Amazon.com Review
Hewlett-Packard's OfficeJet T45 is a solid mainstream multifunction ideal for home office users. This affordable model combines 600 x 300 dpi color ink-jet printing, 300 x 300 dpi 24-bit color scanning, faxing, and color copying capabilities. With a small footprint, simple setup, and easy-to-use software bundle, the T45 is an excellent solution for small businesses. Plus, it's designed for a strong duty cycle of 3,000 printed pages per month.
Opening the unit's top cover causes the print carriage to automatically position itself for cartridge loading. The unit takes separate color and ink cartridges, which snap in easily. The software CD provided us a well-integrated interface for both learning about the product and installing the software bundle. The T45 ships with I.R.I.S. optical character recognition software and Q & A PhotoRecall Deluxe image-editing software.
When a page is inserted into the input tray of the T45, the HP OfficeJet Manager is automatically launched to assist you in faxing, copying, scanning, or e-mailing the document. While this utility certainly helps to make the machine easy to use, we found many operations are much faster when done directly through the unit's console versus through the PC.
The T45 uses a parallel connection to connect to your PC and a phone line to provide fax functions. We set up the T45 in just a few minutes. We copied a standard black and white page in 35 seconds locally, but it took a minute and twenty seconds when copied through the Manager program. Color copies took a minute and fifteen seconds through the console and three minutes using the Manager. The speed difference is due to the fact that, when operating from the Manger, the T45 scans pages before printing the copies.
Our 10-page plain-text document averaged 3 ppm when printed in normal mode, a bit below the unit's rated 5 ppm. We also scanned 4-by-6-inch photos in a snappy 25 seconds each.
The T45 produces good performance suitable for most environments. The output quality is also right on the mark for units at this price. We were impressed with the unit's control panel, which features a numeric keypad and LCD panel, as well as prominent fax, copying, and scanning buttons. Separate color and black copy buttons reduces the need to switch settings between jobs.
The HP OfficeJet T45 is a great way to get all of your input and output needs met on a budget. Backed by HP's excellent reputation and mature technology, the T45 is a reliable companion. --Stephen W. Plain

Wallpaper match,
By James W. Snead (La Porte, TX (near Houston)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hewlett Packard OfficeJet T45 Multifunction Device (Office Product)
We were up and running with the OficeJet T45 in just a few minutes. To test, we scanned pictures of my new grandson and e-mailed them, printed them, and faxed them. All successful. Then my wife, looking for wallpaper, found a match to our current wallpaper, printed a sample, and we found it was a dead-on match when we held it up against the wall. Wow! We were impressed.

Compact, exceptionally easy setup, fast color printing, fax, copy and scan.I also have the big all-in-one with the flat-bed scanner and the T-45 is my favorite because it is so easy to use. The big boy (R80 multi-function, I think) is a better scanner if you're looking for very high quality but for all other uses the T-45 is much the better choice.
