RE: booksaver copiers:

Beware the Oce Booksaver copier. It has one good point: it doesn't jam
often. The bad news is that it is almost impossible to place ones page
correctly on the glass and the quality of the copies is quite poor. It will
reduce a little, but will not enlarge. Because we make 3 or 4 bad copies for
every usable one, our staff has many episodes of "copier rage" (like "road
rage").

If you still want to experience this copier for yourself, (you really like
wasting time and destroying trees),try a distributor that handles Canon copiers.
