HP (Hewlett-Packard) LaserJet 2550L Laser Printer -...

Strengths: Very nice color printouts, small design

Weakness: Toner expensive, unless you purchase re-filled.

Nice small size for home office use, very competitive price for quality HP printer and good warranty. Original HP toner expensive, but re-filled cartridges seem reasonable.

HP (Hewlett-Packard) LaserJet 2550L Laser Printer -...

Strengths: low price for a color network laser, relatively compact size, reasonable printing cost per page, reliable operation, user-friendly software, excellent HP support

Weakness: slow speed, noisy operation, built-in electronic cartridge expiration counter, disappointing print quality (not awful, but not as good as expected from reviews).

Seemed like an OK printer for a single user, until one day it displayed an e error message that even the techs at HP didn't know what it meant, so I went through a week of dragging the 70 pounds of it first to a local authorized dealer, who couldn't fix it, and then to UPS to mail it back for replacement. I can only hope it doens't happen again. Or, if it does that it is still under warranty.

HP (Hewlett-Packard) LaserJet 2550L Laser Printer -...

Strengths: Low initial price, relative small size, sharp image quality

Weakness: speed, expensive toner

It has relative small size to other color laser printer, good print quality(not the best though). However, the print speed is slow comparing to other printers in the same price range. Also, The toner is expenisive, if I could choose, I would spend a couple of more hundreds to buy a 2550n, its toner yeilds more pages than this one.

HP (Hewlett-Packard) LaserJet 2550L Laser Printer -...

Strengths: Affordable, HP Quality, Color, Speed

Weakness: Power consumption, Size

This a workhorse color laser printer from HP that is available at a low price (by HP standards especially). This printer brings color laser printing to people who always wanted to own an HP printer that has been a workhorse in institutions and organisations all over the world. This printer works fast (once it warms up to the first print) and the color print quality rivals that of the best inkjets...

HP (Hewlett-Packard) LaserJet 2550L Laser Printer -...

Strengths: Very good color - crisp and sharp, quite fast for home use

Weakness: Expensive toner, paper tray is more space consuming as to use it you have to open and leave open, slow startup,

I decided to go ahead and buy this because of the size and print quality. Printout is very good and much better than I have expected from a color laser printer. Startup time and printing are slow, but are acceptable for home use. I am using it as a dedicated color printer for color printing only, for black and white I have a separate monochrome laser printer (that is much cheaper for black and...

HP (Hewlett-Packard) LaserJet 2550L Laser Printer -...

Strengths: Quality of prints. "laser" quality.

Weakness: Drum costs. Drum cost. Drum Cost. and slow

When researching a year ago all I saw was "up to 20,000 pages" on the drum. I got just over 5k. Support said I "use too much color". HELLO, it's a color printer. Just added up the cost for 3 color, one black and a drum. Total $478.95 plus shipping. I can buy a new printer for $360 with all this included. Guess this one's in the trash.

HP 2550L Color Laser

Strengths: Great quality, small, fast, affordable, reliable. Overall, great value for a color laser.

Weakness: Can be a little loud.

I have had this printer for going on two years now and I have found it a great little printer for printing standard color printouts. I opted to get a cheap mono laser for black and white document printing as in the long run this will save the color printer much wear and tear as well as saving my toners for the more important color dedicated printing I do. I don't use the printer for printing to...

Good speed and quality

Strengths: Good speed and quality

Weakness: Manual could be better

A great monochrome printer. Its fast, sharp, and economic (in terms of cost per page). The only things that went wrong for me was the first unit I received only printed on half the page no matter what I did, HP had me send it back to Amazon (super easy returns with Amazon!!). What I did learn from the first unit was that the HP toolbox software that comes on the provided disc lags and freezes my...

laserjet 2550L

Strengths: when it works..it's fine

Weakness: expensive cartridges, high maintenenace, drum replacement 3 times

Would not recommend. Purchase this brand new. Have had for over 2 years. Not very user friendly. One user really abused it! it's not working now. I would not recommend even at a cheap price. The cartidge replacement cost could buy you a new printer.

better try other printer

Strengths: low price, small size

Weakness: noisy, low speed, color doesn't stay on some glossy paper

Buy this about a year ago, the big issue is color won't stay on some glossy paper. This problem occur after 500 prints. The other is expensive toner only can use for about 2000 prints
