Many thanks for looking

PLEASE NOTE THAT SOME OF THESE ITEMS ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR USE WITH MICROSOFT VISTA OR MAC.

The HP Deskjet 9670 double sided A3 printer is a workhorse and far better build quality and cheaper to run than newer printers. It was not my main printer and used only for my Garden Design courses so is in excellent condition. A3 will take small to medium sized gardens at 1:50/1:100. I now use an A1 printer hence reason for sale. Please search HP website for information on drivers and Vista compatibility. It is likely that this can be used on Vista but is not guaranteed - I was in the same boat with my A1 printer and it worked fine on Vista with XP drivers. USB and parallel interfaces but can be shared as a network printer with an optional print server. About 3 years old. Very economical on ink (HP black:56, colour:57, photo:58) but it does come with some genuine HP unused spare cartridges (56 & 57?) to keep you going. No cables. Original packaging.

The Epson scanner is USB only. I much preferred the user interface and it gave better results than my all-in-one printer, but I no longer have the desk space. Vista drivers available. No cables. Unboxed.

Vectorworks 11 Landmark + Renderworks Student Edition. This is a dongled edition that can be installed on multiple machines, but due to the supplied hardware dongle that needs to be present in a spare USB socket, only one copy can be used at once. Unlike later student versions, this version neither prints with a watermark nor is time limited. Student versions are not licensed for commercial use. Free updates to 11.5 are available. The license can legally be transferred to the new owner. THIS WILL NOT WORK ON VISTA AND CANNOT BE UPGRADED TO LATER OR COMMERCIAL VERSIONS. But it is a great way to try CAD on less powerful PC's - minumum requirements are Windows 98, NT4, XP, pentium class processor, 256MB RAM, 110 MB harddisc space. I believe that this will also work on Mac OS 9.2/OS X 10.1 with PowerPC G3 or better. Original packaging.

Vectorworks training CD. A movie clip based training guide for Vectorworks 11. Original packaging.
