Yeah, I have a 20yo laser printer that's still going strong, although the network card crapped out.

Yeah laser units are pretty much indestructible in decent conditions. Can yours be connected by USB or parallel instead?

Yeah, the USB cable still works. I could set up a print server, but it's pretty unnecessary for the 3-4 times a year I print something.
