4 out of 5 stars ok, the usb port issue   September 30, 2005
Y. Kwon
79 out of 82 found this review helpful

The Good:
- super fast printing
- almost perfect print output (super dark black & wide range of greys)
- compact size, won't overwhelm your desk
- connects by USB port

The Bad:
- noisy when printing (whirring motor)
- manual feed holds only a few sheets or a couple of envelopes
- usb port issues (this can be fixed, see below)
- connects by USB port and nothing else

This laser printer is the best value for its performance and output. I had a LaserJet 6P which is a dinosaur now, still works perfect but doesn't understand PostScript3. I got tired of printing Japanese text by first having to make a pdf and then print. Now I can print directly to the printer. The text is near perfect on a scale of 1-5, i'd say 4.5. Unless you are going to buy a $600 Ricoh, you should really consider this printer solely based on its speed and text output. Even compared to other $300 models, this printer can hold its own and may even be better in some cases. It is kind of noisy when it prints- a deep whirring noise - it's bearable but should be mentioned. The manual feed can only hold a thin amount which could be a problem for some people who are going to be printing onto a lot of envelopes. And unfortunately you can't load envelopes into the main compartment. Also the actual printing of envelopes can be annoying, you have to press the button on the printer before it prints any envelopes and you have to do it for each single one - there might be a way around this but I haven't figured it out yet.

The USB issue:
yes, HP tech support can be frustrating as with any company. But my experience wasn't as horrible as others here have had. I received two follow up phone calls, even one from an HP technical engineer about this usb issue::

through trial & error, here is what I did to make it work:
If you are having problems connecting the USB printer to your computer, i.e. WinXP won't recognize the printer, you need to disable the USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller. For some reason, on some computers running WinXP, the USB printer port is recognized as an "Unknown Device." It affects any USB port, doesn't matter if it's USB 2.0 w/Firewire or an older port. It can be fixed easily with a little tweak. I'm sure a lot of people have returned the printer b/c they thought they couldn't print or it was incompatible. Not everything works perfectly straight out of the box, what fun would that be?...

You may also have the same problem if you plan to connect the printer to a router or print server. I have a wireless Linksys Print Server and it does not recognize the USB printer. I have asked Linksys to update their Firmware. When it will happen? who knows.

Keep in mind this is a brand new model for HP and issues will arise they may not have the needed tech support yet. Notwithstanding, for this price and excellent output, I think it's worth it.



1 out of 5 stars Died out of the box   September 15, 2005

After receiving the printer I followed all the directions for set up, hit the switch and watched the first page get half way through when it died. No useful information comes with the product to help so I had to go to the HP web site. Their on line diagnostic system polled the printer and then looped back to the start page half a dozen times and never gave any info. Called the listed number only to get recording stating the office hours had just ended for the day... 24/7 tech support?
The next day I called the "HP invent" number and yep, you guessed it, hello Bombay! After ten minutes of "is it pluged in?" and "did you put paper in the printer?" questions I was told it must be broken and that they would be happy to send me a reconditioned unit in a week or so. My other option was to take it to a local HP repair center which I did. After three days of no action and several follow up phone calls I was told it was broken and that it would have to go back to HP as there were too many things that were not working and that the local repair center would not be sent the parts by HP because of the type of problems. But not to worry, I would probably receive a nice refurbished unit in about 5 to 7 days even though I did pay full price for a new one. Let the buyer beware, no help from HP when you really need it!
If I ever get the printer back and working I'll let you know how it works.



5 out of 5 stars Another Great HP Printer   October 25, 2005

I see there are some conflicting reviews about this printer, but I guess as always it depends on who is using the printer and what they're using it for. I use this printer in my home office for personal and very light business use, meaning I don't print more than about 10 or 15 pages per day. In this capacity, I've been thrilled with it so far.

The set-up was so easy---about five minutes to put everything together, Windows XP recognized it right away and the software only took seconds to install. I've had no problems with it now after using it daily for nearly three weeks. To me, it's fast, easy and high-quality, just like I would expect from HP.

I have had my 1022 for about 9 months now, and have yet to have any sort of problems and I'll never buy another inkjet. It prints quickly, and while it lacks a duplex unit, the driver does support a sort of make-shift duplex printing. Select double sided printing, and print. It prints one side of all pages, then you can put the stack back in the printer without changing the orientation and hit one button on the printer to print the opposite sides. No need to remember how to manually print alternate pages in reverse order and so forth...saves me so much ink and paper. (This works on my mac. I assume it also works on windoze.)

Also, I would like to point out I have printed over a ream of paper and haven't needed a new cartidge and have no signs of ink shortage.



1 out of 5 stars I would not buy Hp printers anymore!   January 5, 2006

I could not install this printer because of a false jammed paper signal. Turns out the factory turns the jammed paper recovery off to increase printer speed. What a stupid idea. Accordingly, I could not recover from this false signal; had to return printer. Also, searching on the web I discovered that many people had the same problem with other than the 1022 HP model. In addition, was unable to get help from HP. Also, software from printer did not play well with my XP system, had warning that printer software was not compatible with XP.
