Homebrew PCBs

> I liked the old 4000  HP printers, Have worked them very hard in 
the past and only the rubber rollers need replacing from time to time 
and they keep on going.

My favorite is the lexmark Optra L or R series. You can get this for 
a couple of peanuts on ebay. The cartridges are cheap too, except you 
buy them direct from IBM/Lexmark. There is a nearly flat pass trough 
via manual paper tray and you are able to print to thic paper without 
troubles. May be I should try it direct to PCB with a nearly empty 
cartridge ;-)

With 1200 dpi this one is not realy fast but very clear, robust and 
cheap. With 600 dpi it is fast enough for me.

P.S. Can someone explain me, why very often you can read the same 
texts in 5 or 6 mails again? Please remove the old portion of text 
that is not necessary to follow the thread.
Thanks
