Good multipurpose personal printer.
We purchased the Enny 6255 to replace our 8 year old printer. Couldn't be happier with the print quality and versatility of this printer.

Has a loader on top to feed paper
I bought this because I unintentionally ruined my old one. HP gave me $100 off this printer which has so many more features than the one I had before. I love HP and I can always count of them. Always.

Easy to Install
This printer is a good replacement for my old 6500 printer. It was easy to install and use quickly. My one concern is that the ink that came with the printer was exhausted very quickly. I didn't expect to have to buy more ink this soon.

Can I change to one sided printing?
Asked by: Bcoates
This link http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05632129.pdf has the manual for that unit. Page 32 mentions how to change it to duplex. In that same setting you will also be able to change it to single sided instead of having it print in duplex.
