I have had a hard time printing envelopes - this is after three weeks of daily use of the printer. This is my fourth HP printer in 20 years and I have never had any problems before with envelopes....
update: After owning the printer for several months, I'm happy to report that toner usage is nowhere near as bad as I had initially feared. I've removed those comments. Make sure you find the "black only" option for printing grays. I would update the...
i don't like this printer as much as i liked my 2500 laser printer. there are times when it doesn't print, and i have to go to the software and pause the printing and then resume it. i also don't like the tray for paper underneath. it slides out and...
I bought this printer a couple of years ago when it first came out and have been happy with print quality on the few occassions that I have used it. I recently moved and a bad experience trying to get support for the new driver download. Luckily, I...
I have two of these: One at work, one at home. I've had both for well over a year and a half. Mechanically, and functionally, they have performed great. In fact, I would say that you can't get much better value for what the printer delivers. It has...
I really like the HP 2600n. Quality is very good. Of course, like most laser printers, the toner winds up being very expensive. I do most of my printing on a different printer and save this printer for my color needs. This is the second 2600n printer...
This machine prints great. Takes a while to initialize and does it quite often, so best if you leave it on all the time. Also had a problem with it thinking that it was out of the yellow ink. It was not. Took me skaking the cartridge and taking them...
Laser printers usually use little ink. There is a reason the printer is inexpensive. If you print volume, in the long run, you are better off spending more and getting one that uses less...
Slow printing..goes into initializing phase at any time and takes forever to finish doing whatever it does. This is not good when you are trying to print a job in front of a...
OK, this printer does print exceptionally well. I purchased it to use in pharmacy school. However, in my opinion, it ends up being a very expensive product to maintain. The main problem I have with the printer is that it will not print at all (not even...
Do the math, folks: this printer comes with 2,000 page toner cartridges and runs around three to four hundred bucks. Each toner cartridge (there are 4) costs around eighty bucks so by the time you use 4,000 pages you've added a whopping three hundred...
WTF.......4 hours to set this up!!!!!! I have Win98se and when you go to install and use the setup disk--it says win98 and WinMe not supported....it says-- use add printer and go carnel knowlegde yourself??? very, very unacceptable. just adding a...
First, in general this has been a great printer, worthy of the venerable HP name. Now, on to the caveats. First, this printer is essentially "Windows only." I do not have a Mac but I can tell you that there is no way in the world to get Linux to print to...
This printer is a primary network printer. It has issues when connected directly to one PC. If using Windows Vista, a Printer Spooler Error occurs. HP has no supporting drivers to fix this. Microsoft has no Windows patches to fix this. This error is...
My brother brought his brand spanking new NOT previously opened by human hands 2600N printer home from Best Buy only to find that it was missing all four toner cartridges. Thankfully Best Buy swapped it out for one that came complete from HP. This box...
I migh have a defective printer but this is what I encountered. I want 2 computers to share this printer. I connected one PC via the Ethernet port, everything printed good. I than connected second PC on the USB port, everthing worked great. But the...
This printer will NOT be supported on 64 bit operating systems! I learned this the hard way....
I have burned through all three color ink cartidges after printing B&W documents. I became concerned when I realized that I was at less than half remaining ink after having printed only several dozen color pages. As I was more aware of color use, I...
I've just had to return this printer due to its constant failure to feed paper correctly. The paper either fails to feed up from the tray or jams half-way through printing. This was already a replacement printer for another with similar problems so I...
The machine does all that I require but there is a problem I cannot solve. Excellent machine, but expensive in cost per copy. When marks appear on copies there is a cleaning program in tools, but this fails to clear the marks which are repeated in a...
Prints great if you're printing text and a small graphic on plain paper. Otherwise, not so well. If you're picky about how your printed graphics will look, this isn't the printer for you. I know of 12 Laserjet 2600n all with the same fuser problem, it...
Nice but economically a rip-off. I have the 2500 model & this one. The 2500 did require a $150 drum & the 2600 does not, that is a good thing. However HP has cut the toner capacity in half (2000 vs 4000 page toner capacity, 15 % coverage) &...
Toner Almost Costs More Than the Printer. I was going to buy this printer when I saw it advertised for $319, but I did a bit more research. Each toner cartridge costs about $75 and is only rated for 2000 pages. That means to replace all 4 toner...
Great price good blacks but Slow. Good printer for simple pages with business graphics and tables, but image reproduction is...
Slow, product does not live up to expectations. Printer broke down after one year. Refurbished printer was sent which had several errors and had to be resent. Customer and technical support need improving. HP site not user friendly. Very nice graphics....
Stinks with Labels. Pros: good color Cons: Labels do not work well. Review: When you run the labels through the ink fibers to not catch to the paper and it runs down the page....
Decent For Home Office But Need Patience. Pros: price, design, network card included, excellant B&W print quality Cons: software glitchy, some prints come out a bit hazed, expensive toners, bad toner meter system The Bottom Line: Check out the Dell...
Good printer for personal or small business - when it works! Pros: Good entry price, easy to install and use, fast and good printing for the cost. Cons: Our experience: 2 of 3 printers have serious manufacturing defects, poor customer service. The Bottom...
There are better deals to be had. Pros: Entry-level color laser prints. Cons: Entry-quality color laser prints. expertseries's Full Review: Hewlett Packard LaserJet 2600n Printer After looking for a replacement for an HP OfficeJet and seeing an ad for...
Poor photo quality right out of the box ! Pros: Fast printing, easy setup, available at Costco Cons: Poor photo quality, memory issues, small paper tray, loud and long warmup, price per page The Bottom Line: HP may need to work some kinks out of this...
Prints great but per page cost is too high. Pros: Small, compact, easy networking, good color laser quality Cons: Small expensive cartridges mean high per page costs and more junk to recycle The Bottom Line: If you print a lot, buy a big laser that uses...
HP 2600N - Engineered robbery. Pros: Good quality prints Cons: False empty toner messages rendering the printer non-functioning until the expensive cartridge is replaced The Bottom Line: Smart chips are smart for HP only, look for another company which...
