*waves*A fellow traveller! We are a rare and exotic species.
I have an ImageWriter II, a StyleWriter II and a 2200, and then a selection of lasers: 2x Laserweriter Pro 630s, Laserwriter 4/600, LaserWriter 12/640, and 2 x LaserWriter 8500s, with an extra sheet feeder for A3 and the envelope tray -- just because an 8500 isn't big enough on its own. Ho ho.
Then I have a couple of Xerox solid ink printers, and a Laserjet 4m Plus with duplexer.
God, that sounds sad. Anyone want one of the spares?
I've come across a lot of collectors of Apple stuff but never another Apple collector interested in Apple printers. Which I always think is odd, because an Apple printer will make a retro setup complete IMO. I also collect Apple scanners. Printers and scanners just seem to be a relatively forgotten part of the Apple lineup.
I had to reduce my LaserWriter collection by selling my LW300 and (sadly) binning my LW12/640 and LW2, only keeping the LW8500 (being the last LW I think)?
I have an ImageWriter, ImageWriter LQ, both variations of the ImageWriter II's, StyleWriter, StyleWriter II, StyleWriter Pro as well as StyleWriter 1200, 1500, 2200, 2400, 2500 and 4500.
In the scanners I have the OneScanner, Color OneScanner and the 600/27.
Seems like a dizzying amount of re-capping above ^^^
The HP LaserJet 4 was an absolute workhorse. They went forever and ever, like a faithful tractor haha. The Xerox solid ink printers were unique. At work we had a couple of Xerox Phasers (?) and the print quality was excellent. They had a unique smell, probably highly carcinogenic!
