series II

I used a IIID for a while.
Did work well with HP toner, the cheap remanufactured one wouldn't.

Switched to a 600 DPI printer because the IIID wouldn't do the 0.5mm QFN
packages too well.

Anyone gutting a II or III HP with good paper pickup rollers - let me know
;-)
