Hewlett Packard DeskJet 697c InkJet Printer

Pros: Cheap
Cons: You get what you pay for

I have horrible luck with printers, and I'm also cheap. That may be why I got stuck with this miserable HP 697C piece of garbage. I had a Brother HL-720 laser (another dud of a printer), and the thing finally dropped dead. I promptly ran out and found...

Pros: Easy to install, has performed flawlessly for 3 + years now.
Cons: Does not handle color well, is very very loud when printing.

Pros: Modern looking
Cons: read opinion for further details, too many to list here.

We got this printer about a year ago to replace our old dot matrix printer. Of course it is better than the dot matrix, it doesn't even compare to the other printers on the market.

Actually, we have a 695C, and the 697C was the closest one I...

Pros: Efficient, clear
Cons: None

One thing I have to say is my HP Deskjet 697c has never failed me. My husband and I bought ours probably a little over a year ago and I am glad we did. I have used it for various projects. I always make my own greeting cards. I have made business...

Pros: Not too pricey
Cons: waste of paper, bad printout, black and white only

I purchased a DeskJet 697C last year and why? Because I wanted a better printer than my DeskJet 400 series, and what did I get? I got some new features such as the multi ink cartridge holder and "faster" printing, but I noticed that this...

Well first off Id like to say our old printer was a piece of garbage. So as a gift to our father my brother and i went printer shopping. We went to several different stores. We tested many printers in the store. We found some good ones but they had high...

Pros: Holds a lot of paper, easy to use, versatile
Cons: occasional ink smears
