I have to agree. I love HP printers. Most of their other hardware is crap, but printers they can do :) The problem I've had is order fulfillment. At least through the Computer Store. I know it's not their fault, it's HP's, but CStore's prices are usually the best so I continue to use them.

Cost might be a little higher, as Jack Kramer points out, but I think that they are great. I have a Laserjet P2015dn in offices where people has his/her own printer For mass consumption we have LaserJet 4350 (B&W) and LaserJet 4550 (color) Plotters DesignJet 5500 Support has also been above average. Kramer, Jack wrote: I actually prefer Brother laser printers - their consumable costs are much lower than HP units, as well as being cheaper up front. I like to order from either CDW-G or Newegg. ---- Jack Kramer Computer Systems Specialist University Relations, Michigan State University w: 517-884-1231 / c: 248-635-4955 From: Clifford Beckett <[log in to unmask]><mailto:[log in to unmask]> Reply-To: Clifford Beckett <[log in to unmask]><mailto:[log in to unmask]> Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2009 10:50:03 -0500 To: "[log in to unmask]"<mailto:[log in to unmask]> <[log in to unmask]><mailto:[log in to unmask]> Subject: [MSUNAG] Office Printer Recommendations Hello NAG, Our Lexmark Optra S1650 Laser printer just quit working. I has been a great printer, very durable and dependable. I would like your recommendations on a good replacement. We have a color HP 4550 for color printing that is slow but meets our needs. We use the B&W laser when we can because the toner costs are much lower. Cost and dependability are the primary factors. Is HP still the best out there? We require networking and at least a 500 sheet paper tray. Which HP model would you recommend? Which supplier would you recommend? Thanks Cliff -- Clifford L.
