| User Reviews |  | Mostly great for the initial cost rating: 4
I think it was $39.96 at Walmart. We have used for over a year. Quality is good, speed ok, all-in-all, mechanically speaking, a good buy. HP apparently engineered it to accept only low-capacity, fairly high priced cartridges. A machine at my work is designed to accept the #27 (3740's specified black cart.) AS WELL AS THE #56, just a few dollars more with MUCH MORE INK. You can't win----buy a pretty good copier for little money and give the savings back if you buy the manufacturer's brand of ink. We have always been afraid of the refill/store brand stuff so I can't comment on that method of beating the system.

paper jam rating: 2
Paper jam, every time. It's pretty amazing, this printer can suck in 10 pages at a time, not 1 page at a time, as a printer is suppose to. It jams half way, all the way, one page, two pages, 10 pages. So many variations- just to screw your day.
Don't get it.

Good printer for Home Use rating: 3
It's a good printer for $40! I only use mine at home and maybe print 5-10 pics a month and a few pages of tab's and I've had NO problems!
Now it does go through you ink cartiridges faster than most HP deskjet's I've ever owned, but since I dont print that much it doesn't bother me!
Also it does print SLOW, but just like when burning DVD's the SLOWER the BETTER!!
So Basically, This is a good printer for home use!
Hope this helps!

Cheap, eats ink carts... AVOID IF POSSIBLE rating: 1
Not a bad printer for $39 at Walmart... very good print quality and nice features for a printer in this price range. But it eats ink like crazy. When the cart gets low on a multiple print job you have to do each copy manually which is very inconvenient. I can get only about 20 pages of a full color document before the low ink (color) comes on. These companies that make the cheapo printers know that their dollar is going to come from ink cart sales... $48 for a black cart and color cart at Target! At these prices I'll go broke.

Junk rating: 1
If you're considering this product, consider it no further, it is absolute bollocks. It always jams and the catriges cost almost as much as the printer does. Get a lazer printer and get a good one.
