I needed a cheap laser printer to print resumes while looking for a new job. I didn't have a lot to spend and saw this at a very cheap price for $250. I have worked with Lexmark printers at work and knew they hold up pretty well and print nice from...

I notice other reviewers don't seem to be having the same problems I have, so maybe I got a lemon. Basically, every time it tries to grab a sheet of paper to print, it will grab two, three, four or more pages! Not some of the time. Not most of the...

I do a lot of printing, both color and black and white. I was in need of a good laser printer to take over all of my text printing. I didn't have a big budget for this, but looked at several options. I did a good bit of research, and was down to a...

I bought this printer to replace an HP Laser II that had run problem free for 10 years before its power supply died. A tough record to go up against. The Optra installed easily and runs trouble free. When the inevitable paper jam occurs (usually due...

I run a small home office and printing was always my Achilles heel with a Tektronix color printer that I had inherited. The Tek required incantations to the printer gods in order to work. Imagine my surprise when printing some invoices to the Optra,...

Installation was a snap (used USB). Documentation/software is excellent--driver updates will automatically download from web if you direct the software to do so (nice feature).
