Duplexer installation I can't for the life of me figure out how to attach the two-sided print accessory to the back of the 7280. It just doesn't seem to fit. Can anyone help me?

Mine just slots in and out. There are a couple of buttons on each side to depress when you remove it. You might try holding those in when you pop it back, although mine just clicked back into place without doing this.

The printer is not good for thicker cover weight paper. I tried 67# and it curled tighter than a tootsie roll, basically unusable. And the duplexer jammed every single time. The duplexer will not processes paper over standard weight. I'm disappointed. I'd appreciate recommendations of a printer that prints flat 2 sided on thicker paper.

No. This HP Duplex accessory only works with the HP HP Officejet 7110 Wide Format Printer and the HP Officejet 7610 Wide Format All-in-One Printer. My initial search found that your printer does not support duplex printing, but with that said check out the following link http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printing-Issues-Troubleshooting/How-do-you-print-on-two-side-on-an-Officejet-6600/td-p/1923273. Good luck. Duplex printing saves papers, Kudos to you.

We have one. Duplex worked right out the box for the MacBook. I'm on about the sixth install from the CD's on a Windows 7 Pro machine and duplex has never come up as available in any software. HP's software continues to be awful.

I don't have this printer yet but I've been researching and talked to the Epson rep at Fry's. I can answer your last two questions: Yes, you need an additional part (available for ~25 bucks) for duplex printing. However, there is no duplex auto doc feeder, making automated dual sided copies impossible. BTW the duplex Auto Document Feeder (ADF) scanning is what is holding me back on this purchase. My current HP 7780 has a duplex ADF and the Canon MX7600 have it.

No, this is basically a 2150cdn printer with a scanner slapped on top and perpendicular to the normal print pathway. Even if the scanner was closer to the duplex unit, it would be oriented the wrong way. So, no hope of a firmware upgrade for that.

I did some checking on the HP site and found that the C7G18A Duplexer is only compatible with HP Officejet 7110 and the HP Officejet 7610. See URL http://www8.hp.com/us/en/products/oas/product-detail.html?oid=5358096&jumpid;=reg_r1002_usen_c-002_title_r0003#!tab=compatible_hosts.

It does not do automatic duplexing. You have to manually flip the pages. If you really need duplex capability, you need a different printer.

Carl! I just did it... took out the color cartridge and it printed a B/W image....hey thank YOU it is good to know just for general purposes. BTW it is darn good little printer and if you can find it on sale as I did (40 bucks) also there is a vendor here that sells both cartridges for under 20 bucks including shipping...they wanted 48 bucks at Staples for the dang cartridges themselves for cryin' out loud........:>}

I too thought it would be as simple as plugging it in. After trying on my own without success, I called a neighbor who was able to get the new printer working in no time. He said to click on the computer control panel and where it says devices or printers right click on printer change to "default printer." I hope this works for you. Good Luck.

Yes, I have mine set up for auto duplex. Even when I print from my phone it prints on both sides.

It would depend on the model number of the printer you bought. If you look on the HP site under your printer model they give you the correct number for your printer model. I just purchased a new printer this year also and I had to go to the HP site and do some research myself as to what duplexer fit my model printer. My printer model was the 7610 and it took the Hp duplexer C7G18A and it works perfect. I hope this helps you.

Go to the mfg. site and download the manual to get that answer I guess. 'Varieties'? This is a poorly supported, dis-continued product and I find it to be a pain in the ass. The wire-less feature worked for about 6 prints and in spite of many hours spent trying to get it going and an hour on the phone w/ support I still need a cable. Other than that I guess it's ok. 'You get what you pay for' and 'Caveat Emptor' are very appropriate here.

I don't have an answer, Scott, but seeing as how the 3-color cartridge is such a limitation, both in ink usage and in printing pure blacks, I wonder what the possibility is that Dymo will bring out a DiscPainter II shortly, with at least 2 cartridges. There's certainly room for them back there, and it makes a lot of sense. With my luck, they'll do it right after I buy the 3-color version. ;-) Thanks for your review. Re the dithering, is it really that bad when printing in high-resolution? Seems like at 1200 dpi the dithering ought to be minimal, but then I haven't seen one of these.

Thanks for the update! I'll look into the BX-1021, did you have to use a special cable to connect it to the IM600? Altec told me last week that the sub-woofer for the VS-2421 would work as well. I'm little leary as they have given me bad advice before. My remote for the IM600 died back in March, it's taken me this long to get a replacement. They said it shipped, then said it was out of stock and would ship when they got them in (2 months ago), didn't ship, had to call (2 weeks ago) with still no remote, called again last week, hopefully it's on it's way. Not impressed with their CS.

Hi Vicki,Amazon asked me to reach out to you as I recently purchased a duplexer for a 7610 printer and I formerly worked at HP. The info that may be of help is that the duplexers are for specific printers. They have part # that usually begins with Cxxxxx. You can go to the HP website under technical specification for that model of printer and find the part number. The duplexers are manufactured for a period of time, when I was at HP, it was usually until the next generation of printer, about 2 years. The resellers of HP will buy large lots of these and then resell until they run out.Hope this gives you some insights.Boib Hi Vicki,Amazon asked me to reach out to you as I recently purchased a duplexer for a 7610 printer and I formerly worked at HP.

A lot more information is needed to even address your problem. I suggest that you go to one of the online HP blog sites and query that user group. You need to carefully outline the specifics of the operating configuration when your error occurs, like your printer model, does it have duplex printing, what have you tried already, etc. The quality of the replies that you get will depend a lot upon the how clearly you describe your problem.
