HP 5615 Printer Review

Small office users need many of the same features and functions as a larger office, but without the extra expense of a laser model. The HP OfficeJet 5615 provides just that, as an office-centric all-in-one inkjet that can fax, copy, scan, and print. High-capacity HP 5615 printer ink can help to reduce the cost per page, and the unit can reach speeds of up to 20 pages per minute in black and 13 pages per minute in color.

The 5615 isn't as compact as some all-in-one models designed for home users, but for good reason. With extras like its 25-sheet automatic document feeder, there are a few tradeoffs that make it a little larger, but also increase functionality. The unit is still quite compact, however, measuring 9.3x17.1x16.5 inches, and weighs only 13 pounds before the OfficeJet 5615 ink is installed. This makes it easy to move around and even share a desk with, which is ideal for home offices with limited space.

One thing lacking from the 5615 is sharing ability. It connects via USB to a single computer, but doesn't include either wired or wireless networking. Faxing transmission speed is fast, at up to 33.6 Kbps, and scanning is particularly impressive, with a maximum optical resolution of 1200x2400 dpi, and a color depth of up to 48 bits, which should result in very sharp and detailed scans.

A high-capacity black HP 5615 ink cartridge is available for more than double the capacity of the standard version, which will be great news for those who print a lot of black text. Prices for OfficeJet 5615 ink cartridges are fairly reasonable, and using remanufactured HP 5615 printer ink is an excellent cost-saving alternative to OEM versions.

Buyers who prefer the lower replacement costs of an inkjet model but want the office features of a laser model should find the HP 5615 to be a great compromise. It offers sharp print and scan quality, and extras like its automatic document feeder make it very efficient and easy to use.
