Is it roughly this model? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16828112054 Do you plug this into a PC via USB or run it over the network using the Ethernet port? Any comments on the roller problem I had on my old laser printer? do the paper rollers remain engaged when the printer isn't printing and thus potentially cause flat spots? Thanks, Mark
