Type: 1-pass color, Technology: Laser, Rated Speed (Color): 8 ppm, Rated Speed (Mono): 8 ppm

Review Verdict: The HP Color LaserJet 2600n ties for the title of lowest-price color laser to date. But it ups the ante by including an Ethernet connection. Even better, it offers reasonably good performance and output quality, making it a strong contender as the low-cos

Product Rating: 3.55 star(s) HP Color LaserJet 2600n

Comments:
This simple-to-use model prints very sharp text, but does so slowly, making it best suited for home offices.

Review Verdict: Given the 2600n's high costs per page and lagging print speeds, consider spending $50 more for the much faster and more efficient Dell 3000cn.

Product Rating: 5 star(s) HP LaserJet 2600n

Comments:
The latest in HP's long and illustrious history of LaserJet printers, the 2600n has an inline toner cartridge arrangement and, with no carousel churning around, it's remarkably quiet in operation. And in performance terms, it more than meets expectations

Review Verdict: You pay a little more up front, but this LaserJet will repay your investment in spades

Product Rating: 3.5 star(s) Inexpensive color laser cuts PostScript emulation and RAM

Comments:
The LaserJet HP2600n's price is hard to beat, but picky printer shoppers might want to spend a little more for a printer with better image quality.

Review Verdict: Setting up the printer was easy. Four toner cartridges come pre-installed, but you do need to pull them out to remove the shipping tape before starting up. You can connect the printer to your computer via a USB 2.0 cable or over a network by using Apple's

Product Rating: 3.55 star(s) HP Color Laserjet 2600N Printer

Comments:
The $399 HP Color LaserJet 2600n is easy to maintain and is best suited for a small workgroup with modest demands. Lightweight at only 40.5 pounds, the printer is also compact and should squeeze into the most cramped of workspaces.

Review Verdict: The four toner cartridges are the only replaceable parts, and they slide easily into individual slots behind the fold-down front door of the printer. The 2600n comes with full-capacity cartridges, though their rated capacities are modest: just 2500 pages
