[OS X TeX] OT: Good cheap laser printer?

[David Derbes]

I recently bought my daughter a HP LaserJet 1320 for $399 US, but it's 
now going for $299 US after a $100 US rebate.  She's very happy with it 
(running it off her iBook, OS X 10.3.7.) Double sided printing. Fairly 
compact. Seems much better built than the 1012 (I cannot find the 1010 
on HP's web site.)

Thanks for all you do, Gerben!
