HP Color LaserJet 2600n Printer (Q6455A#ABA) Reviews
It melted the glossy layer of the paper onto the roller, and I now have a very large doorstop instead of a printer. For the majority of people that's not an issue, but if you're browsing for a low-cost reputable color laser and you DO use Linux, be aware that this one isn't for you. First, in general this has been a great printer, worthy of the venerable HP name. 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 machine. Second, and worst of all: I have fried the fuser roller on mine recently because I - stupidly, perhaps, but understandably - tried to use HP photo-glossy paper in the printer. Now, on to the caveats. I hope these remarks will be helpful to someone.
For a good quality, low cost black-and-white laser printer, I recommend Brother HL-2040 Monochrome Laser Printer. The same PDF document prints fine from a Windows machine, so it has something to do with the Adobe Reader for Mac. Because I can print using Word, I deducted only a half star for this. This particular model comes with full-size color toner cartridges. Sometimes it amazes me at how affordable color laser printers have become, and this HP printer is an excellent example of such a printer.
This is a non-PostScript printer. I can print the same flier from a Word document, but once I convert it to PDF, it loses the font graphics. Drivers are available for Mac OS X and different versions of Windows. Use this as a supplement for times when you need high resolution color that is more colorfast and glossy than an inkjet. If you use a Mac and expect to print a lot of PDF files, you should be aware of this potential problem. Perfect for home or small business use, it prints professional-looking, crisp color sheets at a decent rate, although not as fast as a higher end model should.
I don't recommend this as a solo printer if you print a lot in black-and-white since the cost of toner and the slower speed makes it inefficient for simpler tasks. The only problem I had was printing from a Adobe PDF document on my Mac. The resolution of the printed pages was even better than I had expected. Given the price of replacing them, it adds real value since most printers come with 1/2 full toner. (It takes about 30 seconds from turning the power on to printing the first, full-color page; a ten page job takes approximately 2 1/2 minutes). The display on the front shows how much of each toner remains, a helpful feature if you're about to print a big job.
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.
If you are expecting for this printer to give you professional looking graphic and photo prints, then look somewhere else like the Minoltas; but if you are looking for an awesome document and good looking graphics printer then this is it.
Our office is 100% Mac based.
We don't print a lot since most of our documents are converted to PDF and just after 3 years we are shopping around to replace the original toner that came with the printer.
From day one this printer has been great.
No complaints at all.
Don't forget that even though is HP it works great with any Mac.
Super easy to network with multiple Mac machines through standard 10/100/1000 ethernet router and the reliability has been superb.
We have owned this printer for close to 3 years now.
We switched from inkjet to laser with this machine.
This printer is a primary network printer. Microsoft has no Windows patches to fix this. I have yet to hear from either group. This error is famous as several forums exist to attempt and hack both the Windows spooler and the HP 2600n. However, the pages that managed to print were of the finest quality I've ever seen from a home office printer.
Fought this problem for two solid days with Tech calls, internet chats and promises of return calls with a solution. If using Windows Vista, a Printer Spooler Error occurs. I'm sure it will be the best printer I'll ever own once it works. It has issues when connected directly to one PC. HP has no supporting drivers to fix this.
