Free Printer

If anyone wants a free printer, you can have mine. I haven't used it in 2 years. If you pay for shipping, I'll send it. It needs new ink and probably needs to be cleaned.

It's an HP 697C. All cables included.

I just wanted to ask here before I put it on the curb with a "Free" sign on it.

(Cleaning house tonight, and just fed up with looking at it sitting there).

Why don't you... sell it? You can probably get at least $20.

I may be interested... My Lexmark has crappy print support (none) for any non-windows or mac OS, so I need one that will run on *nix...

What do you think shipping would be? Vancouver BC... slowest possible ground would be fine - UPS maybe?

Why don't you... sell it? You can probably get at least $20.

Because I value my personal time. It's not worth $20 to me to spend the time trying to post it places where I can sell it.

Marble, I did a quick thing on UPS, and said anywhere from $20 to $30, depending on the exact dimensions of the box ($20 if I can fit it in a 16" x 16" x 12" box, $30 if I can fit it in a 24" x 24" x 12" box.)

EDIT: I put the dimensions of the printer into the form (rounded up to compensate for packing peanuts and stuff, and it came back as $20.

EDIT #2: Linux drivers: http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-DeskJet_697C

Yeah HP is pretty well supported. That is why I am interested =)

If it's a go pm me and I can paypal you $20 or mail you a check (US bank).... if it ends up being more I can send you the difference.

Now THIS is why I like you guys!

Speaking of free printers, If anyone wants a free mail bomb, you can have mine. I haven't used it yet. If you pay for shipping and give me your address, I'll send it to you. ;)

Grade A comedy right there, folks.

Looks like marble got it. I wonder how much shipping would be if its shipped to Singapore, cause I'm interested also.
