Good Printer

This printer replaced a Brother HL2040. The toner gives far fewer prints, however there's no drum unit to replace. The brother would deliver 2,000 prints on a $50 toner while the HP delivers 1,500 prints on a $55 toner. Take the cost of a drum and 5 cartridges every 10,000 prints on the Brother and the price is about the same. HP costs about 3.6 cents per page to operate and the Brother costs 3.5 cents based on my experience. The HP jams less and is much more crisp and clear. Go with the HP every time.

For those who complain about 1,500 pages being a small load or about a $100 printer running slower than a $1,000 printer, I suggest working with more printers on the low end before making your comparisons. This is a good unit. I will be buying more for the office. Each workstation here prints about 10,000 pages per year.

P Laserjet P1006 is not as convenient as HP Laserjet 6L

This printer starts fast and print fast with high resolution. However, it is not convenient when printing envelope using, for example Word, compared with my former HP Laserjet 6L. For the 6L, when print-envelope job is sent, the printer waits for me to put in an envelope, and the printing will start only when I push the "start button". There is no start button in the P1006, and I need to go to printer setup window to setup envelope printing and place an envelope in the tray before the print-evelope job is sent. After printing the envelope, I need to reset the print for ordinary printing. This is very inconvenient. Also for the 6L, I can let the envelope bend through about only 130 deg from input to output and the envelope comes out nearly unbent. With the P1006, everything has to bend 360 deg from input to output. The envelope after bending such large angle need to be flattened after printing. Also the toner is much more expensive than that for the 6L. Although they cost roughly the same, that for the 6L can print 2500 pages, but that for the P1006 is much smaller and can print only 1500 pages. To me, the only good point for the P1006 is its fast printing rate and low price of $90 at Amazon.com. Besides that everything is not as good as the 6L. It is too bad that the fuse roller of my 6L is broken and it cost $70 to $100 or more to repair.
