Strengths: great print quality and photographic output plus fast
Weakness: 750 page "starter" toner cartridges are a waste. HP could have easily put the full capacity 2200 page cartridges in and we'd not have to pay the same price as the printer for 4 new cartridges.
HP has this thing about "starter" ink and "starter" toner. A starter cartridge has all the waste -all the plastic, all the printheads, everything you need to make it work - plus a supply of either ink or toner. Now HP fills starter cartridges 1/3 full so that your printer says "oh dear - you've used all your toner and only printed one ream of paper - time to go spend MORE than you paid for the...
Strengths: Image quality is sharp and crisp. Colors are pretty accurate. Networking is a plus.
Weakness: Cartridges are expensive and do not come in high yield. Slightly bulky and heavy.
Prints okay. photo quality is not great. looks darker, lower resolution, & less glossy compared to inkjet printer. Since it's a laser printer, large scale photo doesn't look as nice as inkjets, but still does a decent job. The toner usage is the downside. Price is right!
Strengths: Low cost after 20% off coupon, on sale $100 off, $5 review bonus, and $100 rebate. Regular $400 retail, I ended up paying $135 + tax.
Weakness: Comes with 'starter toners.' These have a max of 750 printed pages vs. 2200 for 'full size toners.' I was told yield is 500 pages. There are four toner cartridges that retail for around $70 each.
If you measure electronics value by weight, this would be a winner at a hefty 40 pounds. Installation on my network was a breeze. You can also use USB2. Cables not included. I like the way paper goes under the printer in a pull out tray and comes out the top without flying to the floor. Other than the $280 + tax to relace the toner cartridges, I am happy with my purchase. Four stars instead of...

Heavy Color Printer Does Its Job
Strengths: Network ready, separate toner for each color, memory card reader.
Weakness: heavy as a ton of bricks, low capacity starter toners.
This printer is very heavy compared to other B/W laser printer. I was very surprised. Then again, compared to my work's color printer (HP Color Laser 1600), it is about the same weight but smaller. I like this printer better (HP CP1518ni) because it is network ready (no need for a printer server). Color print quality is about the same as the HP Color Laser 1600, adequate, but not magazine...
