4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Printing
This inkjet printer is designed for the home or small office. It uses a USB cable to connect to a computer. You should connect the USB cable from the printer to the computer before you apply power to the printer. It can be used with Windows 98, Me, 2000 and XP. The black inkjet cartridge is the #20, the tricolor inkjet cartridge is the #49. HP does not recommend refilling...

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother getting an Apollo
This printer, really an HP, is terrible! It cannot print envelopes at all and regularly jams. I think HP is not the way to go anymore, as their quaility has deteriorated over the years.

1.0 out of 5 stars NO.....JUST NO!, April 6, 2003

This review is from: Apollo P2600U Inkjet Printer (Office Product)
This is the WORST printer I have EVER owned. If you are considering buying it...you're better off stabbing yourself in the eye. It is NEVER reliable and RARELY works properly. It has to be THE shoddiest printer ever made. Honestly, I only gave it one star because I had no other choice.

This inkjet printer is designed for the home or small office. It uses a USB cable to connect to a computer. You should connect the USB cable from the printer to the computer before you apply power to the printer. It can be used with Windows 98, Me, 2000 and XP. The black inkjet cartridge is the #20, the tricolor inkjet cartridge is the #49. HP does not recommend refilling either cartridge. These cartridges may be hard to find nowadays. This printer works well for the average user. When installing the printer you may have to create a USB Virtual printer port if another printer was previously defined (not for printers connected to a parallel port). If you bought a used printer you can download the printer software and instruction manual.

Be sure to read the warnings in the manual about proper care of inkjet cartridges. Leaving them unused for many months may shorten their useful life. New cartridges have a plastic tape over the nozzles to prevent oxidation of the ink. At one time HP used to sell a container to store cartridges when they were not in use. I do not keep power connected to the printer when it is not in use; heat is the enemy of electronic devices (two surge suppressors).

HP seems to have a policy of "planned obsolescence" in manufacturing new printers that use new inkjet cartridges. After a while it becomes harder to quickly purchase replacement cartridges. This may be due to progress in cartridge design. Like other HP printers the paper path takes a U-turn in printing so the printer uses less desk space.
This printer has a different colored case but seems identical to the HP 656C printer.
