I would note, as with the labels, it is necessary to change the Settings to accommodate this type of media.ĭuplex printing is not automatic on this LaserJet P2055dn printer and is in fact a manual process which requires the operator to feed the paper into the printer via the multipurpose tray (Tray 1). The instruction manual states that overhead transparencies can be printed on this LaserJet P2055dn, but this wasn’t something that I tried. Changing the Settings to accommodate specific media types is something that many people don’t realise is important, however, it can be the difference between the printer producing good or bad quality prints. Surprisingly, the printer handled them both well, although I did fail to change the Settings to accommodate label printing and after a little tweaking, the print quality was perfect. To me, these are a real test for any printer, due to their material complexities of flaps & adhesive.

It is worth making a mental note to fan the paper before putting it into the paper tray, this just eliminates any sheets that may have fused together in the packaging which may then cause an obstruction when printing.Īfter printing a series of mono prints which came out crisp & clear, I thought I would put the printer through its paces by trying envelopes and labels. There is a helpful little gauge on the left of the paper tray this indicates the paper level which I thought was worthy of a mention. Loading the paper into the tray was very simple and passed without event. The HP LaserJet P2055dn has a print speed of up to 35 pages per minute, using a standard A4 paper and whilst testing, the printer appeared to feed the paper smoothly into the machine without any jamming issues. For users on a system older than Windows 7, it does take slightly longer as installing the printer has to be done using a disc. Having the latest version of Windows installed on my laptop meant that I simply had to plug in the printer and I was ready to go amazed at how easy it was.
