Avoid this printer at all costs!

Date of Review:  Jun 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you must, only purchase from a HP rep. It may help with service. If you intend to print much, this printer will eat you out of house and home.
Review: Our recent experience with HP has been shockingly bad. For those not familiar with us, we are a small print shop in Downtown McKinney. We purchased the HP 2810 about 5 months prior to this incident to print stationary as part of our business. My...

Good Printer, bad software

Date of Review:  Oct 18, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you don't need a scanner, this is a robust printer and fax, but the toner is expensive.
Review: This printer is like most HP equipment, well built and solid.

All functions work pretty well, but color printing is slower than quoted and it is noisy. Having a machine that does printing, copying, faxing and scanning is great, in theory,...

Not Recommended - Too Many Bugs

Date of Review:  Mar 15, 2008
The Bottom Line: Not recommended: critical bugs and poor color-printing quality.
Review: I do not recommend this product. I encountered too many critical bugs. Many forums suggest this is a Vista OS compatibility issue.

My system: Dell XPS laptop, Windows Vista (32-bit) OS, wireless network. No problems with my previous laser...

HP 2840 All-In-One.... One Year Review...mixed

Date of Review:  May 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great print quality, but expensive ink & imaging drum. Good for single printer use, but software fails with multiple models.
Review: We purchased this model for one of our branch offices a year ago. I set it up as a network install, and the physical installation of the machine was easy. If you have read any of my other reviews, I try not to get into every function, like a manual...

Satisfactory

Date of Review:  Mar 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: Good but there are better choices
Review: I bought this all-in-one for my home office as I have large volume of printing for several types of businesses I run. Not that it's slow, but it doesn't print as fast I thought it would. It also often "callibrates" out of the blue which is somewhat...

DONT buy this printer

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2006
Review: it looks good and does print wonderfully. HOWEVER, it calibrates for no good reason all the time, prints , then pauses for oh 3 or 4 minutes, it basically just sucks.

We are on our 3rd printer (they had to send us two replacements) because...

Horrible Color Printing!!

Date of Review:  Oct 3, 2006
The Bottom Line: Avoid It Unless You're Color Blind!!!
Review: I bought this to try to consolidate and update all of my office equipment (color laser / fax / B&W laser / scanner). After owning a Konica Minolta 2300W and being pleased with its color printing, if not totally pleased with the machine overall, I...

Don't buy it

Date of Review:  Feb 29, 2008
The Bottom Line: look elsewhere.
Review: One of the big reasons I bought this printer was because it allowed me to copy a document into an email or folder as a pdf right from the printer. This function occassionally, doesn't work at random times, and wastes more time than it was supposed...

HP 2840 Horrendous toner, drum costs

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2008
The Bottom Line: Consumables will bankrupt you.
Review: I'm a HP fan. I currently have two HP 3380 All In One's Black Print. I decided to go to colour and chose the 2840 to print out certain insurance brochures and documents. The print outs were great. Re-calibration was irritating. One review mentions...

Not For Large Volume

Date of Review:  Jan 28, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would look at other machines which are made by companies with better quality products.
Review: We bought the HP 2840 all-in-one color laser about a year and half ago for a small office, and while the quality of copies and printing has remained good, it eventually succumbed to the Hewlett-Packard curse of an unsolvable problem.
It...
