The HP LaserJet 2600n printer is a four-color laser printer that prints eight pages per minute (ppm) in both monochrome (black and white) and color.

  • Trays. The printer comes with a single sheet priority feed slot (Tray 1) and a universal tray (Tray 2) that holds up to 250 sheets of various paper types and sizes or 10 envelopes. It supports an optional 250-sheet paper tray (optional Tray 3).
  • Connectivity. The printer provides a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port for connectivity and an HP built-in internal print server for connecting to a 10/100Base-T network.
  • Memory. The printer contains 16 megabytes (MB) of synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM). No additional memory can be added.

HP 2600n printer offers great color as soon as you set it up. It provides a combination of automatic color features to generate excellent color results for the general user, plus sophisticated tools for the experienced color user.

The process of matching printer output color to your computer screen is quite complex because printers and computer monitors use different methods of producing color. Monitors display colors by light pixels using an RGB (red, green, blue) color process, but printers print colors using a CMYK (black, yellow, cyan, and magenta) process.

Buy and Install New Cartridge For HP LaserJet 2600n Printer

The HP Color 2600n printer displays an Order supplies message when a cartridge is running low and a Replace supplies message when a cartridge has been depleted. To ensure optimal print quality, HP recommends installing new 2600n toner cartridge when the Replace supplies message is displayed. Installing new cartridge at this point can help prevent waste of media or other cartridges when one cartridge produces poor print quality.

The life of a print cartridge depends on the amount of toner that print jobs require. When printing text at approximately 5% coverage, a cyan, magenta, or yellow print cartridge for the HP LaserJet 2600n lasts an average of 2,000 pages, and a black print cartridge lasts an average of 2,500 pages. A typical business letter has 5% coverage. You can check the supplies status by using the printer control panel, printing a Supplies Status page, or viewing the HP Toolbox. For typical use, the Order message indicates that approximately two weeks of life remains.

When a cartridge approaches the end of useful life, the control panel displays a message recommending that you order a replacement. The printer can continue to print using the current print cartridge until the control panel displays a message instructing you to replace the cartridge.

About HP LaserJet printers

HP LaserJet printers use laser and electrophotographic technologies. To print a page in a laser printer, the print media must be picked from the input tray one sheet at a time and transported through the paper path. While passing through the paper path, a scanning laser beam writes an electrostatic image onto a rotating photosensitive drum. As this image passes the developing station, a dry, powdery toner is attracted to the image areas. In an HP color LaserJet printer, this process is similar for each of the four toner colors.

The developed image then advances to the transfer station, where the drum contacts the paper or other print media and the toner image is electrostatically transferred onto the paper. After transfer, the print media passes through the fuser, where heat and pressure are applied and the toner fuses (melts) onto the print media. The print media is then delivered to the output bin, ready for use.

To summarize, to create the printed image the print media must be transported through the printer, charged electrostatically, and heated. This is why print media properties such as cleanliness, electrical resistivity, caliper, finish, moisture content, and stiffness can affect the print quality and media-handling performance of your HP LaserJet printer.
