I want something at PS1 that most people will benefit from and that will be operational when they are there. This solution is way better than what exists now and will keep running for years whether I am the host or not.

I want to make it clear this is a thing some people want, but we don't need it.

I'll assert ps1 needs to print some signs, like occupancy limits.  I am guessing at most a dozen pages a month.

"Useful service" isn't' a need, that is a want.  PS1 survives pretty well when there are no working printers.

Who has a problem that would be solved by spending $2000 printer?

It’s my view that printing can be a useful tool for members - and there is even opportunity to attempt to break even with free allotments and chargeable services. Either way, I see a net benefit.

We just installed that exact printer at work, we got it used for $1300.  I came with a service contract for $31/month for unlimited phone and onsite supppor.  We pay .0085 a page for B&W, and I think about .10 for Color.

Given how (other than the nicely working one in A&C) we tend to eat printers, and something that we can call anytime for them to fix may be the way to go.  We also have two other Xerox B&W versions of this we have had for 3 years now on the same sort of contract.  We have a lot of ham handed shop floor users here who beat on it pretty bad, but we just call for help when it messes up, which isn't that often.

I have this exact printer at work. It's great! Only gets critically jammed maybe once or twice a year but we print thousands of pages a month.

Q: Is there a plan to maintain the printer if David Ditzler is unable to do so?
