HP Color LaserJet Printer
Customer Rating

I'm a little disappointed. It's very slow and the cartridges didn't last long before requiring replacement. I replaced all four and they cost almost as much as the purchase price of the printer ($316.68). That knocked me back on my heels!
I will reserve this printer for very limited use. Print quality is excellent, though, in both color and black and white.
What's great about it: Print Quality
What's not so great: Printing speed and cost of print cartridges
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I had an Okidata C3200 and this printer replaced it. This HP starts quicker and runs much quieter. The colors are great. I took a standard picture and printed it on regular paper and it looked very good.
What's great about it: Small footprint, good speed, easy to set up.
What's not so great: Software does not finish installing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got tired having to run out every five minutes to replace ink jet cartridges. The print quality and life of the ink cartridges makes this a great buy.
What's great about it: Easy to set up and print quality is amazing
What's not so great: Replacement ink cartridges are expensive

I got this printer to supplement my industrial color laser printer by another manufacturer. Compared to the "big boy," it warms up faster but the printing is slower and not quite as crisp. That's not a big deal considering that it was 1/5 the cost of the big printer. It also doesn't print well on photo-quality laser paper, but again, considering the price, I don't think that's a major flaw. The nice surprise is that it has drivers available on the internet that make it run beautifully under Ubuntu Linux! It was a major pain to have to port things to Windoze in order to get laser-quality printing...now I just hit the print button! I consider this printer an extremely good value for the money.
What's great about it: Compact and light weight for a color laser printer.
What's not so great: Nothing, really
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had my HP printer for nearly a year now and am extremely happy with it. It has excellent print quality and speed. I also like the fact that this printer seems to be economical on toner. If you are looking for a good home color printer, look no further than the HP CP1215.
What's great about it: Great speed. Easy on toner.

Works Great !

Everything worked like I expected. The software downloaded printer drivers easy on my Dell Inspiron Vista the very first time ! The color pictures are spectacular ! It works Like a charm. The only thing wrong was I ordered a 6' USB cable which was my bad, I should have measured because I needed a longer cable.
What's great about it: Everything !
What's not so great: Nothing !
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was tired of buying bargain HP ink-jets. My last two printers worked for about six months. Then the computer would not find the printer on USB, the printer would refuse to print due to low ink (new cartridges)... on and on. All very frustrating. Think "Office Space" printer scene.
So I went out and decided to spend the money and get a low end business level laser jet printer. Easy install, good quality output and no problems at all so far at two months.
What's great about it: Solid and reliable with decent driver software
What's not so great: No real problems if you're a weight lifter...
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's a great color laser for home use or SOHO users. It take a bit to warm up, but that's to be expected from any laser printers that are cold started.
There are no drivers for Mac, so good luck.
The price point I bought my printer at made it worth while, and it was a pony-horse (since I can't say that stepped up the usage to "work horse" status). It proved to be reliable, but if you're in need of something that can print out fast, then look elsewhere.
Again, great for small print jobs, but not for any print jobs of substance.
What's great about it: Easy setup for Windows, Easy to use
What's not so great: No Mac drivers or support, manual feed tray could be better
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was looking for a color printer and my first impression was to get an inkjet. But frankly I'm tired of printing a few pages on brand new cartridges, then 3 months later (after not printing) the cartridges report as empty. So I went with laser.
When I first so this printer at another store whos name rhymes with "Call-Mart", it was over $300. I went to Best Buy and it was on sale for $200. Great price!
I set it up and it was easy to install. The speed is slightly on the slow side compared to other laser jets, but still, faster than any ink jet I've had in the past. I can deal with it.
The quality is great! It's not the best, but for the price, I am very satisfied. Also, the software set up for the printer gives precise control over many of the printer settings.
Overall, I LOVE this printer! I recommend it!
What's great about it: cheap, great quality, not power hungry, quick start up
What's not so great: a little slow for laser
I would recommend this to a friend!

I couldn't ask for a better printer. It's fast and the color is beautiful. My friends are coming over asking me to print out items for them and that's OK because the print toners last so long. Imagine not having to buy toner for 6 months or longer.
It is big and heavy so it's not portable in that sense, but once it's set up you have a professional print shop in your home.
Enjoy

I bought this printer because I was looking for a color ink jet that had individual color wells. When I was at Best Buy I talked to the computer department guy about my desire to have individual ink wells for the color and black and he said the only ones they had in the store were the multifunction printers. I didn't really care for the multifunction printers because I just wanted a printer, I already had a scanner.
This pushed me into the $200 range for printers and on a lark I said to the computer department guy, "Well at $200, I should look at laser printers..." He responded, "We do have one in that range.
He showed me the 1215. I LOVE IT!
While you only get about 1200 pages out of the toners, I am extremely pleased with this printer. I am used to laser printers at work and color lasers. The quality of the prints I get out of my 1215 is comparable to what I get out of the $3000+ printers at work.
This is a 600DPI printer that is like every other laser printer I have ever used.
But this printer is slow, S L O W, SLOW! I new going in on this printer that it would be slow, but man, it is SLOW. So if you are looking for a fast printer, you do NOT want this printer. If you don't care about speed but want laser quality at home, this is the printer you want. The toner is cheaper per page than an ink jet. I have run 4 reams of paper through the printer and have only needed to replace the toner cartridges once.
I am very pleased with this printer!
What's great about it: Cheap! OMG Cheap!
What's not so great: Cheap! no frills, but does the job.
I would recommend this to a friend!
