Annamarie: I have the same printer at home (with the network card) and it¹s been incredibly reliable. However, given it¹s age, I¹m expecting it to go at some point soon. I¹m sure it¹s nowhere near cost effective to fix it, especially if it¹s the drum. The cost of laser printers is a fraction of what it was when you bought the 2100. Check it outyou¹ll probably be pleasantly surprised and you¹ll have a new printer to boot.
