Great for custom brochures. Low power. Compact size for color laserjet Cons: It has only one speed: SLOW. Toner is expensive. from Shopping.com The cartridges are way overpriced but I think that is common with any printer these days. I have no trouble printing on a variety of papers. I never use the card readers in the front but it is convenient to have them. I have hooked the printer up to a network with no trouble. from Amazon.com The printer had been purchased as a replacement for a 20-year old HP Laserjet III. My expectations of the new printer had been tempered; however, the product proved more disappointing than I could bear. from Amazon.com I have had 5 HP printers in the past 12 years, 2 of them using HP Color LaserJet technology. The 3600n and the 1518ni have both suffered electrostatic transfer belt failure. from Amazon.com This is one amazing color laserjet - probably one of the best bang for the buck you can find among all color laser printers. I had recently bought this printer in order to print out more than 2,500 color pages (10 copies of my Ph. from Amazon.com Pros: Price, vivid color output on plain paper, built in ethernet, PostScript support, built in card reader, small footprint fits nicely into my crammed office Cons: Toner cartridges are relatively expensive compared to some inkjet offerings Other Thoughts: With the current instant rebate on this printer, don't pass this up! Even without the rebate, this is still a great printer. from Newegg.com Pros: Small overall physical footprint, built-in ethernet port, built-in memory card reader, easy to configure printer settings via the built-in LCD panel. Cons: Takes a little while for a print job to print afer you click on the print button (tried both in OSX and Windows). from Newegg.com I guess, in this age of "bloatware", this may expected. The Bad: HP does not make high yield toner cartridges for this series of printers (this one and HP Color Laserjet CP1215 Printer). High yield cartridges are a great money saver since they typically give you 2-3 times more pages while typically costing only 20-25% more than standard cartridges. from Amazon.com After reading positive reviews on the HP site, I thought this printer was a perfect match for my needs. This heavy printer was easy getting my computer to recognize the printer but once I hit print, that was where all the problems began. from Amazon.com Does a nice job of printing in color/black. Toner will not print as suggested by HP, so be ready to spend some big money if you do much printing. Outside of the high operation costs I am quite satisfied with this printer. from Amazon.com
