OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
The HP LaserJet 3600N brings the reliability, quality, and dazzle of color laser printing to your Ethernet workgroup or home network. The Laserjet 3600 connects to your computer via high-speed USB 2.0 (cable sold separately), and prints up to 17 pages per minute of the sharpest text and boldest color you’ve ever seen! HP’s Smartprint technology automatically optimizes the print settings for the best print possible.

The 3600’s standard 350-sheet paper capacity (in 2 trays) can be upgraded to 850 sheets with an additional tray. The 200-sheet main output tray keeps your print jobs neatly stacked until you’re ready to pick them up. Print borderless photos, sales media, newsletters, or text documents on papers ranging from 3 x 5” to 8.5 x 14”. The LaserJet 3600 is a powerful solution for networks that demand both color capabilities and laser-precise text!

LaserJet 3600n

white Reviewed By: Some Dude on 10/4/2006
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Prints VERY fast. Colors look great. Easy to network. Printer gets it's own IP addy on your network. Really cool.
Cons: Toner is EXPENSIVE. Printing 2 sided 3-fold pamphlets (90% coverage), you'll get about 300 out of your color cartidges. That's when the printer will say your empty. See below for more.
Other Thoughts: Set the printer to "Override on out" I've printed hundreds of pages since the printer told me I was out of toner, with no sign of running out yet.

Also, don't expect to frame a picture that you print on this printer. But, you already knew that...

Can't handle cardstock

white Reviewed By: jnetpa on 5/10/2006
Rating + 3
Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: This printer is fast. It looks nice, has friendly menu, and easy setup. The toner cartridges are full, not half full like others. It comes with networking built-in.
Cons: It doesn't handle cardstock correctly. The printouts were crooked. It's noisy. The manual feed tray is poor designed.

Happy Printer

white Reviewed By: Sord on 11/18/2008
Rating + 4
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Prints good looking color output that won't smear.
Prints fast from idle state.
Very easy to setup print drivers on additional PCs - my kids are printing directly from their PCs instead of taking over mine.
Cons: Huge footprint! I read that the printer was large, but still wasn't ready for the massive size. I had to move the filing cabinet a couple inches away from the wall to get it to fit on top.

Very loud calibration that seems to take place each time I print (only after the printing is done and it might be because I don't print very often, maybe once a day).
Other Thoughts: Initial setup was much longer process than I expected - start at least an hour or more before your first print job.

NO PCL/PS, Poor Performance

white Reviewed By: ALL_HP on 11/18/2008
Rating + 1
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: LOW Cost, larger cartridges than 2600 (more toner per), fine print quality on low-end documents.
Cons: Host-based printer. This should not bear the HP name -- does not support any protocols (PCL/PS) and even is not intended for workgroups or important documents (reference: adobe PDF)
Other Thoughts: Don't buy this printer. You will run into problems, I give you my word on that.

Great Printer for the price

white Reviewed By: SuperDave on 11/13/2008
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Nice print Quality! Setup the Network printing in Seconds. The B/W Toner is rated for 6,000 pages and the Color Toner's are rated for 4,000 pages. That's Amazing!
Cons: This Puppy is a little Heavy!!! Little Noisy, when printing.
Other Thoughts: @ $300.00 it's a little steep in price, for a regular home desktop printer. But it's well worth it.
