There is no documentation about how to have the printer move from one

canceled.

So far as I'm concerned, the last decent laser printers to come out of
HP were the 2000 series. And I will keep having my 2100M fixed, as
needed, for as long as consumables remain available.

And at one point, for less than 24 hours (counting from when I took
delivery to when I returned it for a refund), I was the owner of a Xerox
color laser that turned out to be a total bust: it was noisy, it was
overpriced, it was bulky, and it claimed to be a Postscript machine, but
when I fed it an actual Postscript data stream, it curled up its toes
and said, "hellllppppp meeeeeeeeeeee!"
