| User Reviews |  | Great Printer

This is a great printer. It is a little slower in printing the page than I thought it would be. But it is solid as a rock. No trouble so far.

Very Pleased
rating: 4
I'm a history buff so I print out multi-colored pages of text and photos, B&W as well as color. This printer does a good job, spits out the pages quickly, with good tonation. I like the B&W photos, with an excellent gray scale. HP makes good printers (although Canon & Kodak seem to have a good reputation amongst computer people). It's very quiet and starts printing almost immediately. (My old RX500 used to resentfully groan whenever I told it to print.) It sets up with a CD, very easy to do. The price is quite nice for the quality. Because it's an ink jet printer, I give it 4 stars.

To install driver only -
rating: 5
Many people like myself don't want to install the huge 250MB HP driver/software/bloatware bundle. And others have had problems with it. Happily I found you can download only the driver, without the software, on this HP page:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=bi-39216-2&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=467980&os=228
Note that the date on this basic driver is April 2006 but that is also the date on the latest full featured 6940 driver on the HP site.
As a basic printer for documents and various home printing chores I give this 5 stars. And I like the flat top to stack papers on. BUT I don't print photos with it so I can't comment on that.
But I hope this driver-only link will be helpful. Make sure to follow the instructions.

Great printer

A wonderful printer. Setup was easy and fast. Prints with good color and resolution. A little work horse.

HP 6940
rating: 5
The HP 6940 printer appears to be a worthy successor to my HP 722 that gave 10 years of outstanding service. The 6940 is much faster, of course, and easily handles a wide variety of print jobs such as labels and card stock. The print quality is excellent. Considering the modest cost, this machine is a good investment.
