>Ugh. Something like the "thought process" that went into WinModems? What does putting the responsibility for handling the printer back on Win2K do for you? It's a big step backwards, for very little savings looking at it from a cost standpoint at least...

Well it's one of those multi-function things. The fax and scan manager are already on the local machine, so I guess it makes sense to have everything there. It's really a nice printer, but come OS upgrade time this becomes a problem I guess.
