What are some of the things to look for when purchasing a new printer? GetConnected host Mike Agerbo takes a look at some of the important things to look for and the HP Color Laserjet CM1312NFI.
A lot of these big box and mail order places will hype HP anymore as they make a lot of money on selling them and don't have to support them. HP basically means horse poop anymore
@icanafforditt I service printers for a living, been doing HP for over a decade. Since 2007 the quality has dropped dramatically. Nice in theory but they are total crap from China. bad firmware, bad software, very weak structural and loaded with tons of bad capacitors not to mention lots of things engineered in to prevent use of non-HP supplies. I won't have one newer than 07 myself, I have enough repair work to do for customers without having to repair my own too. Buy an older refurb.
Please DO NOT buy the latest generation of HP printers until you have read the third party reviews from buyers like you and I. I bought the 1312 nfi after years of HP ownership ( they were the best by far), only to realize its the worst POS I've ever used. Horrific software that DOES NOT work, and a "support" dept that cannot recommend a fix. That's just the start. Read the reviews if you don't believe me. Mine is 4 months old and you can have it for $200 if you like.
stay away from this printer...! i have a very bad experience to buy this printer.

I couldnt agree more. I have an officejet 6400, endless problems, and useless support from HP who refuse to acknowledge there is a fauly. AVOID HP
