k80 or 5110 - help choose

[leush]

Hi,

I am trying to choose between k80 and 5110 for a home business office. I'd appreciate hearing about personal experiences.

Also does anyone feel that d135 is worth twice the price?

thanks

I would strongly suggest the 5110 over the K80. The company I am working with deployed K80 printers to all their sales people, and it has become a nightmare. Software issues are the source of most our problems.

The k80 is no longer made so the 5110 is about the only way to go. We have deployed these to our remote, home office users. We have had some issues printing from Citrix (slow printing over dialup sessions, kinda expected) and with the printer wanting to recreate itself multiple times. This last is a consequence of our using XP and the fact that we put our users into the Users local group only. I would go for the 5110, but expect some issues.
