HP D1368 Printer Review

For under $40, buyers can purchase an inkjet printer that is not only cost close to nothing but also has a very low cost of maintenance. The HP Deskjet D1368 is extremely affordable. Deskjet D1368 ink cartridges are some of the most inexpensive, and remanufactured versions of the printer ink are also available for an even lower price.

If cost isn't the primary concern, though, quality might be. Filled with two HP D1368 ink cartridges, this small inkjet unit—weighing only 4.5 pounds—offers high resolutions. A tank of black and a tank of tricolor printer ink come standard. The tricolor tank contains cyan, magenta and yellow HP D1368 ink. Using only the black ink, a resolution of 1200x1200 dpi is possible. Even better, with the tricolor Deskjet D1368 ink, resolutions as high as 4800x1200 dpi are possible.

Its low volume is somewhat of a drawback though. It only can produce 500 pages monthly, which for many homes will be enough, but for some will fall short.

The HP D1368 is nothing special, according to consumer reviews. It is known for having paper jam issues, and many consumers claim that it is quite an annoyance. Users also complain about having problems setting up this unit, as well as having installation issues. Some have said that it isn't reliable and that it tends to breakdown often. Even with the negative, there are positive things to say too. The price tag on the HP D1368 ink is low, while still delivering high quality, according to users. The upfront price tag is small too, which makes it an even better buy. For home users that have minimal printing needs and don't need to buy a unit with multiple functions like copying, scanning and faxing, the D1368 could be a simple, affordable alternative.
