Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
The HP Deskjet 960c printer is for those who are going to demand that little bit more. It offers excellent results achieved at an outstanding speed. The 960c is one of Hewlett-Packard's mid-range printers and offers better speed and print quality than typical budget offerings, as well as a sturdier build quality. It makes an excellent home or home-office workhorse. The 150-sheet paper tray points to the volume of work this printer has been designed to accommodate. The results are clean and crisp with smooth curves and lines. Colour pictures emerge with excellent graduations and plenty of fine detail. The maximum resolution of 2,400 by 1,200 is well up to the job of producing photo-realistic images. The exact results, as with all inkjets, depend on the paper you are using. To help with this there's an automatic paper sensor that can adjust the print settings to suit. The greyscales are equally impressive. You can opt to print these in either pure black or using the colour ink which adds a subtle touch of colour to grey images which looks rather fetching.

HP's Toolbox software offers a comprehensive set of controls including a visual indication of the ink levels and estimates of how many more pages you can print. You can also print in a fax-friendly resolution with suitably large dots so a fax can transmit the result clearly. Printing speed is one of this printer's strengths. Printer manufacturers quote speeds based on pages with fairly low ink coverage. In more realistic use the 960c still manages mono documents at over five pages a minute, which is very good going. If you want to print on both sides of the paper there's an optional duplex unit. The documentation is a little brief perhaps but otherwise there is little to grumble about. You can pay less for a colour inkjet of course, but you won't get this level of quality or speed.--Miles Berkeley

5.0 out of 5 stars HP DeskJet 960c Colour Printer, 13 Jan 2002
By A Customer
I bought the above printer about 2 weeks a go, and I have had nothing but pleasure. Comparing it to my Epson 740, it is faster, quiter, and has a higher print quality. It also features something I think all printers should have - a PRINT CANCEL button. Another great feature of this printer is the automatic double-sided printing option which saves time, paper and money. I have had past experience with Hewlett Packard, and this printer must be one of the best they have ever made.

3.0 out of 5 stars HP 960cse - eh., 3 Jul 2002
I went to several stores and acquired print samples from a variety of printers on regular copy paper. The HP 960c was not the best in photographic quality because of obvious dithering, but it did produce very clean, sharp and consistent output. Text was noticably better than other printers, such as epson C80 and canon S750.

When I got the 960c running, I noticed several problems. When printing graphics, there was noticiable banding. The type of paper made no difference, although copy paper tended to get wrinkly when it soaked up hp's ink. A friend and a family member also had color HP inkjets and both noticed the same banding with their printers. What's interesting is that none of the print samples from 2 different stores (some 6 samples) of the different hp models had this banding.

HP support was very quick to respond (via website and email) and made a number of interesting suggestions. However, none of them had any affect, and day after day they've become less and less relevant.

So, what I can suggest on this printer is... it's very similar to the other printers out there, but don't bother spending alot-- the variations in the ink cartridges will affect the quality far more than the gimmicky features that seperate the low end models from the high end ones. And those HP cartridges are by far the most expensive.

5.0 out of 5 stars HP 960 C, 10 May 2002
By A Customer
I have used Epson printers for the past 5 years at work and watched them fail and break down after 9 months, 800s 740, and 580s. We recently purchased HP 960s and touch wood, they are faster, more reliable and better quality. The truth is, you get what you pay for !!!

I've had this printer for about a year, and while I find the picture quality to be very good, I've had problems right from the start with the paper feed. Read more
