Thorn In My Side

 

I’m not a big fan of any of HP’s 900 series printers. I hope to find time to look at each one individually, but I’m starting with the worst: the 940. I could understand a lemon in the group, but of the 10 I have, all of them, except maybe a...

cheap, good picture quality, decent speed

no available parts, has caused me many problems

HP Deskjet 940c -- good price, decent overall

 

I've had the HP Deskjet 940c for about 16 months, and I've found it to be a pretty good printer. At around $125 the price was very good for when I bought it. It's print speed is pretty fast, especially if you set the quality at normal, or even ...

relatively cheap, fast, simple to figure out

eats through ink, small paper tray, double-sided printing

Good deal

 

The HP deskjet 940c was reasonably priced and delivers a great performance. The printing quality is truly amazing. The printer is incredibly idiot proof, and always works as it is supposed to. I have never had a problem with the printer, as I have had...

Easy to use, nice looking appearance, small size, prints beautifully, excellent price

Not particularly good for printing out 4x6 or other normal photo sized prints

Do yourself a favor - DON'T BUY THIS PRINTER!!!!!!!

 

I swear those other opinions had to have been written by HP employees! This is the worst printer I've ever bought and i've bought several (even my original printer was a HP and I thought it was great!) - I bought this at Staples for my husband because...

good looking

This printer is the worst printer I've ever bought

Bye Bye Epson

 

Last time I reviewed a Espon printer. I thought it was a good printer. However, the more or the longer I used it, the more annoying it becomes. Anyway, I will compare hp with Espon later.

Nice, Fast

Great printer for the home user

 

Well I haven't had this particular printer for very long, but for the time that I have had it, it has been a great printer. I have owned other HP printers, and would prefer them over any other kind. HP has always been a great printer maker and they...

Easy setup, fast printing, quiet printing, cartridges easy to change

Instructions almost non existent

A printer for the techno-phobic computer moron

 

I am what is known as a computer moron. I graduated from the Sergeant Schultz School of Computer Information, its motto is “I know nothing! NOTHING!” Frankly, I don't want to know anything much either. My brain is so full of stuff that I need to...

Easy to use, prints well

A dream that's replaced a total nightmare!

 

For a little background on why I decided to buy this printer, please see the link below to my review of HP's DeskJet 890C. That will give you a glimpse of what motivated me to make this purchase.

Affordable performance. Easy installation. Bang-for-buck

Ink is expensive, but that's not the printer's fault...oh wait, its an HP

940c - Perfect Balance of Price and Function

 

For a 20 something college student money isn't always as plentiful as one would like. So, when my old Epson shut down on me for the third and final time, I was not excited. Yes, it was loud (my boyfriend would not let me print after 11 PM unless is...

Buyers beware!

 

This is about the 4th generation of HP printers that I've owned. The reason I keep going back to HP is because of their past track record. So when I bought the 940C, I was expecting the same level of performance and quality. All in all, I am...

Inexpensive, great text quality

Did not print photos!! 3 month warranty, no toll free tech support
