Any network printer without some sort of display royally sucks. You cannot easily diagnose communication errors with a couple blinking lights.
Much easier to troubleshoot a complex device if it can actually tell you something. Sometimes trying to coax it to communicate using button gymnastics doesn't work.
Other than that, yeah, HP laserjets are pretty rad.
- AjithAntony 13y agoI disagree. Much like my very complex home routers, this printer has an awesome Web UI. Unlike my routers, you can hold the button down and it prints a complete status report, including the IP config.
- LarryMade2 13y agoAll I can say is sometimes the printer may not provide enough information via status pages. Had it happen to me where one was was in a bad state and didn't play well with others. Models that you can configure via on-printer displays are way faster to setup and easier to deal with technicalities in the long run.
