Used to think highly of HP as a company; this Laserjet has changed my previously high regard. Doesn't work on office network; had to pay extra money to IT to make the printer work on the network. Waste of money; machine constantly is "initializing...", interrupting available print time, which takes too long once it starts. Color cartridges are outrageously expensive. Wish I'd sent this thing back the first day. Will buy Brother next time. HP Color LaserJet 2840 All-in-One Printer/Copier/Scanner/Fax (Q3950A#ABA)

Don't do it. I have one and it doesn't do half the things they claim. And HP just discontinued the printer and shipped the support over seas.

Good print quality & paper feed. Overall the hardware is good, except for being VERY NOISY. The software is problematic in every respect. The installation CD can make your PC crash it is so big and tempermental. A total resource hog. The consumables are very expensive considering their built in short life. And don't even think about using a HP "compatible" cartridge or drum. If the sensors sense anything other than genuine HP they will shut you down. I have owned many excellent HP printers in the past. But not one in the past 3 years has been decent. I mu$t move on. HP was the quality standard forever. It is sad to see them fail.
