This is a link to the newer model I found at Office Max. 
http://www.officemax.com/omax/catalog/sku.jsp?skuId=21215356&category_Id=292

Since mine is a year old, I did not find it right off, but I am sure it is 
out there.  You can do a further search.

I did find another model that seems similar.
My cartridge numbers are  Vivera HP Ink.  88 is the number.  Each color 
Black, Yellow, Cyan and Magenta are number 88, you just have to look for the 
color name on the package.  They also have XL cartridges, which is what I 
have purchased for the black as they have more ink and do not need to be 
changed as often.

The print quality is excellent..in my opinion.
I bought mine at Costco and had a coupon for I THINK $50 off.  I think I 
paid about $300 for it.

This is a link to a 7580 which seems the same for features and functions. 
If this link does not work, go to www.costco.com and then search for 
Computers then Multifunction Inkjets and you will see the HP 7750
That is currently $300..

You do NOT have to turn the page over when you make two sided copies from 
two sided originals.
There is a sheet feeder and you can just load them like you do a photo copy 
machine.

I have scanned pages (I do this a lot when doing rebates.  I scan the 
documents I am going to submit and make two sided copies.
When using the scanner I say I want two sided copies.  I scan the first side 
and it stops and then I take the original doc(s) off the scanner and put the 
items for the second side on the scanner.  Then I push the button for it to 
scan and voila, I have one page with two sides..again..saving paper and file 
space.

You can also make multiple two sided copies of multiple pages and have them 
collated.
Say you have a booklet that is 4 pages long and you want 3 copies of it.
You tell the printer the original is 4 (single or 2 dual sided)  pages and 
that you want 3 collated copies
Load the papers in the feeding tray and push the go button.

You can also print dual sided collated docs from documents on your computer. 
(for example..pdf files)

Depending upon your need..I usually buy stuff on Black Friday (the day after 
Thanksgiving) but given the economy in the US...maybe back to school could 
be as good.  I have no clue.

Bob, my answers to your direct questions are below..next to your questions.
I hope this helps...

PS.  I bought this one at Costco..and I do find it good to buy the extended 
warranty.  HP has been very good for me.  They will ship you a replacement 
printer.  You take it out..put on the pieces of your printer..like the top 
part or whatever they tell you to put on the new printer and put your broken 
printer in the box and mail it back to them.  It is postage paid.  I had 
them send me a replacement printer  after trying 5 different cartridges and 
not being able to print.  The printer came, we put the parts from our old 
one onto the new one.. tried it..and it did not print.  Unbelievably, it 
still did not print.  I had purchased FIVE BAD cartridges!  I took them to 
the Office Depot store where I purchased them and they gave me my money 
back..NO questions asked.
I then went next door to Costco and bought some there.  I went home and both 
the new printer and my old printer worked just fine!  I called HP and told 
them about the cartridge problem and that the printer was just fine.  They 
said GREAT!  I just had to ship back what they sent me.  I did not have to 
pay any postage for the replacement I did not need.  They were very nice.

 (To clarify the need to take parts from the old machine and put them on the 
new one......  They ship a replacement machine minus a part that is needed 
to run the machine. It is a part that is easy to take off a machine.  That 
way, you have to have the part to make the replacement machine work.  This 
way, you really have to have a machine to get the replacement one to work. 
Another feature/step that was created because too many folks are not honest. 
How sad.  Every time you open a package that is in plastic and seems 
impossible to get it out of the packaging thank some dishonest folks.  What 
is even worse is when you had to buy something to cut into the plastic to 
get your purchase out of the plastic.  And... you cannot open that plastic 
to get the cutter out!  ha ha!

Hope this helps Bob.

Hi Rose
The two side copy feature, do you have to manual turn the
pages to get the two sided copy or does the machine do it?
THERE IS A SHEET FEEDER.  JUST LOAD THE ORIGINAL 2 SIDED DOCS AND IT COPIES 
THEM AS TWO SIDED (WHEN YOU TELL IT TO)
IF THEY ARE ONE SIDED DOCS, YOU TELL THE PRINTER THEY ARE ONE SIDED 
ORIGINALS AND YOU WANT TWO SIDED COPIES AND YOU WANT THEM COLLATED.

What is the cost?  MINE WAS ABOUT $300

Does it do color?  YES IT DOES COLLOR AND AN EXCELLENT JOB TOO!

Does it use ink Cartridges?  YES IT USES INK CARTRIDGES.....IT USES THE NEW 
VIVERA CARTRIDGES.

I Have an HP Office Jet Pro L7650 and love love love it.
It does two sided copies easy.. even from scans....and has a
sheet feeder
which is great when I have a bunch of copies to make...like
a tax return..it
will make two sided copies so three pages ends up as 3 pages
instead of 6!
This not only saves paper, but file space too.

I have had it for about a year.  It works great and I like
the new
cartridges too!  They seem to last longer..but that could
just be my
opinion/misperception.
