5.0 out of 5 stars Great accessory, May 3, 2007

By	Yoshiro Aoki (Vancouver, BC / Osaka-Kobe, JP) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great accessory for an HP printer. Just this morning I printed a 28-page KB article on my now equipped `HP Officejet 7210 All-in-One'...so compact! And when I staple & open it up I get to see 2 printed pages instead of one, a very handy feature when working & reading in close quarters (airplanes, subways, etc).

Where does it fit on to your printer? Have a look around the back side of your HP and you will find a big plastic cover there. That cover comes off and this most nifty device inserts with a click, with all but 2 inches (5 cm) installing inside the printer for a secure, built-in look. Hang on to that cover, though, as it allows the printer to print without the duplexer if for some reason you need to.

Duplex (two-sided) printing is a little slower than printing single sided as the printer briefly pauses a few seconds to allow the ink to dry between sides, but well worth the convenience of the double-sided print, at least for me. And of course installing the device does not remove the option to print single sided as before.

It's always a good idea to double check compatibility of your HP printer with any accessory by visiting HP's web site, where a quick search for `duplexer' in `Home and Home Office' reveals several offerings, along with a support number for further questions. Click `Accessories' in the search result to nail down these specific devices and their compatibility lists.

This device is well worth the added capability to most any printer installation. Truly plug & play. Five stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars No dulication for this duplexer, January 30, 2005

By	I.C. Ewe "Stan the Man" (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews

If you want to save paper or not have bulky text projects, this duplexer is for you.It automatically prints on both sides
of your paper once you set it. But beware where you buy it from. Amazon might be somewhat higher in price, but at least they ship it to you in a very reasonable time. Whereas Buy.com will take your order and ship it to you (with a phony tracking number) whenever they want (2-3 weeks).
