I have an even older hpljIII. It is maybe not quite as fast as the LJ5
and maybe 1/2 the dpi but is built like a brick shit house and uses one
of the lowest cost toner cartridges out there. My only regret is not
buying the 'D' version so I could do double sided printing. But for
under $300 in used-reconditioned it was a good buy. BTW if anyone has
an extra legal size paper tray for an HPII/III series printer they want
to get rid of let me know and we'll deal .....
