The subject says it all. Sigh. So I'm looking for a laser printer with roughly the same reliability and speces as the 360, including being able to connect to an ethernet network, which I now do through an Asante Ethernet-AppleTalk converter. Price 400-600 USD.

I'm running 9.1 on a graphite G4.

Thanks
Mike Hugo

I answered your post over on MacCentral, but the answer wasn't that long,
I'll just repeat it:

Why are you getting rid of the LWS 360? the specs call for a minimum useful life
of 300,000 prints - I'm using one and am at 81,000+ prints with never a problem
other than a couple of faulty toner cartridges.

These suckers were built to last and to work!

Mine is networked to two iMacs and a Performa 6360 and works beautifully with all.

The grinding noise its making sounds to me as if there is something seriously wrong. The only mac repair shop near me (Northern Va, MacHeaven) quoted me a minimum labor charge of $40-80,even if he determined it wasn't worth fixing, and even if I bought another printer from him. How stupid! I simply picked up the printer and went home, and he made nothing. I know the margins on printers are small, but it still would have been better than nothing.
