[tor.general] defunct SX-engine laser printers wanted

Anyone who is considering throwing out a laser printer with a Canon SX
print engine -- that is, LaserJet 2, LaserWriter 2, QMS PS810, etc -- please
consider throwing it in our direction. :-)  Doesn't have to be working or
in terribly good condition; we're interested in it not as a working printer,
but as a source of parts.  We've just discovered that HP's parts policy
seems to have changed between the old LJ and the LJ2, with a lot of LJ2
spares available only as complete subassemblies.  This is a considerable
nuisance; we maintain our own printers, but don't want to tie up a lot
of money in parts inventory.
