The printer was very good. My only complaint was that it was sold with a toner, however, that toner was not OEM and when I started printing, it was horrible, to say the least. I had to buy a toner in order to ascertain the print quality. However, I must say it prints lovely with an original HP toner! So, bottom line, ask if you are getting a "real" toner and its condition if that is a feature you are considering. Toner on an old laser printer is a major consideration!
These printers are still out there in abundance. Mine is so much faster on the first page and subsequent pages than the HP5M that it replaced that it still surprises me. It works fine for Win, Mac and Linux as both a server-printer and a direct TCP/IP printer. It also has internal duplexing, which helps save on paper costs. With a little careful auction shopping you can get one of these with a low page count for around $125 including shipping. It has about the same footprint as the HP5M, but weighs a lot less. It is also much smarter about picking up manual feeds of card stock or envelopes. I'm using this in a mixed-computer environment at a home office and am very pleased with the output quality and ease of setting it up. You can download updaters, manuals and web config tools from HP for free. I've only has this one for about three months, but am very impressed so far.Read full review
I have purchased three of these printers on Ebay for my business and home. All were approximately four years old. They had between 500 and 18,000 pages printed. The reason for the flood of these printers on the market at inexpensive prices is that many are coming off corporate leases. The printers originally cost over $1000. According to the printer repair company that services my other HP printers including an HP Laserjet 4 purchased in 1991, these printers should work flawlessly for up to 75,000 pages. At that stage, you will need about $100 repair for replacement of rollers and seperator pad. Then you should be good to go until about 200,000 pages where major servicing may be required. If you want a current model HP laserjet printer that is networkable and does two-sided printing you will spend approximately $500 and according to my repair company its not as well made. Good Luck.Read full review
This printer had only 8800 copies and has operated flawlessly for me. It has excellent quality and provides two-sided copies with great speed. Great value.
Good people to work with. Do not bother to try to repair one of these in the field. These are very well done units!
