We currently have three of these printers throughout our business, because we liked them so well we ordered this one for another office.
I would say not bad if you think about the cost/value aspect. I bought this printer Winter term of 2006. Factor: Fall 2006, Spring 2008, and now Spring 2010. You betcha, now I am off to buy a new cartridge. Great for school, great for printing documents quickly. I used this printer in 2006 for my business classes upon graduating.
If I had an ink jet I would be in so much financial trouble due to my printouts. I have gone through 2 cartridges since getting it. Printer cost me: about $150, toner about $30 = about $250 for 3 years of having it = $80 per year cost. Then the job searches, interviews, printing resume/portfolio, printing directions, and so on.I am know in my masters, the teachers play this sick joke of giving the students about 150 pages per class per week to read. So have I gotten my moneys worth. If you don't care about color (I don't) then you save more money and time in the long run.
Oh, the trees I have killed.
I eventually got it working with some 3rd party tools, but then the printer power supply died. This printer, though mostly functional when connected to a Windows box, did not work without significant amounts of effort when connected to a Mac. Customer support at HP was not helpful in resolving my Mac connectivity issues. I called HP customer support again and was told to buy a new HP printer.Needless to say, this is the last HP printer I will own. I suggest looking at some of the Brother models instead.
Somehow my husband managed to rig this for OS X, but when we upgraded to Snow Leopard we could not get the iMac and this printer to talk to each other. When it was working it was great. Only buy this printer if you run a PC. Yes, HP has an alleged Mac driver on its website but it is completely worthless.
It woorks very well.But when I cancel it because of error, it took forever to cancel.So I can't wait anymore an I turn off and turn on gain.Sometimes I use next printer in other to finish it quickly.This is not convenient compare to other printer.
