G'day mates, I'm looking for a reasonable laser copier/printer, with emphasis on the copier side of things at the moment. In fact, I could be persuaded to go for a simple stand-alone copier for the time being at least. Be that as it may, and returning to the combo function... The Fuji-Xerox PE220 looks like it might be the bee's knees from the price here in Oz at the moment and the specs (such as I've been able to find details on them, which isn't comprehensive). Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a reliable review of the beast. Most of the "reviews" turned up by Google are nothing more than a regurgitation of FX's PR blurb on the machine. The only independent comment I found was from a Mac user who was peeved that the thing didn't really live up to its promise to work with Macs. (IIRC is was the scanner side of the unit that caused him angst.) But problems from the POV of Mac owners are not relevant to me as I'm a happy PC owner. :-) So, question is, would anyone out there with practical experience using the PE220 be prepared to share their comments on its performance with the rest of us, please? I'm especially interested in output quality, reliability (i.e. paper jams and similar misfortunes) and cost of operation. (My email addy works [given obvious editing] should you prefer to reply personally rather than broadcast your views to the world at large.) Thanks for reading and TIA for any advice offered. Cheers, Phred. -- ppnerkDELETE@THISyahoo.com.INVALID
