Decent, Networkable Color Printer

[Rick Franklin]

Had a Lexmark Z-22 and have a Z-42 ... both sucked ink dry in record 
time. If anyone wants the Z-42,
you can have it. Perhaps to a patient re-filler of ink cartridges, it is 
of some value.

Did not know to steer clear of Epson, but SUSE's printer detection and 
driver support for my
Stylus C62 was immediate and flawless, and it still shows high ink 
levels after light to moderate use.
It is noisy, and slow, but good finished product. I am told that part of 
the noise is a nozzle cleaning
process at the beginning of a print job. Is that true? I don't know for 
sure.
