Hi,

For a project im working on, I will require a black and white laser printer to be able to print onto multiple colour paper (White, Blue, Pink, Green, Yellow), and I am wondering if any mac compatable laser has ..5 A4 paper trays.

Good ideas usually are created by crazy people, go figure...

I dont know of a 5 tray printer offhand, Mac-compatible or not, but you could get a phaser 550 which is Mac-compatible and can be upgraded to three paper trays. It also prints color. I have one with an ethernet module and a paper-tray upgrade and it prints out pretty nice prints. You could just one w/o the extra trays and just print the color directly to the paper instead of using precolored paper.

You could create a LocalTalk SuperNetwork(TM) of older Apple Laserwriters.

I owned a Phaser for a short time. The nice thing about them (at least the ones which use transfer rolls, are there any others) is that you could print an entire page in colour, and it would cost the same as printing a single pixel in colour.
