"Five stars for a great printer"

After reading several online reviews, I chose to get the 5250. I have been more than pleased. The print quality is every bit equal to the HP Laser Jet units used at my job. The graphics look great, every font is rendered clearly and this beast is lightning fast.
A major selling point was the price. For $279 I got a high speed laser with networking. I attached it to a wireless switch and it is now wireless for everyone in my home to use.
Remote administration is easy. Just dial a web browser into the printer's address and you can see every possible setting and even a log of every error and every sheet printed.
The front opens to reveal an alternate paper feeder, for doing duplex, envelope, or alternate size feeding. It automatically detects when paper is there and holds a couple dozen sheets or so.
This unit easily competes with $600 units and performs just as well. I've been to a number of offices and noticed them using the same printer. My children noticed one at the doctor's office recently. You won't go wrong with this printer if you need networking.

Printers worked as advertised straight out of the box. Quiet, quick, work horse type of printer. Couldn't be any happier.

Great printer and I have owned a lot of versions, since the very first HP laser Printer over 20 years ago.
Printed 17000 pages and the Duplex broke and they (the Ext. Warranty Guys) could not fix, so they sent me a Gift Card for $200 Dls-Awesome.
Very Fast printer and reliable. I print at least 1000 pages a week (a researcher).
The only negative I ever found in this printer, is that it curls the paper.
Go buy it or its Wireless brother, the 5370DW-you can't go wrong.
"Watch the Carbon particles!"

I purchased this machine to avoid having to GPS a working copiers at school. Now I take care of all my own printing with a click. The best features, it's wireless, prints double sides, works fast, and it has a low printing cost. The disadvantages: if you have any allergiesto dust and particulate matter using this printer too much will release fine carbon particles into the air and you end up with this "printing machine odor" Open the windows guys, because this is becoming a health problem. I use a fan to vent out the heated carbon toner particles to avoid this problem. (Just read the MSDS sheet on this and you will understand what I am talking about). Otherwise, a hardy machine, works fast, low costs (except for the drum) and just want a teacher needs at home.
"High quality low cost laser printer"

My company has two of these printers for over a year, both with the second paper tray. They replaced more expensive HP Laserjets. They work very well and almost never jam. The duplex capability is an added bonus. The only problem it has is with standard envelopes. It tends to wrinkle them as they pass through the printer. We have tried different methods to correct this, but nothing has worked. There is no straight path through the printer. This problem is minor and does not matter by the time the envelope finds it's way through the mail.
