You might also check out the new Fujitsu DL1100.  We were impressed with its
quality and the price is about the same as the Epson LQ-510.  Since it is
brand new, I can't comment about longevity.  However, it looks good and may
be worth considering especially if you need a small footprint.  Just ignore
the fact that it looks like a toaster.
