HP DeskJet 3845 Color Inkjet Printer

Greetings, Received the unit in good condition. Set up was simple. Works great! Print out is clear and crisp. Finding this replacement unit saved us a lot of money. Thanks, Guy

PROS: small reliable very good quality with pictures ease of use good software easy install affordable CONS: ink tends to run out quickly with pictures slow rate of printing usb cable not included overall: 5 amazonian stars for the average user!

For letters, brochures, presentations, etc., this is a great printer; for pictures it is absolutely terrific. **NO matter HOW you install this, you WILL get error messages for OLEAUT32.DLL and KERNEL32.DLL: go to the HP main site and look up troubleshooting for installation on this product. If you follow their instructions, your problem is solved** VERY quiet operation. Large ink tanks - larger than many printers out there, even the other HP printers. THE BIG 'CON'?: if you use ANY Avery template, i.e. for business cards, address labels, et al, it will NOT align properly no matter how many times you try and configure its settings, but, again, this is covered on the HP website as well. Overall, worth the price, earns the 4stars - just be prepared to "tweak" it. (Note: when contacting the Avery folks about alignment problems with using their templates they IMMEDIATELY asked me if I was using an HP printer....so this is a common issue)

I selected this used printer to replace a similar printer that gave out. This printer is no better. The paper will not advance through the print heads, making the printer unusable. The HP website suggests that this condition would be not practical to correct.

I had bought this printer new when I bought my PC, back in 2006, eventually through wear and tear, it no longer printed photos or documents. I really liked it so I saw one for sale on Amazon. When I received it, it didn't work at all! Instead of going through the expense and hassle of returning it, I threw it away. What a waste of money!

I was forced to buy this for my desk at work because it is cheap, but as I always say, you get what you pay for. It prints out pictures, sheets of labels, and normal stuff ok but forget envelopes and single labels.

I was looking for a printer that used the same ink that I had a supply left over from my last printer. It works great,

Ink alone for this printer was more than the printer with the ink. I just bought it cause I didn't want to buy more ink. If I really printed that much, I would buy another one to replace the ink.
