HP 2000 Printer Review

The HP Deskjet 2000 color inkjet printer has an uncomplicated and simple design paired with an affordable price that will make it an excellent choice for home users on a budget. It can print at up to 16 color pages per minute and 20 monochrome pages per minute, and high-capacity options for HP 2000 printer ink can help to make it more cost-effective.

Unlike many of HP's home models, which have a front-facing input and output tray, the 2000 has a flip-up tray toward the rear of the machine for input, with a total capacity of 60 sheets. This requires less of a bend from the paper and should result in fewer paper jams, while also opening up possibilities for using thicker media such as card stock without issues.

Sharing features like wired or wireless networking are not supported, with only a single USB port available for connection to a PC. Both Windows and Mac platforms are supported, however. The machine measures 10.5x16.6x15 inches, but weighs only 4.4 pounds without the HP 2000 ink cartridges installed, so moving it around or setting it on a shelf for storage will be easy, especially with its fold-up trays.

Users can choose either standard or high-capacity versions of Deskjet 2000 printer ink. The standard Deskjet 2000 ink cartridges have yields of 165 and 190 pages for tricolor and black, respectively. The high-capacity versions of HP 2000 ink more than double these at 330 and 480 pages each.

The HP 2000 is a solid inkjet printer for the home with average speed and good print quality. Lack of sharing options might be an issue for a multi-user household, but individual users should find it to be a great solution for their needs, and at a very affordable price.
