HP LaserJet 3030

Pros: Excellent, fast, great printer/scanner/fax machine.

Cons: When printing 30 or more pages at a time, some condensation develops.

The Bottom Line: The bottom line is that HP is a trustworthy printer and you get what you pay for!

Review: The HP 3030 laser printer/scanner/fax machine gets the job done fast and professionally! I bought this laser printer because my Brother printer/scanner/fax was a BIG MISTAKE. I recently started my own transcription business at home and needed to get a ...

Pros: Small footprint, ease of use once setup.

Cons: Print quality for long runs.

Review: I find myself thinking, and telling others how much I like this printer. I have had a 4L, 5P, 1100 (I hated the 1100) and others. This was on sale last year at office supply store so we tried it and couldn't be happier. The software interface is easy and ...

Pros: Print, fax, copy and scan. Small footprint.

Cons: Tech aspect was a nightmare. Patience and knowledge of installing / uninstalling programs necessary.

The Bottom Line: It's not "plug and play" easy but it does the job once it's installed.

Review: I was looking for a device to use in my home office that would perform printing, faxing, copying, and scanning. I had previously owned a HP Officejet d145 but did not like it for two reasons. First, I was going through ink pretty fast and the cartridges ...

Pros: Printer and copier work fine. Send fax is OK. Sheet feeder works well.

Cons: Receiving faxes feature is terrible.

Review: This printer is barely tolerable. The printer and copy functions work but the PC fax is a disappointment. The scanner is fairly low resolution but will probably be OK for OCR work. You occasionally have to turn the printer off and back on to get a ...

Pros: Got 700 you don't need? Here's an easy way to get rid of it.

Cons: Web-based software interface simply does not work and support is non-existent.

The Bottom Line: Skip it. Poor browser-based software, extremely limited support, and horrible documentation.

Review: I just spent over three hours with a neighbor trying to set up this beast for faxing. We never succeeded in even importing addresses into the fax phonebook. It only supports three import formats and even does not make available a utility to import ...

Pros: Cant think of any

Cons: Slow, jams, small memory, a waste of money

Review: My client ordered about 100 of these for their retail stores and not only is the machine expensive but it has a really small memory for faxing and can only hold a few pages at superfine resolution. Its slow at faxing too and the feeder doesnt work too ...

Pros: It looks pretty

Cons: The software on the disk is useless

Review: I have now spent 13 hours trying to set up this dog of a piece of equipment. While it will print and copy, it will not scan nor accept the software on its own disk to do this. Perhaps some phone support will help, but the HP web site is about as bad ...

Pros: nice door stop

Cons: If this were a car it would be a lemon.

Review: This device is useful if you don't want to scan. If you do, forget it. I have not had the scanner work for over 3 months now and after formatting my hard drive and reinstalling windows and the HP device drivers so there could be no software conflict, and ...
