"True 1200x1200 dpi Color laser with built-in duplexer, networkable, two+ paper trays."
Pros: Excellent output, fast, outstanding drivers, two paper trays plus multi-purpode tray
Cons: Cannot add more paper trays; Lexmark upgrades are way overpriced; somewhat noisy
Summary: This printer comes in three models: C524n (base model: single side printing only, networkable, 250 sheet paper tray with multi function tray, 128 MB memory); C524dn (C524n + duplexer); C524dtn (C524dn + additional 500 sheet paper tray). The C524n cannot be upgraded for duplexing, but the 500 sheet paper drawer can be added. Overall performance, including color output, is outstanding. Standard ethernet and USB 2.0 ports; parallel, serial and optical ports are optional. Instead of Lexmark memory upgrade (512 MB, ~$1200.00), use Kingston (~$90.00) instead. Once unit calibrates (several minutes) printing is very fast (~20 ppm). Fairly solidly built, but not bullet-proof like older HPs. Overall excellent value.
