I used an HP Deskjet 500 for several years before switching to a Laser Jet 4P
last year. I agree completely with your assessment. I found the Deskjet to be
an almost flawless printer, despite rigorous use. As I recall I had one
problem with it in 5 years of use, and the HP dealer fixed it for free (3
year warantee) and returned it in one day.

The only complaint I have about the Laser Jet 4P is that it curls paper, and
this is especially pronounced in the summer when the weather is humid. I
complained shortly after buying the printer, but they assured me that this
was a paper problem. The real problem I suspect, since I don't recall this
with the old 3 series, is that because of the smaller size, the paper has to
pass closer to the heat source inside the printer, which forces it to curl on
the way out. Other than this minor aggravation, however, I have used the 4P
for almost a year without a problem. 600 DPI print quality for under a $1000
is hard to beat.
