Remember, I said most Laptops/Pc and Digital Cameras, I didn't say small electronics :rolleyes:

Flying Machine a real 750w step-down transformer will cost you around 25 u$s, 45 for 1000w. Check on MercadoLibre.com.ar and look for "transformador PS3", must be at least 750w

Technical Details for HL-2140

# Power source: AC 120 V, 50/60 Hz
# Energy Star compliant: Yes
# Power consumption: 5 W (sleep), 80 W (standby), 460 W (peak)

I thought that I would give back a little here. Thanks to all that have replied and I forgot to post an update. I did bring down the HL-2140 and it arrived at EZE in good shape and came out quickly with a UA Priorty Tag. I filled out my declaration form, had my receipt handy, and was waiting for the Customs Blue Coats to interogate me. Well, they were all standing around doing nothing but chatting with each other, I walked passed them looking at them hoping they would wave me down, no luck, no X ray, no nothing.. The transfromadora information that fedechat provided from mercardo libre was spot on. Sent the link to my hotel owner in BsAs and he got it for me for 90 ARG ( very nice of him to do so.. ). 750 W and it worked like a charm.. No issues and I will bring down a refilled lazer cartridge that costs about $25 USD next time I am down. These are good for 2000 pages or more. Way to go FT'ers and thanks for all of your tips
