Christopher,
I think the HP duplexers are a lot less good than the printers
themselves. Mine worked for a while and then gave up the ghost.
Efforts at reviving it have not been successful. Supposedly, there
was a repair kit for it from HP, but I haven't found one.

I use a Hewlitt-Packard 5100 laser printer that I bought used on
eBay. It has capacity of up to 12.28 X 18.5 inches and is fast and
tough. They are going used for about $600 for the basic model, but
I suggest getting the networking card if you have more than one
computer or printer. You might want an extra paper tray, too,
depending on what you want to do with it.
There are only two disappointments. I bought a duplexer for
automatic double-sided printing, but it won't work with the
thickness of paper I like, so I have to feed it through the
straight paper path on the side of the printer twice (once each side).
The other is that there seems to be a bug with 2-up printing. I
have tried to make choral booklets on ordinary-weight paper with
the duplexer, but it will always move the very last page onto a new
sheet of paper. I don't know if this is a printer problem or a
Finale problem (or an OS problem), but it keeps me from doing
efficiently what I bought the printer for, in part.
