With a resolution as high as 1,200 dpi, prints are crisp and accurate, while speeds of up to 20 ppm (8 seconds for the first page out) mean you won't have to wait long for print jobs to finish.

The 133 Hz internal processor is capable of handling large print jobs, while the 10,000-page per month maximum duty cycle provides reliability even in heavy-use environments.

Problem with Fuser Film (Fixiereinheit) - otherwise fine.......2007-03-02

This really seems to be an inherent problem. I have two LJ 1300s in business use. One is still fine, on the other the fuser film has ripped after around 3 years moderate business use (symptoms exactly as described by previous users). Up until then good results, fairly quick and very quiet in standby.

Its not our Fathers Hewlett Packard.......2007-01-17

I had a HP laser I bought new in 1992 that lasted 13 years under home use. I bought a 1300n and it has lasted 18 months under very moderate home use. I turned it on one day and CLACK CLACK CLACK , very loud. Sounds like the problem described elsewhere. Service cost is ridiculous. I would expect better from HP. In anycase, I am not happy, and won't buy another HP.

Paper Jams and Crackling.......2006-05-20

Yup, the other reviewers have it right. Eighteen months-two years, wonderful printer, then CRUNCH, the paper begins to crinkle, the printer beings to crackle, and you're looking at either a big repair bill ($80 an hour in my area) or a new printer. Ouch!

Fuser film sleeve problems within a couple of years.......2006-05-03

I administer around 40 1300n printers and most of them are doing okay after 15 months worth of use but I have noticed several starting to have problems with the fuser film sleeve coming apart inside. At first you start hearing a noise as the sleeve revolves around with the part that is flaking off making noise with every spin. And from what I understand, this is not something very easy to replace by yourself.

Good while it lasted...about 2 years.......2006-04-17

I came online just to check prices for this printer, since mine just flamed out and I wanted to see how much I'd originally spent on it. I was startled to see other reviews detailing *exactly* what happened to my 1300... steaming along just fine until about year 2, then paper jams, crackling noises, shredded rollers and the works.

The printer worked like a champ for as long as it lasted, but once the crackling sound hits, as mentioned in another review, it's time for a new printer.
