This bad boy is so fast,
it sports a fan! To keep temperatures down in hot environments, it creates
a nice safety margin too. The NIC card does have the ability to be externally
powered, but the model I had was powered internally via a switch on the card
itself. If this card ever dies, thumbscrews make for quick extraction and
replacement. The port labeled as "serial" is only for Epson digital
cameras.
Conclusion
For sometime, Epson printers
have been at the top of my list and after switching from HP brand units over
three years ago, I've never looked back. Admittedly, the pure black quality
is not quite HP level but the color blows everything else away. Combine
Epson's excellent customer service, reliability, top notch paper handling
and the result is a package that's almost impossible to beat. For small networks
and SOHO users, the 900N is the printer to purchase. And you can even lift
the cover to examine the output as it's happening. Try that with a Hewlett
Packard.
