HP Colour LaserJet 2700n review

Verdict:

This quiet printer is easy to maintain and has low running costs. It isn't cheap to buy, but it comes with generous supplies that could in effect make it free to run for the lightest users. However, its print quality isn't especially high, and it's slow when printing in colour.
