I've had an excellent HP m551DN network and Duplex postfix color laserjet printer. It really died and needed servicing but servicing seemed to cost more money than replacement, assuming I could even get a call to the office.
So I replaced it with a refurbished model from B&H Photo - the replacment being an m554DN. It sat for a couple of months, still boxed, in my office floor because it is just too heavy for me to recycle the old printer and set up the new one. I am really feeling old at this point.
Unfortunately. the new refurnished one is not working. It has an error with the fuser 50.4F00 which implies some electrical problem. The paper tray is not lifting either. It cost me over $400 and at this point it seems worthless.
I need a replacement printer, and you would think after almost 10 years that the technology might advance, but it doesn't seem to have. I need a color laser printer (just to print) and network ready (not wifi - and not depenent on cellphoes - I don't even OWN a cellphone). And I am struggling with a reasonable alternative. And these new HPs a locked into the cartilages. So I am very frustrated with the situation. They are twisting my arm so badly to force shit on my that I don't want that my arm is coming off at the shoulder.
I am fielding suggestions. -- So many immigrant groups have swept through our town that Brooklyn, like Atlantis, reaches mythological proportions in the mind of the world - RI Safir 1998 http://www.mrbrklyn.com
