This printer is excellent value. Cost is low and it performs the basic business tasks. I haven't tried graphics, so don't know how they will look.

I did have a slight bit of trouble with setup, because the instructions are purely graphical and in one step the level of detail is insufficient. Figured it out before breaking something, though, and it's working fine.

I've only had this printer for a few weeks so haven't put it through all its paces, yet, but I did have some trouble printing envelopes. Between the non-Office software instructions and the printer instructions, which contradict each other, I finally figured it out, but wasted a number of envelopes the first time. Would like it better if there was a straight-through feed so the envelopes wouldn't develop a curl; not very professional.

Another drawback is the published maximum of 6 feet for a USB cable. I want the printer on my credenza, with the laptop on my desk, and 6 feet is stretching the distance. Would also be nice if the required cable was listed on the printer box, so it could be purchased at the same time.

Tray capacity is supposedly 260 sheets, so it should hold half a ream. I've split a ream perfectly in half, though, and the 250 sheets don't quite fit. This is 20 pound paper, which is what the spec is for, so don't know what the deal is there.

The power-saving feature is great, but the printer turns itself off too soon for my liking and I haven't yet found a way to adjust the timing. If it exists, then this is a comment on the documentation. If it doesn't, then it's a comment on the printer design.

I haven't used the printer long enough to get a really good idea, but it seems to be using toner a little more quickly than I expected. However, I'm printing dense documents (best example is IRS publications), which may use more toner than the standard test page -- whatever that may be. Your mileage may vary!

I'm used to working with larger printers, so my expectations for this one were low. It does exceed all my expectations, so I'm happy with it. It's quite fast, even in duplex mode. I recommend it for light duty offices, but if you do a LOT of printing you might consider a printer in the next higher level or two.

While I like this printer a lot, found it very easy to set up, I have yet to figure out how to print an envelope with it. Most of the time it simply puts the envelope through the printer without printing anything. On the few occasions when I did manage to get it to print - don't ask me how I did it - the printed material was much smaller than I had specified. The manual is not at all helpful in resolving this problem. I wish I had my old 4L laser printer back. It was terrific for about 19 years.

Comments about HP� LaserJet Pro P1606DN Printer:

I mostly like this printer, it is fast for the price and does duplex printing automatically. It seldom jams and is a good tool. I use it for both personal use and a home-based business. On the down side it is not as well made as the other HP products I have owned or used. My cat broke the paper tray trying to look at the duplex printing. A tiny piece broke off the cartridge cover and it does not recognize that a new cartridge was installed. The plastic used in the construction is a more brittle hard plastic than that used on my old printer with few metal parts for high use areas. My old printer was also an HP LaserJet which worked fine for over 10 years and still worked when I replaced it — only for the duplex feature. As I have said I have had two parts break in the year and a half I have had the P1606dn and no replacement parts are available. What good is Energy Star when it needs to be replaced for minor problems and sit in a landfill?

Comments about HP� LaserJet Pro P1606DN Printer:

Unfortunately, I had to return this very fine product. It is not wireless, but will connect to a Network. I have tired of some many wires and wanted a unit easily accessible to my devices.

The print quality was excellent, and the speed? Super fast printing. It gets hot on the back top portion of the printer, and you may see steam coming off it as well.

I liked the printer, and if I wasn't concened about a USB connection, I would have kept it.

- A:
  According to the manual you can do the following:
  â— If toner smears appear on the leading edge of the media, the media guides might need to be wiped with a dry, lint-free cloth.
  â— Try a different quality paper with 4 to 6% moisture content, possibly a 100 or 250 Sheffield paper.
  â— If the fuser temperature is too low, make sure the appropriate media type is selected in your printer properties
  â— Test again by running another printout in quiet mode. You do this by opening the printer properties, click on "Device Settings Tab" and then enable Quiet Mode.
  â— Suggest installing a new cartridge.
