But thats almost 2x the cost of a Brother here in the states that has all 
that and looks like its twin. An HL-l2320d is something over a hundred 
dollar bill at Staples. Its been years since I looked at a Lexmark, the 
parent company, the last time I read their eula, it had a no warranty if 
used with linux disclaimer. Thats their problem, but I lost interest in 
supporting a jerk by buying their products. It may have changed, but I'd 
read the eula carefully before I dig out the card.
