4.0 out of 5 stars Wireless rocks, but the set up can be frustrating., August 12, 2005

I was skeptical about paying extra for the wireless networking capabilities, but I have found this to be a real plus. My biggest complaint so far is the set up wizard is a bit frustrating, at least for me. I wanted to use this printer with my wireless DSL modem. The paper set up manual clearly indicates which installation mode I should choose (the infrastructure mode). So I go through the set-up wizard from the CD-ROM. I wanted to make sure the printer could utilize the security settings of the wireless network, just to make extra sure that nothing unsecured was going to happen. So I tried to set this up as "secured authentication." This cause a "severe error" in the set up. I tried this several times with the same results. Finally I decided to choose the "open authentication" which according to the wizard means unsecured. It turned out that choosing "open authentication" is exactly the right option, because on the next screen the wizard prompts you to add the security settings in order to avoid an unsecured network connection. And the printer installed flawlessly after that!

I love having the wireless networking capability. The printer no longer needs to take up valuable space on my desk.

The 1320nw also has built-in 2-sided printing (duplexing). This can be turned on for each print job as you need it. This is definitely cool.

My only other complaint is I would really have liked to purchase an additional 500-page capacity paper tray. This add-on is apparently not available for sale.

As is more commonplace these days, I work "remotely" for a corporation. This requires some heavy printing on occasion of simple documents, charts, graphs etc. Set-up was extremely easy, the quality of print is excellent with no blurring, and printing time is at a quite acceptable speed. I have had no technical issues with it and consider it a must have. When I have switched the printer from my den to bedroom it was simply a matter of unplugging and plugging it in..what could be easier. I would highly recommend this printer for the on-the-go remote worker or anyone else who enjoys the convenience of not only a fine printer but that of mobility. Bottomline, its a quality printer, that is quiet, speedy and mobile.

I bought this for small office printing, with occasional larger jobs. I wanted a lower cost-per-page than an inkjet. The most valuable features for me are the automatic double-sided printing and the wireless capability. I really had no problem with installation on my Mac. The text is very crisp, photos are pretty good as well, printing from color originals. It's fairly quiet in operation. My only wish is that they still made the supplementary paper tray. Sometimes the 250 sheets in the standard tray go pretty quickly. Overall I'm very pleased.
