Homebrew PCBs

Thanks for that news Stefan.  Anybody using a Lexmark X215 and can report
results?  I have not long installed one here, now that I have retired.  I
expect that it will work well, as I expect that any of the contemporary
Lexmark lasers will most likely share common technology.

By the way, I visited Lexmark's headquarters in Lexington, Kentucky back in
July and have very good contacts with Lexmark here in Australia.  I suspect
that I should be able to source any technical advice we might require.

Cheers

Bill
