Pros: Meets Expectations, Features
Cons: not compatible with vista- download printer driver
I LOVE this printer! Unlike the other "all in one" laser printer I had, this printer is QUIET! Because it does not have rotating print cartriges like some others, it is quiet. The print cartriges are so easy to replace! It is quick to warm up and print. The speed of print is good, and the quality is great. Although, when I tried to print a document with red on it, the color actually came out...orange. I even changed the cartriges to see if that was the problem, but no difference. Print cartriges are expensive, but seem to give you your money's worth. The size is bigger than most printers, but smaller than most "all in one" color laser printers. My only wish would be if it had automatic 2 sided printing and was wireless. Cons? The only problem is is will stop during a print and "clean." It doesn't take long, though. Also, when I first hooked it up, I kept getting an error while in WORD and it would not print a document but one time, and then I had to close WORD and reopen to print again. I called hp, and found out I needed to download a printer driver because I have VISTA and it wasn't compatible. Once I did that,though, it has been smooth sailing. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone. I am a teacher and use it daily. I print while my students work and it does not disturb them.
