We couldn't get them to work properly with a 50 foot cable
(dataproducts parrellel) but they work fine with a 30 foot one.
(Apperently, either Prime or HP is violating some timing spec.  I
suspect both are.)

As with any other printer, it does wear out, and has minor quirks.
(One side faded at low humidity.)  Don't forget to include the drum
that needs replaced every million pages in figuring print costs.  They
arn't high duty cycle printers, plan on less than 100,000 pages/month.
At least one of the servicemen complained about our using 3-hole
paper, but a printer that can't handle it doens't belong in our
computer room.
