HP 3330 - A good all around small office machine1106162081

Pros:

A good workhorse, Easy to use, PC interface

Cons:

Memory limited, single paper tray, supplies expensive

I read the other reviews and felt I had to put in some positive comments about this machine. I purchased my 3330 two years ago for a small 2 person construction office. At the time, I had no idea that we would rapidly grow to 8 people, or that the machine would get the kind of usage it has. After 2 years, my machine is still going strong.

Usage: I print about 2500 - 3000 pages a month

I have used all of its features including scanning a color document and printing it to my HP color inkjet also connected to my PC. It handles that beautifully. The PC software used for programming the fax speed dial is infinitely better than fax machines that have to be programmed from a panel with multi-use buttons. Changing speed dial numbers is very easy. I would like to have more than 10 speed dial buttons, but considering the multi-use design, they kept the front panel clean, and 275 speed dial slots is more than I would ever want to use.

I have had occasions when I wanted to make multiple copies of a document that is over 20 pages long and ran out of memory in unit. I am working off of whatever the standard memory is and I don't know if it is upgradable or not. If you regularly deal with multiple copies of large stacks of documents, that could be a problem.

The only technical issue I have with it now is that the top paper feeder/scanner has a tendency to draw in more than one page at a time now and I have to monitor the machine to make sure it doesn't. However, that is recent problem and might even be repairable if I wanted to take the trouble.

This is probably not the cheapest laser multi-use to operate, but then none of HP's equipment is cheap to operate. The reason I buy HP is because the equipment works. I liked this unit so well, that when we needed something in another office and this went on sale at Staples, I bought another one.

This is all I have time to write now, but I wanted to add my input from a user that likes the equipment and would purchase it again if I had to do it over.
