Went to local OD and got it price matched to BB. Luckily when the cashier rang manager, manager told him how to override price over their headphone sets instead of coming up. At checkout cashier noticed that a rebate had also printed, and after asking manager by headphone, told me he could not give it to me. Oh well? :-p

Anyhow, should have gotten the M1522nf for about -$20 (cash in pocket) after rebate and taxes. This is completely YMMV but worth a shot.

dmv71 said:I called HP this morning and asked about OD not advertising the rebate. They said that it would not be a problem since OD is one of their retailers. She said I will get the rebate. Also, I asked about the 20% coupon. She said that if it is not HP then I should get the rebate. She took down my name and address to document our conversation. FYI.

Same here. At this point I think the deal is low risk.

Could there be any issues with the OM coupon? I don't forsee any issues since it doesn't require UPC but address looks way to close for comfort.

OD rebate goes to:

Just an FYI; installed my printer on the network this morning, and checked HP's website. There is a firmware update for the M2727nf, dated June 12, 2008 (LJM2727_FW_Update-20080612.exe). My HP 2727nf had firmware 20080118 on it (Jan 18 2008); not sure what the new firmware does, however.

Also noticed that the HP ToolboxFX says the print cartridge has 2999 pages remaining; I thought this was a 7,000-page cartridge? Maybe HP only includes the smaller print cartridge or something...

So I went to OD and price matched with BB for m1522nf and got with $263. Manager said, they can't give me $100 OD rebate form, I said fine. Bought one for me and one for my brother on separate receipts.

So I believe, I can get the OD rebate form online, right? and same goes for HP rebate. If it goes through, this is sweet, real sweet deal.

It seems that we can buy three printers. Can we buy three different printers and submit the rebate form for HP rebates?

Do both the HP and OD rebates allow you to purchase 1 of each model per address? I thought the OD rebate was limited to one rebate per address.

HotStuff2 said:hechuanhua said:It seems that we can buy three printers. Can we buy three different printers and submit the rebate form for HP rebates?The HP MIR form does appear to say one rebate per qualifying product, so in theory, yeah, you could do that.

Me, I'm quite happy withh the M2727nf...damn nice printer, and I tell ya, I'm liking the scan and/or print through the network.

Here's a question for anyone paying attention and who might know the answer: the HP M2727nf comes with 64mb RAM, and is expandable to 320mb (has a single 144-pin DDR2 RAM slot, so max memory size upgrade is 256mb.) What would be the purpose of upgrading the RAM? The only thing I can think of is that maybe it could hold more fax pages in memory or something?

GoRally said:how are the refil prices on these? decent enough? and can u do custom refills or u have to get these ones?If you'd bother to read the thread, you'd see the posts on the very first page concerning this.

For the M2727nf, you can get the 7,000-page cartridges (remanufactured) for ~$36 from Meritline.com, or two for $60 and change (coming out to ~$30 each), which is a decent price IMHO.
