Rating: Summary: HP 940C Review: After using this printer for one year (home use), a plastic bracket to which a spring attaches to maintain belt tension on the print cartridge carriage broke. Rather than try to get a new part, I'm going to throw this printer away and buy a new one.
Rating: Summary: This is progress? Review: Apparently a replacement for the terrific 932c printer, this "upgraded" model is a bomb. Jams, can't print straight, picks up multiple sheets, and horrible service all add up to a misfire. I went through the hassle of getting two replacement units shipped to me, and both replacements had more problems than the original! I've written off my 940c. I don't think anyone should waste their time (and certainly not their money) on this one.
Rating: Summary: Bad printer Review: Do not buy this printer. I have had nothing but trouble with it- it jams every other time I print, and most of the time, it grabs 3-4 papers at once, and prints on all of them. I certainly expected better quality from HP, and this did not deliver. The printing is decent when it works, which is not often. I will be looking for a different company next time.
Rating: Summary: Great perfomance printer Review: Excellent job for small office or home use. Good resolution and fine prints on paper and photo paper as well.
Rating: Summary: Excellent workhorse Review: I am a high school student, and go through about 2 reems of printer paper each week with all the homework I get. Needless to say, I need a printer that won't let me down. Well, the HP Deskjet 940C is what I use. It offers both great print quality and timely execution of tasks. I can choose from 3 different print quality settings (Draft, Normal, and Best), depending on what I'm printing. This has benefits in of itself. Moreover, it offers an outstanding 1200 dpi when using premium paper.Do yourself a favor if you're in the market for a new inkjet printer, and go with the HP Deskjet 940C.
Rating: Summary: Great printer for the price. Review: I bought this printer about 2 years ago. It's a great printer for what I paid, which was not bad at all. One thing I don't like about it, it's that a lot of times it shakes a lot when it's printing and when it finishes a page. Also, if by any chance you cancel a page that's printing, it may be a hassle to print again, as the printer may just print randomly any simbols it wants. I just bought a digital camera and it works great. I bought the most expensive HP paper, but I was not quite impressed with the results. There were pixels in the paper, and the colors were a little unacurate, especially the red. It made my hair look like if I had tinted it red, when I really have light brown hair. The speed is awesoime, as it prints fast on black and white. It's a good printer, don't get me wrong, but if you're looking to print pictures & detail graphics, look elsewhere. For just b&w printing, it's perfect.
Rating: Summary: Mixed Feelings Review: I bought this printer about a month ago and was slightly disappointed by its performance. The print quality is great, the photos I printed looked 99% like the 35mm prints that came from the lab, but I made the mistake of using 4x6 photo paper instead of the standard 8 1/2 x 11 sheets. Approximately every-other print came out crooked on the paper, and the printer has an annoying habit of cutting off the last inch of the image because of margin restrictions. I couldn't find an option to use the maximum paper margins, and so had to end up making a white border around the image so that the printout didn't look strange. I bought this printer as a replacement for a 5-year-old Epson brand, and am considering going back to it because of my frustrations with this HP. Summary: Great print quality and speed, but not good with custom paper sizes.
Rating: Summary: Save your money--buy something else. Review: I bought this printer based on the reputation of HP--not again. I have had it for 5 months and it just stopped working. I went to the web site to get troubleshooting info about the error codes. I have spent an easy 6 hrs working on it and nothing worked. It suggests calling phone support "if you are still having trouble." I called phone support but, because I had bought the printer more than 90 days ago, they wanted [money]per phone call--forget that. I email for support and it sent me a computer generated response redirecting me to the same web page I first started with. I am taking the [money] I would have wasted on the phone call just to get someone to read me the same damn web page and then ask me to phone back later and going to try a new brand of printer. HP no longer means quality!!!
Rating: Summary: Extremely unhappy Review: I hate this printer! It is nothing but problems. Every single time I go to print even a single page, there is some sort of problem! The paper jams, I get timeout errors, the ink runs out too fast and I am unable to fill it with the refill kits. The thing has a mind of it's own and starts spewing out pages even when I'm not trying to print anything. It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't put trash on each page wasting my paper. It's a piece of junk! 1 Star is highly overrating this product!
Rating: Summary: I won't buy one again Review: I have had mine for about two years. I love the color it gives but it has also given me a lot of problems. Something has gone wrong with the memory inside making it impossible to print in "best" quality. An error message will pop up on my screen and then it will start printing out garbled junk. I've down loaded the latest driver--more than once--but with no success. It has been a waste of money to me--especially when ink cartridges are so high for it!!
