Printer was working perfectly until yesterday with no problems at all. I was printing business papers with pictures to send to customers and text and pictures came out with faded streaks across. I have no idea why this is happening and need a remedy as soon as I can get one.
Thanks.

HP LaserJet 5550 ? High Output Color Laser Office Printer
You would have to be willing to charge a few thousand dollars to the company account but, if that was an option, your business could own one of the finest pieces of color laser technology on the market, the HP LaserJet 5550. With a beefed up processor allowing impressive color print speeds, matched with a maximum monthly duty cycle designed for high volume, this unit can have your small office printing quality color media in large quantities.
A print speed of up to 27 pages per minute for both black and white and color make the HP LaserJet 5550 stand out as one of the fastest color laser printers in its category. Expandability options and a 120,000 page maximum monthly duty cycle further solidify the unit’s position as a powerful, but user friendly device.
The only notable drawback of the HP LaserJet 5550, other than the extremely high price tag, is its print resolution limitations. Unfortunately, only a 600 x 600 dot per inch quality can be obtained for monochrome or color, which severely limits the device’s usefulness concerning color photo printing or even high resolution graphics. If color prints are to be used primarily to add flair and a professional feel to charts or graphs, this should pose no problem.
The unit’s recommended duty cycle is also much lower than its stated maximum, with HP suggesting only 2,500 to 10,000 pages of use per month. These are still quite high marks, especially for a color laser device, and even when usage runs above this recommendation, HP’s one year limited warranty still applies. HP also includes a year of on site service and phone and internet based technical support to ensure the maximum lifespan of this sizable investment.
A first page out time of 16 seconds runs a little on the slow side for a unit of the HP LaserJet 5550’s caliber, but is still within acceptable parameters. Memory options are also entirely acceptable with 160 MBs of RAM coming standard on most versions (the HP LaserJet 5550dtn comes with 288) and a maximum of 512 MBs of DDR SDRAM achievable via additional memory cards. With 32 MBs of on board memory, the HP LaserJet 5550 tops out with a 544 MBs potential memory total.
The base model and networking model HP LaserJet 5550 come equipped with 2 standard paper trays: a 500 sheet legal sized tray as well as a 100 sheet priority feed fold out tray. Additional 500 sheet trays can be purchased, and are included with some variations of the hardware, for a grand total of 2,100 sheets of potential paper storage. An output tray with 250 sheets of storage is included, and not expandable.
With a variety of models to choose from, including a duplex capable version for automatic double sided printing, buyers can select the HP LaserJet 5550 that is right for them and their office, meaning users can be sure that the hefty price tag will bring a product suited to their businesses needs that can add an extra aesthetic depth to their workload.

Hp Color Laserjet 3800Dn – Duplexing, Ethernet, And Color In An Hp Laser
As part of HP’s LaserJet 3800 series, the HP Color LaserJet 3800dn offers users a color laser device in a line of quality, high end printers that have proven to be dependable, and also includes standardized automatic duplexing hardware, as well as built in networking. With exceptional print speeds in both color and black and white, along with an array of options and add ons, the LaserJet 3800dn stands out as the centerpiece of the 3800 line.
Operating at up to 22 pages per minute in both monochrome and color alike, the HP Color LaserJet 3800dn places itself at the high end of home color laser devices and, unlike the base model HP Color LaserJet 3800, the 3800dn comes equipped with not only the standard USB 2.0 high speed port, but an embedded HP Jetdirect Ethernet print server for office networking. A host USB accessory slot is also incorporated into the model, as well as a single EIO slot.
The open EIO slot can be used for a variety of external accessories, including network adapters, an IEEE 1284B parallel port, or an external hard drive, which leaves room for such options as gigabit Ethernet, a 802.11b/g wireless LAN for total wireless access, or other interesting network options and external memory.
The optional hard drive add on boasts a large, 20 GB storage capacity that can be used for simultaneous network project assistance, or for permanent storage of frequently used documents. Standard random access memory comes in at 288 MBs, which is further expandable to 544 MBs for slightly faster handling when dealing with complex imagery.
A 250 sheet capacity standard paper tray is built in to the HP Color LaserJet 3800dn, as well as a 100 sheet multi purpose tray for use with special media types such as envelopes and custom letterhead. It can also be utilized for additional letter or legal sized storage space, or, for even more storage, an additional 500 sheet tray can be purchased separately. HP also offers a version of the model, the HP Color LaserJet 3800dtn, that comes with the tray included, and all of the same features.
With a footprint of 22.6 x 22.5 x 20.3 in (W x D x H), the HP Color LaserJet 3800dn comes in fairly large dimensions, and will stand even taller when the additional 500 sheet tray is interfaced with the unit. It also sits at just barely under 60 pounds, including the ink cartridge, making it just slightly too big to be considered a desktop printer, but still within reasonable specifications for a color laser printer, which tend to run on the large size in comparison to their monochrome counterparts.
HP advertises a 65,000 sheet maximum monthly duty cycle for the unit, and backs up their claim with a one year limited warranty that includes web and phone based tech support, as well as guaranteed next day on site repair service. Considering the HP Color LaserJet 3800dn’s price range, it could be considered a decent purchase for a small office considering a color capable unit.

Hp Color Laserjet Cp2025Dn – Duplexing, Network Color Laser Printer
Though the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn is a seemingly straightforward color laser printer, its simple hardware is beefed up with a few versatile features such as a built in duplexor, along with an impressive set of specifications. With a both a reasonable price tag and footprint alike, the LaserJet CP2025dn stands as a good buy for a business of any size looking to add the power of color laser printing the their hardware set.
While color and black and white print speeds operate at the same rate of 21 pages per minute, start up times vary, but only slightly, with monochrome first page time locked at 17.2 seconds for letter sized paper, and color clocking in not far behind at 17.7 seconds. With speeds above 20 pages per minute, the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn is not only suitable as a personal or home printer, but as a fully networkable office device as well.
The HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn comes with a built in network card and a Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base TX port for connectivity across an entire business. A high speed USB port is also included for standard, single computer use.
With a total product weight of 52.7 lbs, the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn is a little on the heavy side, but no more so than similar color laser devices on the market, which tend to run high in the weight category. A footprint of about 16 x 19 inches (W x D) also makes it fairly manageable within a desktop environment, though maximum dimensions can extend up to 16 x 27 inches via fold out trays and accessories. A height of only 12.7 inches is actually very impressing, especially considering the paper capacity.
A 250 sheet input tray should keep paper refill cycles at a decent length, along with the help of a 50 sheet multi purpose tray. An optional 250 sheet tray will increase the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn’s overall height, but also almost double its paper storage capacity, and should be considered when operating at high volume output via a network. A 150 sheet face down output bin is not expandable, but should be more than enough considering the model’s performance capabilities.
With duplex printing hardware fully concealed within the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn’s hardware, automatic double sided printing makes professional looking document production easy, and efficient. Two sided printing can potentially reduce paper usage by as much as half, cutting down drastically on overall operating costs for not only standard paper, but types such as bond, brochure, colored, glossy, letterhead, photo, plain, preprinted, pre punched, recycled, rough, transparencies, labels, and envelopes as well.
With an impressively fast 540 MHz processor, large projects should not cause a problem with the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn, and if the standard 128 MBs of on board memory proves not to suffice via extensive, complex image printing, upgrades totaling up to 384 MBs are available as well. Resolutions run at 600 x 600 dots per inch for color and monochrome alike and, while the HP Color LaserJet CP2025dn isn’t the absolute cheapest color laser on the market, it backs up its cost with decent hardware.

Why did my HP Photosmart C4190 All In One stop printing color?
Is it broken? Do I need a new one? I have already tried realigning the printer, cleaning the printer cartage, and changing the printer cartage.
Thanks!

Hp Color Laserjet 2605Dn – Network Duplexing Color Laser Printer
The user friendly HP Color LaserJet 2605dn is one of the better designed units on the market concerning ownership of a color laser device by a home business. Though print speeds suffer drastically when compared to higher end models, the intuitive controls and simple features, as well as affordable price tag, make the LaserJet 2605dn a considerable option not only for a small office, but personal ownership as well.
Print speeds run at about half that of office level color laser units, with only 12 pages per minute for black and white printing, and up to 10 pages per minute for color. A first page time of 20 seconds is also considerably slower than the HP Color LaserJet 2605dn’s higher priced rivals.
With an emphasis on ease of use, the HP Color LaserJet 2605dn comes equipped with a two line, 16 character display that not only alerts users of printer status in plain, easy to read English, but also assists in making setup easier than ever, even for a novice user. Included software such as HP Web Jetadmin Peripheral Management and HP SureSupply also make setting up the printer and managing toner easy.
The HP Color LaserJet 2605dn’s paper handling abilities weigh in at a standard total of 250 sheets, with an optional, additional 250 sheet paper tray. While the HP Color LaserJet 2605 and 2605dn models come only with a single tray, HP also offers a HP Color LaserJet 2605dtn that comes with the additional paper storage included. The 2605dtn also interestingly comes with photo memory card slots, whereas the other models do not. A 125 sheet output bin is standard on all units.
With the HP Color LaserJet 2605dn and 2605dtn models, not only is networking made standard, but duplexing as well, for a significant boost in potential productivity over the base model. With network duplexing, it’s possible for an entire office or household to reap the benefits of double sided printing, a feature that can not only add a polished, professional look to documents, but also cut down on paper usage by as much as half.
A built in high speed USB 2.0 port complements the built in 10/100 Base TX Ethernet/ Fast Ethernet port for users who wish to use the HP Color LaserJet 2605dn as a personal printer alone. HP ImageRE resolution enhancement technology allows for great quality color prints at 2400 dots per inch, while a 300 MHz processor ensures that workloads move smoothly.
With 64 MBs of built in memory, most projects will operate without incident, but if super high complexity and imagery begins to slow production down, an industry standard 100 pin DIMM slot allows for a variety of possibly memory upgrades totaling no more than 320 MBs of overall RAM. A maximum monthly duty cycle of 35,000 sheets, along with a one year limited warranty and exchange policy, ensure that the HP Color LaserJet 2605dn will serve as a decent long term investment for a home business, or even a small office interested in color laser technology.

Hp Color Laserjet 3600N – Networking Color Laser Printer
With a color laser print speed of an impressive 17 pages per minute, the HP Color LaserJet 3600n leads the way in affordable, yet high functioning, color laser devices. Offering networking capabilities and a small selection of customizability options, the LaserJet 3600n is a piece of hardware worth considering if your aim is to incorporate color printing into your business.
Black and white print speed matches that of color, also topping out at 17 pages per minute. A first page out time of only 14 seconds helps to keep things moving along from ready mode, or even the energy efficient power save mode. While active, the HP Color LaserJet 3600n operates at 335 watts, making it easily Energy Star Compliant, and the 48 watt ready mode and 15 watt sleep mode help to keep energy consumption and cost at a bare minimum.
A 600 x 600 dot per inch resolution is supplemented by HPs ImageRE Resolution Enhancement 3600 technology, which adds an element of clarity not seen in other 600 dpi devices. A 360 MHz Fujitsu FR555 FRV processor helps to keep projects moving along swiftly, even under heavy work loads. Also included with the HP Color LaserJet 3600n is a built in 64 MBs of SDRAM which is not expandable, however, HP also offers an upgraded version of the unit, the HP Color LaserJet 3600dn, which not only comes equipped with duplexing for automatic double sided printing, but additional RAM as well totaling 128 MBs.
The only other notable difference between the HP Color LaserJet 3600n and the 3600dn is a slight increase in weight due to the additional hardware, taking the unit’s 59.6 lbs up to 61.6 lbs, and a slight increase in height is perceivable as well, going from 15.7 by 20.7 by 15.7 to 15.7 by 20.7 by 16.7 inches in dimension. Also possibly adding to the overall height of the unit is an optional additional paper tray.
With standard paper handling fairly well equipped thanks to a 250 sheet letter or legal sized tray supplemented by an oversized 100 sheet multi purpose tray. An optional 500 sheet additional tray brings the HP Color LaserJet 3600n’s total paper potential to 850 sheets, meaning, even under heavy work load conditions, paper replacement cycles should remain entirely manageable.
A maximum monthly duty cycle of 50,000 sheets also ensures that heavy output demands will be well taken care of without incident, though HP does recommend only 1,000 to 3,000 pages printed per month for optimum preservation of the HP Color LaserJet 3600n’s hardware. That being said, HP also includes a one year limited warranty to back your investment, as well as web and phone tech support, and a limited parts replacement policy.
The HP Color LaserJet 3600n and HP Color LaserJet 3600dn were designed with the intention of bringing color laser printing down to a cost effective level not only for the small office, but the home business as well, and, with full Ethernet wired networking, an entire work team can easily take advantage of powerful, color laser output.
