Advantages: Great quality
Disadvantages: Slow, high cost

...printer in question was the HP OfficeJet K7100. It retails around £190 and was of far higher quality than the other school printers. My experience I was printing one black and white sheet of guitar tablature. There was not a lot of printing to be done and i expected it to be out by the time reached the printer. This, however, was not the case. It didn't take too long but for what i was printing i thought it was a while. (It took around 40 seconds). ...
...plain sheet, but from past experience i know it can print in very good quality. A full colour sheet will come out in great detail and it can print photographs in great detail too. The only thing i will say was that it was a little smudged. Whether that was me or not i am not sure. It cost me 5p for a black and white sheet, although this was through the school. The real cost is listed below. I was very happy with my Media practical, a music magazine, ... Read review

Advantages: fast & reiable

We have recently purchased 2 of these at my office, none of us are pros with computers or networks but we were able to set them up on our on and get them on the company network within 30 mins! (via USB) It comes with a cd-rom with installation software and a users guide and also a paper get started guide. It is also compatable with macs and windows although I can only comment on use with windows. The printer is black and white and the tray can hold ...
...pages per minute with the first page coming out within just over 8 seconds from 'sleeping'. It has a 32M memory which can be expanded to 288MB so you can be sure you can send large documents with pictues and so on without it crashing like some older printers, like nashuatecs.

Advantages: Reliability; specification dpi; trustworthy model; size
Disadvantages: Weight; installation difficulties a possibility

...for a second-hand printer, the HP LaserJet 4000n is generally good for home environments, especially those where a family has to share study space: it doesn't take up too much room on a desk, and the fact that the paper comes out the top means that you won't have your nice smooth copies smudging each other or spilling onto the floor. The HP LaserJet 4000n may also have a role to play in small business, but only if your company has a LAN connection ...
...up for yourself on the HP helpline. Fortunately, their technical support is generally pretty good in the UK and Europe. I am told it is also good in the USA, but don't have personal confirmation of this. Do also consider the weight of the printer: a not-inconsiderable 17.8 kg (about the weight of a six-year-old child). -- SPECIFICATION -- In all honesty, wired network printers have had their day, but as wired printers go, this one is good. It has ... Read review

Advantages: Reasonable printing costs, quick print speed, very good quality in both colour and B/W
Disadvantages: It could be smaller

The HP Officejet Pro K5400 costs about £80 (it depends where you get it from) and its marketing point is that it is supposed to be the world's fastest desktop printer for business color. I'n not quite sure what the differnce between business colour and other sorts of colour are, but hey, who's worrying! It's a good machine to have if you want a reasonable nod towards a colour laser printer, but don't actually want the expense and desk space of owning ...
...It works really well with HP photo paper (I've done a separate review of that if anyone is interested). It prints in 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution in black and white and 4800 x 1200 dpi resolution in colour. In terms of desk space, it's about average - I find all HP printers quite bulky, but it sits nicely on top of a filing cabinet. Printing costs are not bad. You have black and colour cartridges and standard refills cost about £17 each. That's quite ... Read review

Advantages: Durable, time efficient, high quality
Disadvantages: none

This product is very good for producing business type letters. It is fast and reliable and rarely gets jammed. It can use universal paper as well as the more expensive type papers and the memory capacity is very good. Although it only prints in black and white it is a high definition print quality and the ink cartidges last a fair while even when it is being used by several printers. Even when it shows that the ink is getting low, it is possible ... Read review
