does this version have a printer setup to print documents as PDF files. In other words when I print a document can this version convert it to a .PDF

Yes, when I go to "print" I get the option - Adobe PDF (Type: Adobe PDF converter)

The easiest way for us to set this up is to use the "print from email" feature. You set up an email address for the printer from within the web interface for the printer (it might be possible on the little color screen, but that's not what we did). Then, when you send emails to that address - from *any* device, it will print them. Here's the clever part. It will print *all* of the attachments (meaning, you can attach multiple documents to the email and it will print them)! Word docs, PDF's, etc... Also, if you attach a photo, it will print it using the special photo paper tray. It works really well for us. There is also some limited support for direct printing from devices (I hear), but I've never tried that. The print from email works brilliantly (for us).

I was lobbying customer support to add the capability to upload PDF files :) I just got this idea - you can read email attachments, so could you send yourself a PDF and read it?????

Yes there is. Make sure you install the PaperPort program to make it work properly. PaperPort is included in the SoftWare Disk included with the Printer. Make sure to install the printer using the Disk rather than using Microsoft's "Included" software. You will get a much better User Interface and many more Printer Options. With the PaperPort installed I have "Scanned" a hundred pages at a time without a problem. Instead of Scanning from "Windows", open PaperPort and Scan from the PaperPort UI (User Interface). You can set it to "Stack" the Scanned objects, reverse their order and/or Unstack them if you wish to view any particular pages. You can Save the scanned pages either in PP or Save them to Docs or Desktop etc., and even Print them directly from PaperPort. The PP Program is worth more than the Printer! Great little Program! Really. READ THE DIRECTIONS (if you don't you may not be able to divine all of the Printer's functions). Good Luck and Enjoy!

It does not. You have to search for a PDF template to fill it in. This template will be blank accept it will have shaded areas that you can put your information in and it will print on the form. The one I found was a zip file that contained PDF files for copy A and copy B. Copy C is essentially the same as copy B.

It prints then 1 PDF page or 2 comic pages at a time. Just a heads up though, it will print with the watermark over everything making it hard to read. I performed a comic for a forensic competition and needed to provide source material, so I screen shot each page then put that into a word document and saved it as a PDF. This circumnavigated the watermark, but was a little tedious getting the adjusting the size and cropping the screen shots.

LoveGadgets nailed it; it does not give you the option of two-sided printing when you reach the dialog box for printing a document or file. Technically, you can do double-sided if you print the even pages, go to the printer, replace them in the tray, and then print the odd pages. But I don't think that's what most people look for when asking about double-sided print capability. I just returned mine having discovered this, and having confirmed with HP support that indeed it does not have automatic two-sided (duplex) print options. So don't be fooled. http://h71016.www7.hp.com/html/pdfs/LJPro_400_Color_M451.pdf LoveGadgets nailed it; it does not give you the option of two-sided printing when you reach the dialog box for printing a document or file.

PDFs suck on the Archos 5. I looked at the PDF Manual that came preloaded on it and it loads for like 30 seconds just to scroll down a page.

Sven Golly, does it not do scan to PDF anymore? My old one (I'm looking for a replacement) used to go directly to PDF and after copy-paste, you could edit the text.

The Samsung printer I had before this one, did. You scanned from the printer and it would show up on you computer as a PDF. I cannot figure out how to do it on this one. I scan and the print a PDF printer software. It's frustrating.

Yup. Seems to work just fine. Also, a really nice software bundle is included - eliminates Adobe Acrobat - an excellent PDF Converter and PDF Creator is included. Good luck!

I've never done that, I don't use Word. But it will make a PDF with no problem.

Yes it will. The doc can be scanned to pdf to your computer or directly into an email that you send from the printer without the need of a computer. The printer also has an address book function for frequent recipients of your pdf attachment emails. In the case of a multi-user environment (e.g. a small office), there is a code option for your email address so other people cannot send pdf scans directly from the printer using your email credentials. This is a very versatile printer and easy to use. I have purchased three of them!

Normally you don't set the *printer* to print black&white; only. Instead you select the black&white; printing option on the print menu of whatever application (IE browser, Chrome browser, Acrobat (pdf) Reader, etc.) you are using. You have to do this each time you print a document.

I talked with our tech and he said yes you can use it as a printer only. There is a manual print option on the machine to enable it to do that. We use if for both and it works great!

Not on this model. They do manufacturer a more expensive one which does create pdf files to save.
