Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Whether printing brochures or spreadsheets, newsletters or business presentations, the HP Color LaserJet 5500 provides high-quality documents while meeting all your time-critical deadlines through in-house printing. Featuring inline printing technology--using a "direct to page" process--the 5500 transfers toner directly to the paper, ensuring exceptional print quality. This technology also supplies a true rarity among printers: you can expect your color pages to print at the same speed as your monochrome documents.

The 600 x 600 dpi resolution guarantees crisp text, while the 96 MB RAM (expandable to 416 MB) and 400 MHz processor churns out these impressive sheets at 21 pages per minute, even when they contain graphics. Flexible paper trays and networking options make this an ideal choice for busy offices, while a clean, simple design and few supplies make for economical, idiot-proof operation. Hewlett-Packard includes a one-year warranty that covers parts and onsite labor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Color LaserJet 5500 HDN review, February 16, 2003
By 
"thedazelguy" (San Antonio, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: HP 5500 Color LaserJet Printer (Office Product)
This printer is amazing. The color LaserJet 5500HDN model comes with (3) 500 sheet trays + a 100 Page multipurpose tray. It comes with a network card,HD,Duplexor and a stand to roll the printer around. It is capable of printing up to 11x17 paper and custom sizes. This printer was very easy to assemble ( less then 10 minutes) and was on the network in seconds. Color matching is superb. It was able to print very demanding documents in short order. It really prints at 21PPM in full color. I printed over 500, full bleed 11x17 prints in just over 3 hours. This is like printing 2000 sheets of 8x11 at a speed of 11.3 PPM. This really tested the printer's endurance and its calibration cycle. It surprised me how easy it was to install the toner cartridges. I haven't experienced a paper jam yet, but if I did, there is a small path to follow to locate jams, and easily remove paper. There aren't 14 secret doors to open to remove paper. It really has done a good job handling the work load I put to it. This is a REALLY good office printer. It has done a tremndously good job on printing corporate logos. This is important because it can handle the most demanding color changes with out banding or stressing. I was surprised at how acurate the images I printed out were, that I had described previously. When I looked at my first document and then looked at the last document, the color accurace was 100% consistant through out it's printing cycle. This printer has been the best performing color laser I have ever used. This has my highest recommendations !

5.0 out of 5 stars Printer Workhorse with Good Color, October 2, 2004
This review is from: HP 5500 Color LaserJet Printer (Office Product)
The HP 5500 is a great tabloid (11x17) printer. Very good speed and color. Have had no problems. Print speed is as advertised. Toner cartridges hold plenty of toner - though they are expensive. Black and white printing is also great.

Machine is rugged. Buttons and trays are well built. LCD infomation screen is readable and easy to understand.

My model has the extra tray and stand with duplexer and network card. I do not have a hard-drive in my model. Memory is ample for printing tabloid size photos, engineering drawings, and documents. Lengthy letter size documents are no problem. Have not had a single time-out. Another HP winner.

5.0 out of 5 stars This blows away other printers...., April 1, 2011
This review is from: HP 5500 Color LaserJet Printer (Office Product)
I have had an HP 5500 Color LaserJet printer for 6 years. There is very little that this printer can not do! Love the ability to print 11 x 17 and wide variety of paper types. The toners are expensive but last a long time. The print quality is superb and the speed makes quick work of any project I have. Large paper tray and easy to access bypass tray. I would keep this printer forever but space and needs are making me look for a multi function printer. This is a great printer for a graphic artist, school, or anyone that demands high quality color printing. You will not be disappointed. Be aware that it is a pretty good sized piece of equipment.HP 5500 Color LaserJet Printer
