The HP Color LaserJet 3600 Printer blends together professional-looking output with simplicity of use. This machine is suitable for small offices, compact enough to fit even on a desktop. Productivity needs in a typical office setting can be met by the fast processor within it and room for media tray expansion. Plus churning out quality colored prints are taken care of the new breed of LaserJet 3600 laser toner that’s included.

There’s a fast-performing 300-MHz processor inside its body. Such allows the unit to deliver up to 17 colored and black and white pages every minute. Also, it’s capable of dishing out the first page within 14 seconds, for both color and black and white tasks. Such performance speed, however, also depends on a lot of factors. Some of them include the mode of print quality, and the document size and contents.

Print resolutions can be up to a maximum of 600 x 600 dpi (dots per inch). With such resolution, it’s pretty easy to enjoy crisp details and lively colors. Speaking of which, color performance is taken care of by the new breed of toner HP placed inside it: the ColorSphere toner. Such allows color prints to be brighter, plus the range of colors available is made more extensive. For the best results, using HP’s 5-layer coating paper is recommended.

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 ink and toner 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 HP Color LaserJet 3600 printer toner it packs, getting professionally rendered results is possible every time.
