5.0 out of 5 stars Great printer, not for cover stock., May 16, 2007

This review is from: HP Color LaserJet 1600 Printer (CB373A#ABA) (Office Product)

Just got this and it prints great on the 28lb paper that I use for 2 sided printing. It can be set for 2 sided printing but I find it easier to leave settings on default. Will not print on 110# index paper (jams) but will print on the HP 75# cover stock one at a time. If you try to print several copies of a cover, ink will begin to smear. I use my old ink jet if I need more than 1 cover or if I need to print on 110# stock.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for Color LaserPrints at Home, December 23, 2007

This review is from: HP Color LaserJet 1600 Printer (CB373A#ABA) (Office Product)

I am writing this review, while the HP 1600 is running the second side of our annual holiday letter - in full color of a photo of hummingbirds while peach-picking at Masumoto's Family Farm in California.

The HP prints fast, crisp (offers a draft 600dpi or a full-on 2400dpi) and reliably. No jams and no blurring. This rivals the office laser printers at work, but unfortunately doesn't automatically do double-sided.

Yes, the ink refills are expensive, but it's a color laser printer! I haven't yet had to replace them a second time, so can't judge if the full cartridges are efficient or not.

However, I would like to recommend to HP and all other printer companies, please include FULL cartridges with all your printers. We are springing for the full package here, so let us print away on full (I also hate it when car companies don't give you a full tank to start either).

Happy holidays everyone!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ships with half-full ink tanks, buy the 2600n instead, May 15, 2008

This review is from: HP Color LaserJet 1600 Printer (CB373A#ABA) (Office Product)

At the time that I shopped for the 1600, I discovered that it came with 4 half-full toner cartridges, and the 2600n, which has an Ethernet port, came with full tanks. This made it worthwhile to buy the 2600n instead.
