I seen them from 180 to 400. I would assume one one who already has one
at work would use it as a parts machine as it was very popular model.

The rollers are still in excellent condition and the fuser is the only
thing needing replacing and that is done with a couple of screws
according to all the videos and pictures tutorials on the maintance kit.

Also it is easy to do and only needs to be done by an authorized tech
to keep warranty on the unit and it way past it warranty period. But
I figured that some one out there would simply use it for something. as
there are plenty of useable parts. or at the very list the 3rd tray and
the jet direct card. Mother boad...
