HP Color LaserJet 3600 Printer: Product Information Everyone Would Know
The HP Color LaserJet 3600 printer is a fine unit intended mainly for networked workgroups. It uses paper extremely well and also is appreciated by many for its low operating costs, including the Q6473a toner. In addition, it’s obvious that Hewlett-Packard designed this particular printer in a thoughtful manner, making everything to do with the printer extremely easy to understand.
Retailing for about $700, the HP 3600 can usually be found for much less than that nowadays, when it can be found, because it’s a fairly popular machine. It also comes with a fair amount of expandability, as well as an ability to deliver fairly sharp print. For a workgroup that needs more output rather than smaller amounts of quality output, this can be a powerful attractant.
In terms of the printer’s size, most people who look at it say that it’s relatively small. As well, it’s fairly lightweight for a printer meant to service the needs of a workgroup, coming in at only 60 pounds. This means that the printer will be fairly easy to relocate if the need arises. It also can print out at up to 17 pages per minute in both black-and-white and color, making it fairly speedy for color printer.
Connecting the LaserJet 3600 is also fairly easy because it comes with USB 2.0 and 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet connectivity. As far as workgroup printers go, this is fairly standard product, but most workgroups and the IT specialists who help to service workgroups want simplicity and ease of connectivity rather than something excessively complicated.
Print resolution from this Hewlett-Packard is also decent at 600 x 600 dpi. This means that the printed output will look crisp and clear and free of any blurring or smearing. It delivers this print resolution in both black-and-white and color, meaning that just about anything that emerges from the printer will be more than suitable for most workgroup output.
The processor installed within the 3600 is a 360 MHz model, meaning that it can handle a print task fairly quickly, taking it in and then putting it out in a relatively short amount of time. HP also has installed 64 MB of RAM, which is most likely more than sufficient for the needs of just about any workgroup and its output requirements.
As regards the different types of paper and other media stock that the 3600 can handle, it’s good to know that it’s a pretty versatile printer. It can print out on bond paper, plain and glossy paper, envelopes, labels, transparencies, color laser printer paper and other media types. This is a lot of versatility for a model that actually won’t be selling for much money.
At a list price of only $700, and with the knowledge that it can be obtained for less than that from a number of different online retailers, the HP Color LaserJet 3600 printer is sure to be an attractive candidate for most any networked workgroup. It’s small, lightweight and the HP Q6472a toner cartridge produces sharp, clear prints in every mode. Re-ordering LaserJet 3600 ink and toner is easy online from many quality retailers. Keep compatable HP toner refill on hand so your print jobs always run smoothly.
