We have owned this printer for close to 3 years now. We switched from inkjet to laser with this machine. Our office is 100% Mac based. From day one this printer has been great. Super easy to network with multiple Mac machines through standard 10/100/1000...
I have had this for over a year, and am very fairly with it. I have yet to buy any toner/ink for it, and would have spent perhaps $100 on inkjet cartridges with my old printer. Note that this printer comes with FULL tanks of toner. When I was comparing...
When it comes to purchasing a printer, I look for three things: reliability, features and toner consumption. I have had both 2605dn and 2600n for a year now and I can say that when it comes down to features and memory, the 2605dn comes out shining, but...
For the past few years inkjet users have been paying dearly for color printing capability. Two or three years ago a color laserjet printer that uses dry toner was very expensive (commonly $1000). Then prices on these machines began to crash. Other...
I've had my 2600n for almost 2 years now and it's easily the best $300 I've ever spent on a technology/computer related product. I have the printer networked to all our home computers and it is used quite often. I've replace the black cartridge but...
Easy to setup with easy to read startup instructions. We were printing quality color photos and docs in a matter of minutes. We have it on our home network and share it with 2 PC's and 3 laptops. The only negative was the shipping. It took well over 3...
Excellent printer, the design is elegant and ease that gives the user is excellent, allowing a good performance when printing high quality in large quantities....
I have had this printer for about a year and I no complaints, the print quality is excellent for the countless; menus, newsletters and posters i print for my small resturant on a daily basis. It has easily paid for it self many times over from the ink...
It works great. The printer isn't that large. But it prints fast, and the quality is good as well (it prints much faster than the "better" ones at my workplace). And it looks cool...
Decided to buy 2600N printer and am happy with the outcome. No issues, good communication and delivery was on time. New in the box just as it was stated. Good service....
I can't complain--since receiving the product listed, we have used it a few times. The doctors we purchased it for have been very pleased with the (patient) image results and have even gone so far as to use some of the printed images in their...
I have been very impressed with this printer and the high quality printouts I am getting. For someone working on a dissertation (as I am) this printer is a...
I have owned an older HP Black and white printer for 15 years and it keeps going strong. The 2600N is also working great with great color and never jams. It will probally last for years also....
I was very pleased with the HP 2600N laser printer and it actually arrived several days earlier than expected. The print quality is excellent for my intended purpose and I would purchase it again given my experience thus far....
Excellent! Brilliant colors come out of this great printer that is easy to install and print from. I would purchase it again, if I had the need of another....
This is a wonderful printer. Ships with full ink cartridges which is a big deal! Price can't be beat, and it lives up to the HP name for quality. Takes seconds to install the drivers and set up the printer (I have mine as a network printer). Works on...
This printer is a baby HP3600N, a workhorse color laser. The 2600 is an amazing printer for such a cheap price. It is small and quiet. It delivers super quality. You gotta get one...throw out that inkjet junk and move up to corporate quality at a...
Easy set up,prints great in color on regular paper. photoes on laser photo paper are as good or better then from photo shops. I highly recomend this printer....
I would recommend this printer to anyone who wants laser quality and needs output that doesn't take forever! Easy to assemble and operate, excellent quality, and a great buy at the price. I'm REALLY glad I got...
Bought this printer based on reviews I had read. Although some reviews were slightly negative , on the whole the bulk were glowing, and after having had mine for 3 months now I have to concur. For the price , I am very pleased with the print quality. Not...
the text is crisp and the graphics is crisp... i can't ask for more... maybe just that the printer can include the 4000 page toner instead of the 2000 one... but oh well. if you have paper jam all the time, it could be due to the orange thingy in the...
This is a wonderful printer, and I think easily the best at this price point. In fact, I would stack it up against anything under $1k in terms of quality and ease of use. The only difference is the 2600n takes a few seconds longer to print, but for...
Great, easy to set up network printer. Comes with full cartridges. Seller had it to me in five...
The product was delivered in record time. It arrived in a new box that contained all the included items. I set it up in a very short time with flawless results. I have used it since delivery (approx 3 months) without any apparent problems. The only...
Fantastic value, exceptional print quality. Probably doesn't do photos as well as a photo printer, but pretty darn good none the less. I'm constantly smudging the papers from my inkjet, since the ink is water soluable, and that's why I got the laserjet....
I was initially disappointed in the printer for color text, but after the first few prints it sharpens up dramtically. You won't confuse this printer for a photo printer, but for a basic color printer that won't smudge and prints crisp black text, it's...
The HP Color LaserJet 2600N is my perfect home printer. The price is excellent for the value. The ease of installation and network ready flexibility is fantastic for anyone who needs a reliable, cost effective printer that can handle any of their home or...
I would like to first say a quick reply to Nunya, who seemed to be slightly technophobic. I have been a professional computer technician for over 8 years, and supported Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. I have to be brutally honest with you and tell you that...
Make sure you have the latest firmware loaded in the printer. I purchased the 2600N yesterday and had the 20050307 firmware. Noticed the page counter was showing the same number of pages being printed on ALL toners. Upgraded firmware to 20051208 version...
I guess the way the printer is set up is to ASSUME that you are using the color cartridges on an average basis, regardless of whether they are actually being used or not. Thus, it estimates when the cartridges should run out and when that time comes, you...
You know, on paper, the HP 2600n probably makes no sense - not much memory, one-pass engine (speeds for black and color are the same), expensive replacement cartridges, slow black-only speed, average looks, small & unimpressive LCD display. But.... In...
Easy set up, great print quality. Hooked right up to my home wireless network. Speed is ok but not great. Same speed for b&W as...
Don't be fooled by the 600 x 600 resolution listed. The printer outputs fantastic quality photo prints and (obviously) great text. If you are considering this instead of an inkjet for photos, be warned that a laser printer will only output as good as the...
Sometimes it amazes me at how affordable color laser printers have become, and this HP printer is an excellent example of such a printer. Perfect for home or small business use, it prints professional-looking, crisp color sheets at a decent rate,...
This is probably the cheapest color laser jet you can find. and it does its job...
I have been putting off buying a coloured laser for a long time. I have been waiting for them to come down in price. I was also worried about the quality of pictures (as compared to inkjet printers). However, after trying it out, I loved the quality of...
I purchased this printer because they have one at the school I work at and It works very well for them. I ordered it and it came quickly. It was very easy to set up and it interfaced with my programs with no problems BUT everything that was printing...
I own my own my own business that I run out of my home office. I was in desperate need of a nice color laser printer. I got an amazing deal here on Amazon for this printer ($250 on Amazon, $400 in stores), and it also turned out to be a great product!...
Printer works great over a network although have had difficulty setting it up with Bonjour. It works out cheaper to buy a new printer and throw it away than a complete set of toner! Why don't HP work an exchange system giving a credit for empty toner...
For the few using this 64 bit version of Windows XP the supplied printer drivers do not work and there are no updated drivers available from HP. Also, there is no Vista 64 bit driver yet. The printer itself is great....
I have had this printer for almost a month and am so far thrilled with it. I am on Mac and the set-up was painless and much easier than with the last HP ink jet printer I had. The print quality has been very good and I am printing brochures etc. Of...
see update at end of review ****************** I have had my HP color Laserjet 2600n for about one year. I also have a regular HP monochrome laserjet for the bulk of my printing needs (faster & auto-duplex & lower toner cost), and an Epson color inkjet...
-The laser color is vivid and sharp. -The toner cartridge lasts a long time. I still have half of the ink after one year regular usage. -It does not use drum - good to save money but the printed paper curled. Fortunately, the curling allivated after it...
After owning many monochrome laser printers, I recently bought one of these as my first color laser. Especially for the price, I'm very impressed! As others indicated, this model is not aimed at printing large amounts of color all the time (eg photos),...
The printer itself is great. very high quality and reasonably quick. My only qualm is the cost of replacement cartridges. While all printer ink seems way over priced, HP has taken it to a new extreme. You can actually replace the ENTIRE 2600N for LESS...
We are an all Mac company. We were doing some research about laser printers to quickly replace our all-of-the-sudden dead inkjet. I read all kind of reviews on CNET, Amazon, etc. Very difficult to decide what to get. We did have a budget of around $400...
I love the speed, print quality, and network and Macintosh friendliness of this printer. The colors are vivid, and the blacks are blacker than any of the dozen laser printers I've used previously. The footprint is amazingly small for a color laser, and...
I just installed our new 2600N Laserjet and I am very happy with the purchase. This printer is a steal, if you consider that it is a COLOR laser and comes with a network card built-in. This is the cheapest networked color laser printer on the market that...
I have had this printer for about a year now. Unlike a previous reviewer, I have found no decrease in the color toner when I print the majority of my documents in black and white. I use this printer in a small real estate office and it does a wonderful...
