@Heterokromia
Which model was it? Just as a warning to others.
@yogthos
@markusl @Heterokromia @yogthos don't buy any hp. I made this experience already, it didn't like a thin paper and just irreparably locked up. It's a bad company
@piggo
We have an oldish HP laser, and it works well, but I'd buy a Brother if I had to make a distress purchase today.
@Heterokromia @yogthos
