Laserjet P3005d Toner Cartridges

Excellent valueThis printer warms up more slowly than my old Laserjet 5000 but, having warmed up, prints more than twice as fast--and much, much faster when duplexing. The duplexing technology is far superior to the old added-tray system, which jammed too often (after several thousand copies, I've had no jams in the P3005d duplexer). The image quality is excellent (better for graphics than my $9,000. Toshiba), and it has various fuser settings for different kinds of media. Printing labels and index are no problem. About the only criticisms I have are: the tendency of the copies to curl, regardless of the paper used (but this is a problem common to all laser printers I have used); the menu display is a bit cumbersome and hard to read in some lighting conditions--I wish they would use dedicated buttons and a larger display window for setting such functions as print density. The menu settings for printing custom-size sheets in the proper orientation are tricky and confusing.
Expensive compared, but excellentA little more expensive than some... but you can't be more HP compatible than an HP. Feeding is good, setup went smooth.
