HP Printers

• Because our repair staff stocks a full line of parts and technical manuals for HP printers we have made it the distict standard to purchase only HP printers. Any other printer that is purchased will not be supported by the DUSD Technology Department. We will, however, make every effort to solve you issues with other printers. There are many simple problems that can be fixed without the replacement of parts.

• The Technology department recommends that you purchase a networked printer. Every school has a fully functional network. We encourage people to use it to share your printing resources. By putting a printer on the network it may be accessible by other people on your campus. You can secure it to only let certain people print to it or you can open it up to anyone.

Here is a list of recommended HP printers that are currently availble. You can look at all the specifications at the HP web site.
