HP Color LaserJet CP3505n Printer

The HP Color LaserJet CP3505n Printer lets you predict how much it will cost to print things yourself instead of farming them out.

Extras include a Web-based print cost estimator and a driver with print-preview features.

Subpar text quality for a laser. Limited paper handling. A touch slow for the price.

HP Colour LaserJet CP3505dn

HP's Colour LaserJet CP3505dn provides good quality colour laser printing with all the bells and whistles you'll need for a functional workgroup print...

Automatic duplex, Web interface, Digital Imaging configuration, ImageRET 3600 provides good colour and text

Average print speeds, odd paper output placement, slightly costly

Speed aside, the Colour LaserJet CP3505dn has few problems. With good colour, automatic duplex and the functionality to meet the mono and colour printing needs of the standard office, this printer's only problem is the cost of consumables.

HP Color LaserJet CP3505x

It isn't cheap, but plenty of features and top quality propel this printer to the top of the pile

HP - Color LaserJet CP3505x

As with previous models, you won't get fired for buying the new HP Color LaserJet CP3505x. OK, it's not as cheap as some, but it's affordable nonetheless and faster than others in the same price bracket ...

The CP3505x stands out against other colour lasers in its class, thanks mainly to a 21ppm laser engine, capable of printing in colour at the same speed as monochrome. Print quality is excellent too, even on plain paper, plus you get two paper trays, a...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Solid enough, seems to work fine

Toner life is probably better if you aren't doing a lot of full-page art; we print comics that have whole chunks of the page in black. That means that our page cost for black toner is coming out at an average of about five cents a page, up from the one...

I picked this printer for the duplexer and network features, and the built-in PostScript. Print speed is decent. Image quality is pretty good; not as good as the best inkjets, but they don't print 20ppm and render PostScript natively ; The network...

Default memory isn't enough to print high-resolution pictures. I had a spare DIMM sitting around which worked in it, but if you put in a 1GB DIMM, you don't get the 256MB onboard memory. If you need more than 1GB of memory, get a different model ; With...

Best all around printer

I've always found with printers you get what you pay for, I intend to use this machine for the next 5+ years.

Great quality for printing documents and presentations. Very fast and easy to setup on my network. The higher resolution and faster response time over the lower end models is well worth it. Duplexing is nice as well

VERY large printer, and its not cheap

Awesome printer! Great quality!

The only issue I had was MS Win2003 SBS setup as a shared printer. That is a MS issue not a HP issue. Setting every machine to print directly to the printer bypassed the sever glitch.

Good quality and fast compared to Deskjet 932C that it is replacing. Also love the network connectivity (vs shared from computer for USB of 932C). We had an issue of pages getting wet and with an ink jet they will run and smear, with laser jet the...

HEWLETT PACKARD - LASERJET CP3505DN CLR LASER 22PPM 1200X600 USB ENET 384MB DUPL

Great low cost color laser printer.

Great definition, fast printer, quick startup from sleep mode, super sharp. Prints front and back (duplex).

Doesn''t have a separate legal tray, so legal must be loaded manually.
