The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) just announced a recall of nearly 40,000 Lexmark printers, including models made for Dell and IBM, due to the hazard of short-circuiting and the potential to cause electrical shock hazard to consumers. The CPSC advises consumers to stop using these products immediately.
The recall includes the following model numbers: Lexmark E232, E232t, E330, E332n, E332tn; IBM Infoprint 1412, 1412n; Dell 1700 and 1700n. For more information, contact the CPSC Consumer Hotline at (800) 638-2772 or visit http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml04/04211.html. Read more about this recall and its impact in the October issue of Imaging Spectrum magazine.
