4.0 out of 5 stars Versitile, good choice, not best for home use., December 11, 2006

This review is from: Hewlett Packard LaserJet 5000N Laser Printer (Office Product)

This printer has excellent quality, features and can do just about any task you send it. The stackable trays are great for different types of jobs. I have had the printer for 3 years and have not had to change the toner yet. I do use it for home business only, this printer is pretty heavy and takes up a lot of space for home use.

I trust HP quality and know this printer will outlive many similar models.

The printer driver settings are easy to use, but the menu options on the printer itself are hard to navigate and save.

If you do consider this printer, buy additional memory for it, because the 8MB internal memory is not enough for many jobs, and is quite slow. 64MB will be plenty for about 40 bucks more.

Best black and white laserprinter I ever owned. I bought it new. It still works. I bought it through Amazon.com for a great price at the time: $ 1859. It is 10 yrs old and still ticking!
