4.0 out of 5 stars Good printer, September 13, 2005

This review is from: HP DeskJet 3843 Color Printer (Office Product)

It's a good printer for the price, I think. I like the design (smooth and sleek and doesn't take up too much space on my desk). It prints easily and well, and the paper hasn't jammed at all. My one complaint is how small the ink cartridges are. They run out incredibly quickly. Other than that, I'd have given it 5 stars.
