Comments about HP / Hewlett Packard HP Deskjet 3050A e-All-In-One Printer:
I wouldn't have expected automatic duplexing, but at least the knowledge to wait till the user turns the paper around. I have another printer that does just that. It is slow in both printing and scanning. Not overly fond of the overall design. Because of the paper feed, it has to sit out from the wall a bit. My biggest complaint is it kept losing its wireless DHCP settings, so I eventually had to connect it via a SHORT USB cord to the PC. Not the ideal setup.

Comments about HP / Hewlett Packard HP Deskjet 3050A e-All-In-One Printer:
Standard setup was easy. The ePrint setup was a bit confusing in terms of understanding exactly what it would be needed for, and therefore how it needed to be set up.
