I love my HP laser printer. (It's okay for a human to 'love' an object, right?) I started with a dot-matrix hand-me-down. That, along with the 80-88 dinosaur of a computer (which only had an orange screen and word processing capabilities, by the way), went bye-bye soon after I began getting acclimated to using a computer. My aunt sent me a used lap top when she and her business upgraded their computers. Along with the used laptop she sent me a brand new Canon LPB printer, which was, to be fair, very good. But when that got overused and under-fed, so to speak, after a stint without a printer, my boyfriend bought me an HP laser printer. This thing has so many capabilities, so many whistles and bells and arms and brain functions that it can almost help me do the dishes or go to the bathroom for me. My version of the HP laser printer, the hp psc 2410xi photosmart, first of all, prints. It prints double-sided text documents, photos, greeting and business cards, you name it. It can be networked to fax and receive faxes. It can photocopy! Further, it is easy to set up. I'm not completely ignorant about technology, but I do need clear, correct instructions in my language. The HP laser printer has them, along with a driver disk that once inserted walks the user through the process of configuring (a process on the oldest computers had to be done by typing in, one at a time, very baffling - for amateurs--commands). My HP comes with a book. A BOOK - of instructions, options, and suggestions. But the amount of paperwork included is not daunting or over the head of the user. The language is clear, grammatically correct (for the residual English teacher mentality), and broken into manageable steps/chunks that are easy to follow. The thing is also to some degree intuitive, telling the user when the ink is low or when a command has to be made, for example. I know that many printers rival the HP; but not all of them have all of the same features or perform to such optimum standards. Specifically, few laser printers are as easy to operate as the HP model I have. You might know the old saying that holds that if you put a room full of monkeys into a room full of typewriters, they will eventually knock out a volume of Shakespeare. Whether or not that is true, I would wager you could put a primate at a Hewlett Packard and he or she would be able to work it. The animal might even want to take it for his or her own.
