Ron,
My last comment on this. If this one machine is going to stand as your one and only, do it all machine, don't go too cheap. In now time this thing is going to running a small marathon for you every day, trust me.
We started with the Largest, not available in stores HP AIO, the OfficeJet 9120. It's an anchor, and makes the 7780 we got to replace it look like the difference between my 1st, 2nd generation Grand Cherokee and a Toyota Corolla. And guess what eventually did in the small parts on the autodoc feeder on top of the fold down cover. You are going to beat the CCHIT out of this thing once your panel gets up and running.
My other suggestion still stands because of all of this. Get one mother, main brick CCHIThouse one, and then relieve it of some of it's wear and tear as well as traffic and get one or two other less expensive units to help out once you have a feel for your needs and office work and flow... Like one for Rx's near but not in the examroom. Now I am scanning a lot and so we got a ScanSnap 510 that sits near that station in the backroom.
But none the less, get a tough one for anything that is going to have to serve all functions for everyone in the office.
Hey, I've got a quick question. Our old HP9120 had a built in print server, so it could take and control conflicting orders from multiple users, but all the lower cost ones we have gotten since then, can only do one task at a time even if they are on different parts of the machine, so it can't scan in and send out a fax while performing a print job at the same time. Does anyone know how these medium to upper priced Brothers perform in this manor. It is very frustrating a time wasting to have to wait for a simple print job to finish before one can send out a fax. Better yet, let's say the MA is sending out a long fax, meanwhile the doc is trying to print something from AC like lab orders or a 1500 for a patient, and all you can do is wait... Not fun. It is one of the things I really liked about our old 9120.
