Comments

A real "winprinter" as the LBP-660, LBP-600, and LBP-460.

Works with the free driver "lbp800" which is based on reverse-engineering the undocumented proprietary protocol. The driver works only for a parallel port connection, not for USB.

Note that the proprietary parallel port data transfer protocol is non-standard and not very reliable. So use a cable as short as possible to use this printer. The parallel port must be set to bi-directional in the BIOS (should be already set on modern PCs).

If there is a PCL emulation, it is done by the Windows driver.

Consumables/Refills: EP22 cartridge / 2500 pages per cartridge.(A4letter @ 5%)
