Great printer
By Robert Anthony Reis
I bought several Epson ink jet printers over the last few years. 80% of the time I was just printing black text, hardly any pictures. Clogged nozzles and high costs for the ink made me move to a LaserJet printer. All was well and then the wife said I could upgrade and go to a color printer.

I bought the printer, connected to my 24" iMac directly by USB. I did not install the driver included on the CD but I was still able to add it as a printer. My test print worked fine.

I them moved the printer to my Time Capsule and set it up there. Again, my test print worked fine. Now my ball and chain can also print to the printer from her MacBook.

I will never go back to an ink jet printer. The print quality is good.

My one issue with this printer is that I have not been able to set up some kind of draft setting so that I could save ink. If I do, I will update the review.

decent printer
By Sherri
Everything about the printer is good, except the ink cartridges are expensive and it doesn't come with full cartridges. After about 600 copies the machine says I need to purchase another black cartridge. A full cartridge should print 3x that amount.

Decent Color Laserjet Printer; Bad HP Customer Service
By Motor Head
I bought this printer about a year ago upon the recommendation of my local IT support company; they also installed it as a stand alone printer with my Toshiba laptop which has Windows XP. After having dealt with inkjet printers and their cartridges I wanted something more robust and simple to use, hence color laserjet printer

Positive points :

- it works without any problems and has not jammed yet

- Black and white print quality is excellent, color is okay, but for photos it's
not anywhere near as good as a good inkjet printer, such as Canon, will do

- Speed is okay, but not particularly fast

Negative points :

- Toner consumption is relatively high, and toners cartridges are very expensive

- HP Customer Service consists of trying to sell you additional items; they can't
even answer a question about their HP photo paper availability, and they don't
have an organized listing of all HP paper formats/qualities

- Be aware that you should NOT use photo paper designed for inkjet printers; it
will likely melt due to the intense heat of the fuser ! This forces you to buy
genuine HP photo paper. This is not even mentioned in the user manual

- HP ToolboxFX which is supposed to help you maintain your printer never worked
correctly on my laptop. Again, no support is available on HP's website how to
make this work

- User manual discusses actual print tasks on only 4 pages (out of 154 total
pages) : not very comprehensive

- Duplex printing can be done, but is not explained in detail

It is sad to see that reputable companies, such as HP, have such poor customer service that seems designed to sell you things, not solve customers' problems with a specific product. Yes, HP offers all sorts of free on-line general classes about computers and printers, but very little SPECIFIC product support that is easily accessible
