Product Description Create high-impact, professional documents and marketing materials with this surprisingly affordable, network-ready color laser printer. Perfectly priced for the home office, yet powerful enough and network-ready for small offices and workteams, this printer lets you produce business, marketing, and sales documents in-house, rather than outsourcing to a print shop. HP LaserJet print cartridges include advanced toner formulas that are designed together with HP-engineered fuser technology in the printer to provide a wide range of colors, sharp black text, and smooth gloss, whether printing with plain or HP specialty paper.

Written By josecitos_girl Date Written Sep 01 2006 Summary April 16, 2007 UPDATE: When the original toners (that came with the printer) were only 30% low, all the paper printed with a kind of "marbled" background. The manual indicated this is a sign the "toner is low," but 30% full is hardly low! Long story... Strength Inexpensive, easy to install, easy to use, beautiful results. Weakness HUUUUUUge, but can't see any other way to design it. Bottom Line Perfect as an inexpensive second, light-use, back-up printer. For the many reasons listed by the other posters, it shouldn't be considered as a sole or principal printer. Cheapest 8*10 photo printer out there (regular printer too)

Written By bcloch Date Written Mar 02 2006 Summary Even with the optional cartridge out override available from the front panel, this printer is not a heavy duty office type device. The reason has to do with the way printers are rated for number of print cycles per cartridge. All laser printers have... Strength Excellent print quality Weakness HP color lasers in the $500 to $700 range do not have these disadvantages. Bottom Line Home use only. Avoid for business use. Memory not expandable, cartridges expensive for page count obtained. End of life less than 2 years if used in office. Not a bad deal!

Written By sophiesdad Date Written Dec 17 2005 Summary I read the other reviews and went to Best Buy with fear and trepidation.

Strength Easy setup, quiet, and good printing quality. Weakness Not many upgrades available, toner is a little pricey. Bottom Line If you want a good, basic color laser printer, this is the one. Great printer

The price was right ($299 at Costco); so, I decided to give this entry level color laser printer a try. For commercial real estate appraisal reports,...

If you try it, be sure to save your receipt and packaging! |
