WEll DONE!I wanted a printer to replace an ageing Laser printer [300dpi, a dinosaur, yes I know.] and I have always bought HP. My wife suggested that I get an automatic double side printer , she had a HP at work that was very good and the double side printing was a godsend. Automatic Double sided printing? Definitely a MUST have. No more manual feeds and Ooops.. wrong side....Networked to boot!...what a bonus since I have a network at home.Egad! No reviews posted...ok..time to take the plunge and buy one.......and I have NOT regretted it! The printer is FAST, quiet! And the out put is superb! Who cares how powerful your computer is? At the end of the day, you are only as good as the printout and this is EXCELLENT! 1200 dpi every time!The on board 48MB is fantastic. Set up was a breeze. Set the printer in your software program such as word to double side printing and voila! Clean, crisp `automatic duplexing' HP calls it. I say AT LAST!The controls are simple and the display is nice and bright. The printer is always on but no matter, it automatically goes to SLEEP after a period of non-use and instantly `wakes up' when you send a file to print, be it from the scanner, word or other program. In sleep mode, the display goes of leaving a small green light on.It has been 5 months and it has worked beautifully. One can even get a print out of how many copies have been jammed [ so far NONE], printed, single or double sided, type of media used [ size and type of paper, envelope etc] this is especially great for an office to keep track of unauthorized usage of the system]The finish, quality and function of the printer are first class, superb! Buy it, you will well pleased!
