Old Lasers...
It's not that long ago that I finally retired a huge A3 colour HP LaserJet 5500. I'd been at the company 10 years or so and it was considered "old" when I joined. We only got rid because I could buy a decent modern MFD for less than the cost of the service parts it needed.
Best small HP lasers, IMHO, were the LaserJet 4L, it had a straight through paper path from the manual feed that would print on quite thick card, handy when the company manglement forgot to order any personalised C*******s cards, just got a batch of blanks and ran them through. We also did the tech details on a brochure for a product under development (the specs changed every other week). We simply had the printers do the front side in full colour and printed the backs a few at a time. That lasted until a senior manager decided it was a waste of time and money and ordered 1,000 fully printed brochures, 990 or so of which were out of date and binned a month later.
