Off topic to the discussion of mac suitable printers but according to the user manual, Samsung ML-1740 comes with a 1,000 page toner cartridge, replacements are 3,000 pages; fuser unit and rollers are rated for 60,000 pages (by which stage you recycle it and get a new printer)

So remember to include that in the pricing ... the supplied consumables can run out fast.



Well, buy.com has it (the ML-1740) for $50 after rebates,free shipping. I got it.

I think a $30 UDB print share box (Belkin) wil be fine. And I know my wife really would use a networked laser. The little HP 5L's are Ok but the aftermerket repair parts are starting to fade after about 1.5 years and I don't know if I wish to put anther round of page separators into them, $25 each or so.

Thanks for the right rating for the fuser; I must have jumbled #'s, I've been looking at lots of of printer info.

I know it will for well via XP, it should work OK via OSX, maybe a little slower to render than ideal. I print mostly to pdf these days, not as much to paper as my wife does, so it should work. I grabbed all the drivers from the Australian support site already. I think that 1000 pages is about 8 months of home printing, she tries to do big print jobs for classes at the univ.

I'll post about sharing to OSX experiences.
