A laser printer that’s easy to operate yet delivers quality performance: that’s what the HP Color LaserJet 3600 Printer is all about. Because it has a compact designing, it can be placed on a desktop, making it ideal for a small-scale office. When it comes to productivity, your needs can be met by the available high-speed processor and upgradeable input tray. Additionally, it has a new kind of HP 3600n cartridge within, so professional-looking prints can be achieved.
A 360-MHz fast processor is responsible for this machine’s fast output capabilities. It’s capable of delivering 17 pages per minute for both black and white and colored prints. And it’s fast enough to have the first page out in less than 14 seconds, again for both black and white and colored tasks. This performance pace, however, still depends on factors such as print quality selected, and the document size and contents.
A maximum of 600 x 600 dots per inch resolution can be churned out. With such, obtaining well-detailed and vibrantly colored prints is easy. Speaking of colored prints, there’s a new kind of toner HP has developed for the unit, and it’s called the ColorSphere toner. It allows for the available range of color to be more extensive, plus it enables colors to come out much brighter. For maximum results, HP recommends the use of its own paper with 5 layers of coating.
Another helpful feature of the 3600 laser printer is the ease of maintenance, especially when it comes to replacing the cartridges. That’s because there are only 4 of them all in all, making regular replacement hassle-free. But there’s more: the ColorSphere HP Color LaserJet cartridges and imaging drum are all incorporated into a single unit. Such makes the imaging system fully replaced each time, for performance that’s more consistent.
From the box, there are 2 available standard trays. However, the input capacity of this laser printer can be upgraded to as much as 850 sheets. This can be done through the attachment of an optional input tray. What’s more, an optional duplexer may also be used, for two-sided printing. It also relies on your desktop computer for document processing prior to printing; this, thanks to the host-based technology it features.
Media sizes that are compatible range from envelopes, letter, legal, to executive. There’s a multipurpose tray which can handle media sizes from as small as 3″ x 3″, to as large as 8.5″ x 14″. Media types supported are varying. They include paper (plain, bond, glossy, colored, rough, recycled, etc.), labels, transparencies, cardstock, and many others.
More than being simple to operate and replace the imaging system, it’s also breezy to install. By plugging it in and doing a few clicks, it automatically installs itself. And just like similar laser printers available these days, there are two connectivity choices. Enabling you to connect the unit either to a computer or small-scale network are the USB 2.0 and Ethernet 10/100 Base-TX ports.
The HP Color LaserJet 3600 Printer is ideal for a small workplace because of its compact body and affordable price tag. Installing, maintaining, and operating this unit is easy, thanks to the technologies HP has thrown in. With the kind of performance and LaserJet 3600 printer toner cartridges it packs, getting professionally rendered results is possible every time.
