I've owned one printer in my life, an HP4M I bought slightly used about 1994... actually a few years ago I found an HP4m+ on the sidewalk and got it working OK, bought very cheap RAM(compared to MSRP back in 1994 or so), so it's maxed out) so I'm a bit upgraded. However, I do wish it duplexed. There is a duplexing module for it but it's expensive (even used) and bulky. I have my printer in tight quarters.
I'm thinking this: printers have come way down in price from the ~$1600 I paid for my HP. The features I see advertized make my HPs seem lame, however it must be admitted, I think, that the HP4M and HP4M+ print very beautifully, sharp crisp text. To me, that's requirement number one.
I'm thinking maybe I can acquire a cheap duplexing printer for those frequent jobs where I print a manual. For instance I'm right now trying to print the manual for my Canon ELPH 100HS, 212 pages, and manually feeding 1/2 the pages and having to deal with the intricacies of making sure the pages are in order and correct is just such a fuss. Thanks for any input/ideas/suggestions... etc.!
