HP Officejet Pro L7680 Ink Cartridges

Design

The large printer stands out because of its large frame, which weighs 35 pounds. The topmost part is dominated by the automatic document feeder on the scanner lid, which can handle fax, scanning, and copying. There is a PictBridge USB port and built-in flash memory card readers. The HP Officejet Pro L7680's single output tray can initially hold 250 sheets, and the optional second tray holds up to 350 sheets. The control panel looks busy with a 2.4-inch colour screen, but the buttons are organised according to their functions. The printer uses the 4-cartridge thermal inkjet system.

Advantages

Laser-like speed at up to 34 to 35 ppm and excellent connectivity options are some of the perks of the HP Officejet Pro L7680. It supports xD-Picture cards, SD Memory Cards, Memory Stick, CompactFlash, and MultiMediaCard, so you can directly print from them. The fax machine can send and receive messages in colour, at a maximum speed of 33.6 Kbps. The HP Officejet Pro L7680 is also often praised for its duplexer and built-in automatic document feeder.

Disadvantages

The photo functions of the HP Officejet Pro L7680 are not as intuitive as other inkjet printers, so even when configured, it still doesn't produce the best looking colour photo printouts. Scanning in greyscale mode results to unimpressive output, even if you switch to the highest resolution. Apart from those problems, the Officejet Pro L7680 is also often criticised for its size and high initial cost.
