I know this might seem a little redundant, however, I ended up needing the usb connection on Windows XP SP 3 since for some wierd reason, it did not recognize the printer on the network. I installed the printer on the two computers using a USB cable and a network cable. Installing and setting up the printer software on the two computers did prove a little challenging at first. Since the included cartridge is just a starter cartridge, I also purchased a generic high yield printer cartridge to install after the initial starter cartridge runs out of toner.

One note before using the printer is to make sure during setup, you remove all of the tape and foam holding the pieces of the printer together, make sure you remove the new cartridge protection strip before printing any pages on the new printer. I printed a setup report page via the selection in the lcd menu to make sure the ram was installed properly and it showed up goo d.

Installing the additional RAM was as simple as removing a side door and poping in the module and closing the side door. I highly recommend anyone purchasing this printer for printing any large document files or graphic intensive files to purchase the additional RAM.

I had purchased a additional 256MB RAM module to increase the memory to 384MB total of which around 50MB was already being used by the new printer, for what I am not sure. Although I have much previous experience with laser printers, unpackaging and setting up the P2055dn printer was straightforward and intuitive. After receiving the HP LaserJet P2055dn, I setup and installed it on two computers.
