  That it could do..  Hard for me to think of it as big and heavy 
though, I only tend to remember the 250 pound wide carriage 1200 DPI 
laser in the attic that has to come back down some day..  So bulky it's 
hard to figure out the right way to pick it up so it doesn't pull you 
off balance, basically a giant printer with it's own built in cart that 
doesn't have the cart.  Got it up there somehow though, anything I can 
pick up now without a serious fight with gravity seems small after 
having that experience.  Think I paid $5 just to pay something for it, 
wish I'd paid $10 for it not..  Drum probably still has some value 
though if it's not destroyed from the attic, had a $900 retail price and 
was why I picked it up.  Still not much call for used, so wouldn't get 
much for it..
