    Cool Black Laser Printers - Are They Made?

    I want to buy a laser printer, but I want it to be black (to match my desk and comp). Does anybody make a black laser printer? I don't need color printing, just b/w...

    My main rig (nice & silent):

    | SOYO SY-TISU | PIII-S 1.4GHz @ 1.225V with SLK-800(A) | 2 x 256MB Mushkin High Performance REV 3+ | Albatron Ti4600V with Zalman ZM80A-HP | Terratec DMX 6fire LT | Hauppauge WinTV-Theater | Intel Pro/100 VE | SOYO VT6202 | Hitachi Travelstar 5K80 40GB in Molex SilentDrive Enclosure | Samsung SM-348B | Sunbeam Rheobus | SilentMaxx ProSilence PCS-350 | Creative MegaWorks THX® 2.1 250D | Antec SX1030B | SMC 7008BR Barricade | Lexmark E323n | IBM P96 19" FD Trinitron | Win2K Pro SP4 |

    They seem a bit expensive.. or maybe that's just cuz the inkjets I use have more expensive cartridges than the actual print device :P Maybe go to epinions.com and look at the pictures of whatever brand you like. Or get some paint and DIY? It'd be the first printer mod I'd heard of

    Lexmark has a couple of mono laser printer models in black starting at ~$300 list price for a 1200 dpi and up to 20ppm.

    *edit* Krylon has some "color" products for laser printer cases, too.

    Best bet is not to worry about color and buy for performance. You can always paint it to suit your other equipment.
    Athlon 64 3700+
    2GB Micron DDR400
    Shuttle ST20G5 SFF
    ATI X800XL 256mb
    Seagate 160GB
    Generic 8x4x8x DVD+-RW
    Dell 17" Trinitron (just bought a 2005fpw!!)

    And my soon to be 1.5TB server
