Great description. Thanks Paxton. It's in the box but the top of the box
is gone. I didn't see the manuals and other stuff, they may be under the
foam padding but I expect they're gone too. I don't think it will work
with the 4051. It has a built in monitor and no external cabling. $215 for
a roll of paper!!! I couldn't afford to use it if I had it!
