my boss has the biggest, ugliest old printer. it's half the size of one of those big office printers, only it's supposed to be a "goes in the corner of your desk" printers.
it has never broken once.
it has never had any network problems.
when he retired and the firm closed, and we all had a free for all looting the company, if we were the type of people to come to blows over things we would have come to blows over that printer. we settled it over a game of "i'm your boss, i get to take my printer home. go steal a box of pens and one of the other printers"
I know the sort of beast you mean. Solid enough that you could drive a car over it, and can probably be serviced with just a hammer and a wrench. It was undoubtedly an excellent piece of kit, and I envy your old boss!
you'd need one hell of a ramp and the car would take more damage than the printer, yeah. one of those. gets fifteen pages to the gallon
