Reviews

I bought this printer to replace my 14 year old Hp LJ 4MP. I assumed the HP Color Laser Printer CP1215 would be capable of doing the same things my old one did and more in color. My immediate need was to print out baby shower invites. The card stock was within the limits of HP’s recommendations, no thicker than a 4×6 card. The printer would print 1 invite, then error out with “misprint”.
After 20 minutes of making sure I removed all the tabs and protectors that HP ships with and making sure this model supported 4×6 card stock, I found a way to get the rest of my stock printed. I had to press the resume button, causing it to reinitialize the warm-up sequence and then print. Took 30 minutes to do 30 invites. This printer seems fine to print every day stuff. But if you print specialty paper, size and type, be aware it might not handle the paper well.

I ordered the printer from Amazon; shipped and rec’d in good time and condition. Directions to setup simple and straight forward. Thought I was done. Started back to work, printed some docs with some color diagrams. Particularly the imagery was blury, almost as if they had shadows. Uhg, open and read manual; no help. Call HP customer support; now to their credit, “Bob” was helpful and patient. Patient because he explained my printer needed calibrating; 3 times worth. Then download and install latest firmware; oh, and calibrate 2 more times.
Each calibrations cycle seemed to last 2 or 3 minutes; but I wasn’t timing it. Printed off some test pages, good, problem solved or so I thought. Next came this “spooler subsystem app” error. Uhg, what is this; google find out it’s a .dll problem; going to require regedit. Ah no, I’m going to take a short cut and restore xp to yesterday setting so I can get back to work. Nope, that won’t do it. Mind you, I can’t print off the directions either. Follow the instructions, reinstall printer. What do you know, it works again. Folks it just shouldn’t be this hard. I thought I was going to alleviate these problems by buying HP? Maybe next time. So I’ve printed 100 pages or so now and for the money, I’m satisfied with the results. Would I recommend to a friend, reluctantly…
