My company and I are looking to purchase a Color LaserJet 5500DN to replace two

My company and I are looking to purchase a Color LaserJet 5500DN to replace two ailing DeskJet 2600 printers. However, I am unable to find information on whether this printer works well in AutoCAD 2000i and AutoCAD 2005. Does anyone have any experience with this printer? If so, were you pleased with the results? If not, have you found a Color LaserJet that does work with AutoCAD 2000i AND 2005?

TIA,
Jason Hotchkiss

 

Last year we purchased a new HP4650 colorlaserjet.
Works good on all windows apps. (also autocad)
Printer itself is fine.
Drivers created havoc on our network.
Like: randomly any print sent from any computer could end up with nobody
beeing able to print because the printservice has been canceled on our
server.
This had to manually restarted. (sucks)
No matter what driver and what language (pcl5 or pcl6) problem stayed.
The printer is now connected directly to the network (without the server)
and it runs, now the driver simply 'forgets' every now and then what
papertray to use.
Short:
Print quality is very good
Speed very good.
Driver sucks.
Service? From HP? (don't make me laugh)

Maybe the 5500 is better on all of these, i surelyhope so, otherwise take
another brand(xerox, minolta)
