Hp Deskjet 3740 - Ultra Small Color Inkjet Printer

As an ultra compact device, the HP DeskJet 3740 inkjet printer comes in an incredibly small package suitable for any home office, while operating at speeds that help maintain an acceptable workflow. As a bare bones unit, you won't find any of the bells and whistles seen in higher end models, yet the HP DeskJet 3740 holds its own in the personal inkjet market.

Weighing in at only 4.5 pounds, the HP DeskJet 3740 is one of the most manageable inkjet printers out there. It comes in a small footprint of only 16.6 x 7.2 x 5.6 inches (W x D x H) meaning it can squeeze into places that laser printers and larger inkjets cannot. While its connectivity remains limited, with only a single USB connection port available, the HP DeskJet 3740 does support a wide range of operating systems for both PC and Macintosh.

The HP DeskJet 3740 has a standard input capacity of up to 80 sheets, but is also compatible with special media types, including up to 10 envelopes. An output capacity of 50 sheets also should prove to be plenty of space for a machine of this workload capacity. Duplex printing is not automated, but can be utilized manually via printing on one side and then reloading sheets upside down.

Custom media sizes can also be programmed to operate with the HP DeskJet 3740, ranging from the size of an index card (3 x 5 inches) all the way up to legal sized paper (8.5 x 14 inches). Preset media types that are compatible include plain, inkjet, and photo paper, as well as envelopes, transparencies, labels, cards, HP premium media, and even iron on transfers for custom clothing.

With a recommended monthly duty cycle of only 500 pages, it is obvious that the HP DeskJet 3740 was not intended for extremely high output. Still, what it lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality, with up to 1200 x 1200 rendered dots per inch in black and white, and up to 4800 optimized dots per inch for color, thanks to a three or four color cartridge system. With this customizable system, a black ink cartridge is optional, leaving the user the option of using composite black formed from the three standard ink colors (cyan, magenta, and yellow).

Thanks to HP's PhotoREt III resolution enhancement technology, color imagery will come out looking clean, and professional. Speed also shouldn't be a problem with the HP DeskJet 3740 which boasts a top print speed of up to 14 pages per minute with the optional black ink cartridge, and up to 10 pages per minute with only the three color cartridge.

While normal quality prints run at a decent 3 pages per minute, best quality color projects will operate at a painfully slow 0.8 pages per minute, meaning photo quality prints will take incredible amounts of time to be produced. The HP DeskJet 3740 was not designed for heavy output, and therefore should not be considered for office use, but if speed is not a factor, it makes for a great space saving solution.
