Good Printer for Families, Too
599403
I ordered this printer a couple of months ago, to replace an aging HP printer, the ink for which was getting more and more expensive. We are a larger-than-normal family with more printing needs than most, and I wanted a printer that was faster and cheaper to run. I read a lot of reviews before buying this printer. I wasn't sure I wanted something as large as this, but the price was reasonable, and the reviews claimed that the ink lasted a long time.
  I have to say, the reviews were correct, by and large. It is phenomenal how many black-and-white pages this thing can print without running out of ink. (I've barely dented the color ink.) I printed the double-sided pages for five cookbooks and used only a third of it. A month later, I still have one-third of the cartridge left.
  The printer is chunky, and it does take up a good amount of space--it's about twice as tall as most printers, and a couple inches deeper. We have a little side-table dedicated just to the printer. It holds more than half a ream of paper in its drawer, though, so you don't need much spare paper storage. It can whip off single-sided pages very quickly, and it almost never misfeeds. It does a nice job with double-sided printing, although that takes about four times as long.
  Someone observed that the printing is not as crisp as with some of the HP photo printers. The difference is minimal, but it's true that the definition is not quite as good. If you're looking for awesome photo definition, this probably isn't the printer for you. Still, it's fine for everyday picture, graph, and text printing.
  One last comment: I read that some people have had trouble with card stock. I have printed on card stock a couple of times, and had no trouble. The card stock I've been using is standard, Wal-Mart weight card stock. I haven't tried anything heavier.
  Our family has been very satisfied with this printer.

We've owned this printer for about 2.5 months and printed 890 pages to date and I have to say this is a great printer!

Pros:

- It was relatively inexpensive up front

- Toner cartridges promise to be the same (7000 page cartridge for about $75)

- Duplexer equipped to save paper and time

- Network capable (which allows us to print from anywhere in the house)

- Fast output

- Good software that allows several printing options

- Small footprint design

- Memory expandable

- Bulk paper tray expandable

Cons:

The printer is a little noisy but that doesn't bother us, it is not that much louder than an inkjet at full bore.  The hardest part was getting my firewalls to accept the new device, but that is not the printers fault.

I bought this for my wife who is taking classes that require a horrendous amount of printing.  After going through several ink cartridges, I decided to take the plunge, and thank goodness, we love this printer!

Great printer. I love it so much that I convinced other members of our family to buy it as well and it works just as great for them.

The printer has been performing very well for us. Once set up on our Wi-Fi (which required entering our network password directly into the printer menu), it became accessible from our desktop computers (Windows & Mac) and our iPhones without hassle. I ordered this from Amazon Warehouse Deals at an astoundingly good price; it was listed as "Like New," so I did not know if it would come with the starter toner, but took a gamble anyway. I'm happy to report that it came with the starter toner (and it seemed as if the printer had never even been taken out of the box).

We use this printer for very light home office use, and it seems perfect for that. The tray is small enough that I wouldn't advise using this for heavy-duty tasks or anything other than a very small office. The print speed and vibrancy of the ink are definitely more than acceptable for home use.

We bought this printer to replace another Canon printer (Canon PIXMA MG5320) that was less than 2 years old. I was hesitant to purchase another Canon after the first one seemed a bit sub-par for such a big brand name. We had trouble keeping the first one connected to our wi-fi network. It was also incredibly slow in response to print requests. This one was a decent price and had all the features we needed, including AirPrint, which our old Canon did not have. Printer arrived on time via Prime shipping. My husband did most of the unpacking and set up. There were no issues connecting to our network and it was showing up on our computers and iPads immediately. We've had it for a few months now and haven't had any of the same issues of the first Canon (perhaps we just got a dud?). This printer is quick to wake up and respond to requests. We've utilized the copy and scan features as well. Scanning is very easy. You choose where you want the file sent and it's there immediately after scanning finishes. We have no need for the fax function, so I can't say how well that works. We also haven't tried printing pictures. It's a feature we may or may not use in the future. AirPrint is super easy. The iPads pick up on it when we need to print from them. No additional software or downloads needed. It works well for us in a basic household/home office printing capacity and for less than $100, seems like a decent deal. We also researched ink replacements before buying and because this one only requires a black and a color cartridge, it makes the replacements cheaper than the individual colors we had in the previous printer. The only con I can come up with is that the menu screen on the printer is relatively small, especially compared to our previous model. But if you're ok with a couple extra button pushes to find what you're looking for, it's really not a big deal.

I went back and checked, and realized I purchased this item over two years ago (October 2009). This printer has handled printing out several copies of books, numerous short story submissions, and a variety of other text-intensive works. We've never had any problems with it, and it sits on top of our filing cabinet and hasn't once had a problem. Normally it's in low-power mode, and I forget it's even on. Printing can be a bit noisy, but you get used to that when you've got loud gaming machines in the same room. We're about to order our third ink cartridge for our device since we've owned it. Like most printers, I wouldn't recommend purchasing an off-brand toner replacement, unless you're willing to have smudging ink on your papers.

For me, I need professional copies for potential publications and draft review. Having a copy machine and scanner is handy too for class preparation or for keeping track of receipts. This little baby hasn't once given up on me even though I've thrown a huge workload at it. Now where's some wood I can knock on?

I bought this printer to replace a Canon multi-function laser, mostly for my wife.  So far, it has proven to be a reliable workhorse.  While the Canon would require a reset (power cycle) on every 3rd or 4th print job, this HP has never yet needed a reset.  The same types of print jobs were being handled by each printer - MS Office docs, PDF files, and Web pages, for the most part, along with occasional check from QuickBooks.  The Canon would have a problem anytime the print area of a doc exceeded the printer's capabilities (e.g., less than 1/2 inch margins).  The HP takes those kinds of challenges in stride.  No one makes better Windows print drivers than HP.  Since the Canon was connected to our wireless network through a print server, troubleshooting was always complicated.  With the HP connected directly to the wired network, not only does it start printing faster, but it has yet to lose a print job.  As the lead tech support specialist for my house, I truly appreciate how resilient this printer is in dealing with whatever is sent to it, as well as how reliably it prints.  It has made my life quite a bit simpler.  My wife has come to me and said, "Have I told you how much I love this printer?"  Setup was a breeze and was completed in 10 minutes on multiple computers. I've found (and ordered on Amazon) replacement knock-off cartridges for about $25, so consumable costs are low. As has been noted in other reviews, the printer is loud when operating (especially the first page - which prints incredibly fast), but goes back to sleep in 30 seconds or so.  I've solved the noise problem by locating the printer in a credenza with doors.  The sleep feature is great, since it feels like it uses less power than the Canon. If you are looking for a super-compatible, networked laser printer, you can't go wrong with the P2035N.

This is a good printer which does what we need it to do with little fuss. The only downside is that the users manual and included software CD are not exactly world class. I was able to figure everything out, but compared to the best of modern electronics products these fell short.

That said, I plan to buy another one of these printers when we open our third toy store location because it gets the job done with minimal fuss and at a very good price. Comparable printers from Epson or Star seem to be more expensive.

I have been very happy with this printer. I am a rather minimal user, but for my basic needs of occasional printing, scanning, and photo printing, I've had no problems. Setup was easy and quick, wireless has been "hook up and forget", printing is quick and good quality, especially the photos, for which I'll have no need to go to any photo printing place. I like the compactness of the printer - it folds up when not in use (which is often for me) and even when running it doesn't need much extra space or weird feed trays sticking far out. I've had for about a year now and it's been going great.

The HP OJ 7610 is a wireless color printer that scans and sends faxes.  This is my second wireless multifunction printer and these things are awesome.  Not having cables is so much better, especially since I can now put the printer away from my computer as I rarely print anything anymore.  Many printers print, scan, and sends faxes, but the wireless feature I have found is one of the most useful features out there.

Printing, scanning, and faxing are fairly simple to implement.  The print quality is great, at least for my purposes.  The colors of the printouts are vibrant for regular-people use.

The one thing I was shocked with when I got the printer is how big and heavy it was.  Since I've had several of these similar printers, I didn't realize that this printer was going to come in a much larger box as well as for this printer to be much heavier.  Certainly the HP OJ 7610 seems a lot more heavy duty than my last Brother wireless printer, but I only time will tell if that will hold up.

Overall, the HP OJ 7610 is pretty good wireless multifunction printer.  The reason why I gave it four stars is for my purposes, which is for occasional printing of documents, faxing, and scanning, there are other printers out there for around half the price.

This all in one printer is fairly easy to use.  It is a little noisy when it's calibrating and starting up, but the noise doesn't bother me much because I got a pretty good deal for it.  I use it for occasional printing of documents, photos, and some scanning.  Like I said before, it is great for home use.  I probably wouldn't recommend it for home offices or businesses.

I would give this printer five stars, but sometimes it sleeps so deeply that it doesn't react when called upon.  This problem may actually be a network problem, but I never have this problem with any of the other devices connected to my network, even the wireless devices.
The ink isn't all that expensive, considering the price of ink for some of the other printers in this price range.  It has multiple cartridges for the different colors and black.  The black cartridge is twice the size of the other cartridges, which is a good thing since most document printing is done in black and white.
Overall though, it is a good printer.  It has printed everything I've needed it to.  Probably the best part is the ability to print from our wireless devices.  This is a good feature considering the amount  of computing done from my tablet these days.
I haven't used the fax function yet, as it is pretty much a dying technology,  but it's nice to know you've got it in case you need it.

I purchased the Epson WorkForce WF-2760 printer for use by my wife and I as a home printer, mainly for photos and color worksheets for our son.  The goal was to get something that was very simple to use by my wife, and that could be located in the closet next to my larger laser printer which will handle the bulk of our black and white printing needs.

Included in the box were the printer (packed nicely with tape to hold all flaps / drawers / covers closed), a simple power cord (around 6 feet long), an instruction packet with driver CDs and four ink cartridges.  While other reviewers have claimed these are full sized cartridges (as it is usually customary for manufacturers to cut costs and ship with almost empty introductory cartridges), my cartridges clearly say "Introductory Cartridge" right on them.  However, so far we've printed around 10 full sized color photos, and they all state that they are full, so perhaps they are fully filled.  The box includes no sample photo paper as some other printers have in the past.

Installation was very simple. The touch screen on the printer itself walks you through each step. I declined to setup faxing as we don't have a landline phone to our house and will never make use of this feature.  It was also simple to setup wireless networking and it found my home network quickly and connected without an issue.  Upon completion, you can print a network connection report, which also lists the current IP address to use to connect to the web interface and setup other features such as Apple AirPrint and Google Cloud Print.  Both of these were simple to setup and work great, both on my wife's iPhone and my Google Nexus 6 Android device.  Overall, I have no complaints with the setup process.

I then moved on to configuring my wife's MacBook Pro and my Windows 10 machine.  My windows machine found the printer on the network automatically, and the MacBook, when asked, found and installed the drivers.  I never had to download anything extra, and both computers were able to print immediately.

Overall, print quality is really good.  We were using plain copy paper at first which yielded rather impressive photos, all things considered.  Switching to some older photo paper we had laying around produced vary high quality prints.  While I haven't researched whether or not there are archival quality ink cartridges for this printer, for everyday printing needs, this printer is more than sufficient.

Pros:
- Works with AirPrint (allowing my wife to print photos right from her iPhone) and Google Cloud Print
- Simple operation and installation
- Good quality printing
- Ink cartridges seem to be well priced, and high capacity versions are available.

Cons:
- It's really quite a loud printer.  While ours will be living in a closet, it would be pretty annoying if it were on the desk next to me or in a small office environment.
- There is no dedicated photo paper feeder.  Not a major issue, but AirPrint will only print on the size paper loaded.  Which means, if you want to print 4x6 photos, you have to switch to this size paper in the printer so it reports that size to the Apple device. This is a limitation of AirPrint, but having a separate photo paper feeder I believe would help with this.

Overall, I'd give this printer about 4.25 stars.

The printer works nicely.  It took a little effort to set up and learn some of the features, and I love the printing by Wi-Fi, which means 1 less cable (USB) connection into my PC.  Scanning was easy with a choice of putting the original on the platen or putting multiple copies into the document feeder. My only minor complaint is that it's a little on the noisy side and the footprint is a little on the large size (but I guess that's normal for a multi-purpose printer).  Cost was about $100 which is very reasonable.  It also does faxes, but I didn't set that up.  As for print cartridges, Amazon has some NON-Canon cartridges that are very inexpensive with pretty positive user reviews --> http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CUTZTDW?ref_=pe_850170_146391390_em_1p_0_ti&redirect=true&pldnSite=1

We've had this printer for a few months now, and we all just love it.  There are a few things it can't do, which most people probably wouldn't do anyway and we can work around.  For instance, if you want to print borderless or multiple pages per sheet, you can't set it to automatically print double sided.  It's no big deal when printing a stack of paper to turn it over to print the other side.  But, for normal printing of 2 sided for a single document, it goes amazingly fast and does a great job.

My husband is scanning a huge pile of thesis work onto the computer, for which the document feeder is working wonderfully.  I particularly like hitting print from my living room laptop and having the printout done by the time I walk to the computer room.

If you are printing pictures, you will want to set the quality settings on high.  The first picture I printed I did not do this and it had a few lines on the photo.  But, all of the pictures I have printed on high quality have come out very good.  I also love that the ink doesn't smear.  I have never seen another ink that you can get damp and it doesn't run all over (other than lazer ink).  I was concerned when I saw some reviews state that you are supposed to use Epson papers for photo printing, then I realized I had been buying Epson paper for the last couple of years and that was what I had in my drawers because I liked it best.

So far, I would definitely buy this printer again.

We've had this printer for 6 or so years....it's amazing.  It's networked in to our neighborhood(our neighbors are all pretty much relatives) and it's been flawless.  I am amazed so many folks have had so many problems.  It may not be the fastest, but a great value for what it is.
