Are the Canons the only low cost printers available in the USA that
will print on both sides of the paper without the user having to
turn the paper over manually? Thank you in advance for all replies.

There are others, some made by HP (I think). However, even with the Canon
Pixma line, i.e. the iP4000 that I have, the duplex feature is of marginal
value IMHO. Why? Two reasons. #1 it is quite slow. #2 you need a very good
opaque sheet that prevents bleed through of the ink from one side to the
other. This isn't a problem with 2S printing on a laser since it uses dry
toner, but on an inkjet the liquid ink will soak through and be very evident
on the reverse side.

No. My HP990CSE and most of the later HP DeskJet business printers can
print full duplex as well. Epson is the only major brand that does not
offer this feature.

No really true. As for #1, while it will not break speed records you
can vary the speed by changing the dry time. It is flexible and really
nice. As for #2, I have been using Hamermill 24# JetPrint(now
discontinued but replaced) other Hammermill injet and laser jet 24#
paper, Kodak Paper and other major brands with no evidence of bleed
through. I would suspect that most major brands of 24# will be OK.

I have found the above statement totally false and I have used many
brands of paper and have frequent need and use of this feature.

As usual and expected your statements lack credibility. By your own
admission you do very little printing with the iP4000 so how do you have
frequent need and use of this feature? Drying time has absolutely nothing to
do with the mechanical speed of the paper pickup. Using the duplex feature
it takes approximately 18 seconds from the end of side one until the first
character is printed on side two. The duplex feature is interesting and if
someone absolutely needs such a feature then the Pixma line is a cost
effective choice. As to paper and bleed through it is especially bad on
Canon 24# Brilliant White Inkjet Paper and Weyerhaeuser 24#. 20# paper is
out of the question although it does just fine when printed 2S with a laser.
And before you set yourself up as an expert on paper types and try to be the
supreme ultimate authority in that area as well, I will let you in on part
of my background. I've owned three print shops and know paper and paper
types very well.

I use the Canon IP3000 for duplexing all the time. 28# copy paper works fine
and it's almost 2x as fast as my old HP 990 at duplexing, mostly because
it's just a faster printer.

Daniel,

We have a HP 6122 which has duplexing capability. This printer is still
available from Newegg and others for around $170. There is also a network
version ( 6127 ) of the printer but I think it costs about $100 more than
the 6122. The printer is very fast although there is a lot more mechanical
noise than with other HP printers we have.

We do very little photo printing but what we've done with this printer is
very good - to our eyes anyway.

Maybe you will learn how to read and when you do you will learn how to
understand. When I said I do very infrequent printing I meant "I" under
the context of photos. I print computer programs, mostly Visual
Basic.net and SQL Server DB Diagrams and use 2 sided printing all of the
time. The majority is on the HP in draft mode but I use the Canon
enough. The Canon is exposed on the network and others use it to print
duplex business documents. So wake up and smell the roses.

It has to to with the total speed. I am concerned with when I get the
results. Sure a high speed laser is faster and I have used them also.
I just do not want to spend $10,000 on one.

I never measure it but I am sure that if you have a 12 page document and
want to save 50% paper it is faster and more accurate than turning the
paper over by hand and feeding it back in.

Some absolutely need it, some just need it, some like it, and some do
not know they need it.

Try Hammermill 24# or Kodak Ultra Bright also a 24# bond. I am also
sure that toliet paper would bleed.

I really do not care about your background and what you know about
paper. I just went down to Stapes and looked at ultra bright - 106+ 24#
paper. Since they had a good deal on Hammermill (International Paper) I
bought it and liked it better than the Office Depot Shark White I had
before. Neither paper bleed. So I use it and am satisfied. I do not
need to know any more about paper. And it I deed I can call customer
service of any of the large paper houses and they will help me choose a
paper for a specific job if I need that advice.

Define low-cost... If you are willing to dig around on Ebay
you can find used laserjet printers with duplexers.

I have a laserjet4+ with 50Mb ram, postscript, 10M jetdirect and
a duplexer; I paid about $200USD for it. But then again that was
a few years ago <g>

"Faster" and "more accurate", my ass!

You obviously use it only for amusement and to impress people. Even one
page duplexed takes twice as long as one page manually flipped. Timed it.

Printing a numbered 12 page document using the agonizingly slow Canon
duplex feature on my Pixma takes 6 minutes and 43 seconds! My wife
wasn't impressed and threatened to leave if I ever made her watch again.

Printing that same 12 page document manually, odd pages first, flipping
them over, printing the even ones, takes only 2 minutes and 12 seconds.
In plain English, I could print 36 pages manually in the time it takes 12
pages duplex printed! Tell me again how it's faster and more accurate.
I need a good laugh.

The HP 990CSE/CXI was the first inkjet to do so. Great draft mode that
almost rivals others in standard more and reasonable fast. It duplexes
without any problems. I have not had a jam in over 3 years.

Daniel,

Try the Xerox Phaser 8400DP (Duplex).

Well why don't you run this test. Get a 12 page document and configure
the printer for duplex printing. Press the print button. Now go to the
bathroom and jerk off. After you have a real good time your document is
done.

If you did not have this feature you would still be horney. :-D

Wrong again. The HP 970 had a duplexer std and I think I remember
others lessor 9xx models it was an option. The 990 came after the 970.

I'll give you a half point because it was the 9xx series that brought
duplexing to inkjet printers from HP.

You mean you didn't buy Measekite's *expert* Canon salesmanship that it
was faster and more accurate than doing it yourself? What took you so

Or, instead of doing it third party, do it directly from Xerox:

No third party to worry about going belly-up or sending you overpriced
third-world supplies. And the Xerox deal includes Xerox service; whose
service, if any, does "Free Printer Guy" include?

Yup, I have a 970 as my everyday printer. Solid as a rock, very very slow
for duplex, waits for ever to let the ink dry before pulling the paper in to
print the other side. However it is wonderful for printing manuals, just go
have supper while it does it!!

I print manuals manually (odd and even pages). Can't imagine anyone
printing 350 pages duplex (Canon's, for example). Both sides of a
page do take over a minute. 350 pages would takes hours. Manual
turning would save an hour or longer of wear and tear on my printer.

HP decided to release a less expensive version of the 990 called the
970. I think that speed was the main difference. And it was an option.

Go in the driver and you can adjust the drying time. I did and got
faster results and with hammermill 25# paper I find that I did not need
the default drying time. HP chose that default to be conservative
because they did not know what kind of paper the user would print on.

Once you graduate high school you will not need to print that much.
Besides, I am not sure that the input or output tray can handle that
amount of paper. But you can print partially unattended and then go and
jerk off. That might be fun.
