Printer Update
I printed hundreds of pages for an organization to which I belong, and I killed my 4550! It had a carusel error, which it seems is common on this type of printer. I looked at repair, and even got one new part, but it sounds like it needs a complete teardown and rebuild. No time for that, so I found another good used one, this time an HP4600. No duplex on this, but not a big deal. Toner cartridges are more expensive on this one, but still way cheaper per page than an inkjet. I went through some shipping damage after it arrived. It wasn't clear whether the freight company or the seller damaged it, but the seller was super cooperative about sending all the "new" used parts I needed. End result is a great printer that starts up way faster than my 4550. I think now I'll rebuild the 4550 and sell it here locally!
