Yeah. I got a free HP Laserjet 4 a few years back. 4 pages per minute, smelly (ozone, I think), curled pages like crazy, was fucking huge, no duplex or networking. Actually, if I remember correctly it was parallel only, no USB. Completely repairable though.
Now, for my B/W printing (I also have a Brother color laser, and an Epson A3 inkjet because reasons) I have a tiny Brother laser, that prints something like 16 PPM, duplex, with dirt cheap compatible cartridges. Go ahead and get a LJ4.
I imagine that if you have some obscure specialized printer this may be a problem, though.
