Digital camera reviews of HP DeskJet 3845 Color Inkjet Printer
Digital camera Review: A fair printer with strengths and annoyances...
Summary: 3 Stars
I've had one for years, and I am presently using it while I write this. Mine has gotten huge use, printing probably over 10,000 pages in the past years. It runs on a MacPro with OSX 10.6.
Strengths:
* Good print quality
* Lasts forever, it seems
* Generally works well
Weaknesses:
* Print rate is NOT anywhere near the specs unless you are printing scant ascii on a page
* Cartridges are expensive!!
* Tri-color cart means when one of the three is done, the rest is in the trash with the partially used cart
* Flakey at times: every so often it will confuse itself, flake out, drop jobs, etc.
* Burns through ink like a trophy wife burns through your bank account
At $25+ for a cartridge, it turns out to be as expensive as if you took books or hefty documents and had them printed with a professional print-on-demand service (assuming you are printing many copies). The economics of computer printers is that you pay little for the printer (under $100) and then pay thousands of dollars to buy ink across the life of the product. If any normal person was told a printer with endless use and no further expenses would cost them $3000, would they buy? No, probably not. I'd quickly estimate a print out on this guy costs 20 cents or so, excluding cost of paper. Sounds cheap, but if you print out 100 page documents every week, you spend $20 a week... it saves little over using Kinkos when you factor in the cost of paper and the printer itself.
