  <br /> <b><span class="h3color tiny">This review is from: </span>HP Officejet 6000 Color Inkjet Printer (CB051A#B1H) (Office Product)</b><br/>
     

This printer replaces my workhorse HP 895cse professional printer I have used for 6 or 8 years.  Problem was, it was going to cost 75 dollars to replace the print cartridges - so I decided to spend a few bucks more and replace it with a new printer.  I read the reviews and for the most part, knew what to expect.  So I'm generally OK with the printer and it is working fine.  Which is to say, it prints nicely, but as other reviewers have mentioned, installation is a bit of a pain, and the thing is very noisy.  Not loud, but just really chatty.  Tell it to print.  It whirrs and clicks for anywhere from 10 to 35 seconds (one time it took a minute).  Once it gets started, its fast - especially in economy/draft mode.  In that or "everyday printing" mode it is at least twice as fast as my old printer.  So that's good.  But remember the whirring and clicking, etc.  Well, it even does that about 30 seconds after you stop printing.  Finally a minute after you stop printing - silence.  Beautiful wonderful silence - until you want to print again and the whole episode repeats itself :-(  Its not horrible - just annoying for someone who had a good printer before that didn't need to do all these gyrations.  I'm guessing this is HP's way of getting good print quality at the most bargain-basement price possible.  Let the firmware and auto-align stuff constantly grunt away to make up for not having provided a precise enough carriage to begin with?
<br/>
<br/>Installation was somewhat problematic - as others have mentioned.  But if you follow the directions (mostly pictures with few words), and you are brave enough to lift the really stiff bar to put the print heads in, and then twist the levers on the cartridges until they snap off (yes - you are supposed to break them off !), then it goes OK.  Just notice the 10-minute symbol in the section of the instructions where you let it do its initial auto alignment.  It sounds like its trying to feed paper many, many times.  But its actually doing its alignment (or something) dance all that time.  The hint is the 10-minute clock symbol in the picturial instruction sheet.  Miss it and you will think the thing is having trouble loading paper.  Don't force feed it more paper.  It eventually brought in the paper (after about 10 minutes) without any problem.  Then its time to install the software.
<br/>
<br/>The software spends an absurd amount of time doing seemingly nothing.  (What in the world can a printer driver software set be doing for all this time ?!  Half the time it is not even accessing the disk - just chewing on the processor...)  Once it finishes "checking the system", it then wants to install lots of utilities (and marketing stuff).  I told it to not do most of them.  Just the needed ones that were not possible to de-select, and the "solution center" which I wanted.  After a few more minutes, it was finally done.
<br/>
<br/>So - how's the print quality?  It's good.  Somewhat of an improvement over my old 895cse, in both fast-econ, and in normal (everyday printing) modes.  So that's a good thing.
<br/>
<br/>In summary, this is probably an OK, or maybe even good printer for the price, for the home environment where I'll be using it.  But I would NOT recommend this for an office.  It's not a business grade printer in my opinion and I would go nuts if I was periodically printing small batches and had to listen to it all day...
