| I just moved into a new office. We are in need of a color laser printer that is networked and has a tray for both 8.5x11 and 11x17 size paper. There will only be three folks printing to this from time to time. It would not be the primary output device. I have had the color HP's but what about the others like XEROX? Any recommendations? Thanks. |

I have a HP laserject 2605dn and it has been great.
It's networked and works great.
IMO, HP is best for laser printers. |

I referring to their laser printers only. I like the reliably (problem free experience that I have with them), lower cost for toners.
For example, my old HP laserjet 5p still works fine like new. I had it since '87 and I print almost everyday.
HP generic toners are cheaper and if you buy original HP toners, you can resell the empty toners when used up.
I also have a Brother multi-function printer but it flaked on me one time but it's was acceptable but it did cost lots of $$$ and toner are really expensive.
For inkjet printers, I recommend Canon one. I have a i950 for photos and it has separate colors cartridges.
I don't recommend HP printers for inkjet. I had one that died within 1 year. The printheads for the HPs are expensive. |

| Thanks Netman, I will have our IT staff order the HP color laserjet you recommend. Appreciate the input on ink jet technology too. Make it a Good Week. |

Don't order so quickly, The 2605 does not print on 11x17. I would definitely buy HP but if you need to print on 11x17 paper that particular model does not do it.
