[WISPA] A neat little ethernet controlled dual power outlet

2010-11-23 Thread Greg Ihnen 
I know the topic of remotely controlled resettable power outlets has come up a 
few times on this forum so I think this might be of interest.

http://www.controlbyweb.com/webswitch/

This company makes the web based controller I use on our generator here. I'm 
very impressed with their products. They just came out with this web based 
ethernet controlled dual power outlet. The better version offers remote temp 
and input monitoring, scheduling and email alerts.

I have no financial interest in this or relationship with these folks. I just 
think they make a good product. Their web controller on our generator has been 
flawless.

Epson makes the great dot matrix printers for the price. If you need or want
a dot matrix ;)

Brother printers are good but they dont keep up with their drivers. I had a
customer with dozens of them but they wouldn't talk to the terminal server.
I worked with Brother support over the phone and their level 3 support guy
said it wouldn't work. The customer had to purchase all new HP printers
which worked like a charm. To be fair, this was a few years back.

This one is a little noisy but the mechanism is fast. We also have a
Lexmark c543DN color laser with an extra paper tray. I've had good luck
with that as well.

For b/w lasers, I like Brother.  Solid, cheap, reasonably-priced 
toner.  Decent wireless access (2.4 GHz, presuming you don't mind a 
little extra around the office) and good faxing.

For inkjet, I like Canon.  Epson's good too but most have 
nonremoveable print heads, and once they jam, it's disposal 
time.  Canons can be cleaned.  And the ink's not too expensive.

While I like my wide-format (14" wide) HP wireless OfficeJet, which 
is wonderful for printing up maps and big network diagrams, I've had 
way too much trouble with their cheap ink jet All-in-1s.  Talk about 
cost-engineered to the max, with a paper path so flaky that it would 
have made Willis Carrier himself cringe.  We got a 1620 packaged with 
a laptop about six years ago; it *never* worked.

The new Dell's are proprietary and you have to get their toner.  That is not 
such an issue any longer staples and others has them, just stock up.

The larger HP all-in-one lasers are great.  The Lower end ones have an issue 
that they eat toner cartridges badly.  Get one that you can get a high yield 
cartridge.

Brothers are good as well.  I have had a few of the lower end units that have 
had print tray issues.

Re: [WISPA] OT: Printer recommendations

2010-11-23 Thread Jason Hensley 
I would personally run far away from Dell.  They used to be rebranded
Lexmarks, but were proprietary in their ink config.  Their cartridges and
toner seem to be more expensive than some of the others and like someone
else mentioned, hard to come by without ordering direct from Dell.  

We have had great luck over the years with HP, but I agree that some of the
later stuff has been a little shaky.  I'll add one more plus for Epson -
they seem to really be moving to the head of the pack with inkjet and
officejet level printers.  IMHO HP is still then best in the laser printers
though.

A old customer of mine had a HP LaserJet III, ya, ya know the thing that
weighed about 120 lbs, was huge, they had one for the entire office.
That's it.  They had regular maint of it every 3 months, when they
retired it, it was over 1.9 million pages on it!

We just got a new HP Color Laser/Fax/Scanner/Copier.  Think it was 500
bucks, but so far, works perfect.  Color is great, scanning is fast,
don't do much faxing, etc..Had a 2015d before that, and it worked
great!

Epson are very good quality, actually.  I just always hated waiting for

I was and still am a fan of Epson. We just got rid of a Photosmart 8550
we've had for years because the ink mechanism kept jamming and the paper
feed was skewing. We replaced it with a Workforce 630 All-in-one. I've
had Epson straight printers and have multiple Epson scanners here all
with good luck.

I see the same issues with the OfficeJets but only with the Inkjet models.
The laser models work flawlessly for me but they are only black and white,
at least the ones I have.  I only use the InkJet Hp for printing of maps and
it's usually a fight even with a static IP set in the thing.

As far as Dell, they used to be made by Lexmark but I've seen some that were
HP.  I'd actually steer clear of Dell and just go with whoever makes the
Dell model you're looking at due to their hard to find proprietary ink.  

I HAVE had some luck with the Kodak printers now that they seem to have
their firmware figured out.  The ink is way cheap as a bonus.  Not a heavy
duty machine but they seem to do the job.
