Free: Printer HP Deskjet 3050A All in one printer- scanner- copier (Hillsborough S6) Gifted This printer works. But read the details below. And note, I'm most likely to give the printer to someone who say why they want it! (I often ignore replies that just say: 'Is it available' or 'Can I have it'.) I'm not an expert on IT, but here's what I can tell you. - It's an All in one printer scanner copier - purchased in 2018. Still working - been very happy with it. - It has a sheet feeder - which takes approx 20 sheets of A4 (or other sized ) paper (or labels or card). - According to the original blurb it prints 20 pages per minute in black/white or 16 if using colour. - Printer has been well used for the last 8 years for all sort of printing /scanning / copying tasks, without any significant problem. It happily prints in black/white or colour on to standard paper / photo quality paper / A4 sheets of labels / light weight card etc. (It CAN'T handle really thick/heavy card, but up to 180gsm has been fine). I've printed occasionally onto envelopes, or A5 card too. One of the hinges on the lid that covers the scan /copier glass has broken, so you need to be gentle when lifting the lid for copying or scanning. - It takes HP301 cartridges. In the printer at the moment are 2 part used cartridges (1 black / 1 tricolour). They were installed in March/May this year. With my regular usage, a cartridge lasts about 3 months. (but I've no idea how many pages I print a month, sorry!) - The power cable is included of course! . - The printer should work 'wirelessly' - ie you shouldn't need to plug it into a laptop/computer. For me it worked 'wirelessly' for the first few years. But after that I changed my WiFi router. After that I couldn't get the printer to link to my network. So I gave up, and bought a cable to link the printer to my laptop via USB . That solved the problem for me. I'll include that cable. You may be able to get it to work wirelessly, if you are a bit more technical than me! Dimensions: H15.6 x W 42.7 x D30.6 cm. It weighs about 3.5kg. Hope this might be useful for someone? Collection would be from Sheffield S6 Hillsborough area, near to Morrisons / Hillsborough Tram stop. Ideally sometime during this week. I can be fairly flexible about times / days. And just to remind you, I'm most likely to give the printer to someone who says why they want it! (because I often end up with too many rather vague 'Is it available' or 'Can I have it' messages.)

Free: Oven trays / dishes - large - aluminium (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Some Aluminium oven pans of various sizes. I've included a 30cm / 12 inch ruler on some of the photos to give an idea of size.

Depth = approx 8 cm / 3 inch b) 2 baking trays : or you can use these as the lid for pan (a) c) Another 'deep' pan, slightly bigger than (a) d) a slightly bigger baking gray e) a pan lid about 30cm / 12 inch diameter. I'm more likely to give them to someone who tells me why they'd like them. (ie I may not reply if you just say "can i have them" or "Are they available" ) . Hope someone could make use of them. Collection will be from Sheffield, S6 Hillsborough area - near to Morrisons / Wetherspoons / Bus Interchange.

Free: Porcelaine pens - for painting on ceramics (Hillsborough S6) Gifted 15 Porcelaine pens (4 of them are metallic), and some textile markers. These were found in a cupboard I was clearing out. They work, but I'm not very creative, so I've not used them. And apart from the info below, I don't know much more about them!! The pens can be used to paint/draw on ceramics. And you can then bake the item in the oven to "set" the colour. There are about 15 porcelain pens, and 6 textile markers. There were seven 6 in/15 cm white tiles with them, and you are welcome to those if you want something to try them out on! Hope someone can use them.

Free: Car Mats for Skoda Fabia 2007-2014 (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Genuine Skoda mats - Carpet style. The car had only done low mileage. Front mats are in good condition (better than they appear in the photo). And the back mats are like new. And the driver was a non-smoker, who didn't have dogs! If you can use them, let me know. They fit the 2007-2014 model (might fit another car, I don't know). It's difficult to know who's really interested. I tend to pick a Freegler who tells me why they want the item (or in some other way gives me a clear idea they are genuine! ). Or to put it another way: I'm unlikely to reply to those who simply say : "is this available". Thanks for reading. Collection would be from Sheffield S: Hillsborough/Walkley area (near Morrisons and Bus interchange)

Free: 8 hard backed envelopes - used ! (mostly C5 size) (Hillsborough S6) Gifted Can anyone make use of these hard-backed envelopes? 1 of them is C4/A4 size, the rest are C5/A5 size. All of them are recycled (ie I've received items in them), so may have part of a label on the front. I've kept them for a while, but really have no use for them. It seems a shame to put them in the blue bin. If you'd like them let me know. Collection will be from S6 Hillsborough: near to Morrisons and the bus interchange on Langsett Road.

Kitchen roll-top bin ( 75cm tall, 35cm wide, 33 cm deep) It's good quality (Addis, I think), but had it some years , so there are a few scuffs on it. And a small crack at one corner. see photos.
