Fast, Full-Color Printing Options
The Deskjet 6940 isn't your average inkjet printer. This printer offers the ability to print documents and photos at up to 4800 optimized dpi resolution for exceptionally crystal-clear prints and at paper sizes of up to 8.5 x 24 inches.

The Deskjet 6940 also supports Blue tooth wireless connectivity which allows for wireless printing straight from a camera phone or PDA device with an optional wireless print adapter (not included).

5 out of 5 stars Like an Old Friend   August 19, 2010
D. Harding (Lancaster, PA)
I had an HP 6540 for over five years when it quit working. Cost me approximately $20 per year including the first set of cartridges.
I found the HP 6940, discovered it was nearly identical, and bought it. I connected it to my Windows 7 PC and before I could check on anything a box popped up telling me my printer was ready to go. And it really was. I print documents and some photos and am satisfied with the quality.



5 out of 5 stars Great Little Workhorse   August 10, 2010
Happy HP User
For a very low price this is a Great Little Workhorse for everyday office (or personal) use! Currently, I have 4 printers (1 Epson Artisan 800 for photos & scanning; 2 HP LaserJet printers for B/W printing & this HP DeskJest 6940 Inkjet Color Printer). I chose this unit to replace an HP Printer we ran nearly 7 days a week for 5 years, and the space allocated for it was too small for most printers, but this one fit right in. The ink lasts a very long time as well. It also came with an ethernet cable so printing from the Mac it's connected to is quite fast. Of course you can still connect it with a USB cable if desired. I did not get the quick start up installation guide that was supposed to be in the box, but after years of installing printers, we all pretty much know what to do. I bought it through Amazon.com and as always when making a purchase from Amazon, it was a breeze to buy, shipping was very fast & it was exactly as featured. Overall, I would highly recommend this product to anyone.

I bought this printer (6940) as a future back-up machine to a workhorse 6540 that is still going strong after 5+ years of moderate-heavy use. I've also previously purchased two others of this same model (6940) for family members, because it uses the same ink cartridges as my old machine and I've found reloading the ink cartridges myself fairly easy and very economical, using ink purchased online. With all family members on the same cartridges, it's easy to have extras ready to go. The printer is a real bargain, and I use an HP Wireless Printer Upgrade Kit to use it wirelessly.

I believe this is one of the best work horse printers for the value. This is the second one I have had, I purchased the first one four years ago and it had worked perfectly untill the end of June 2010. It is also hooked into my home network thru the "network connection built into the printer", so all the computers can access and print. I also purchased the add on so you can print on both sides of the paper, which I transfered to the new printer with no problems. I give this product "five stars" and as long as they are available, I will use this printer.


1 out of 5 stars terrible printer   July 9, 2010
M. Raum (Blacksburg, VA United States)

This printer is a piece of junk if you need to print more than 3 double-sided pages. it constantly feeds multiple pages through on the second side. everything gets out of order -- there's half a page printed here and the other half printed over there on another piece of paper. all you have is a bunch of trash at the end. it makes you furious b/c you have a printer but you can't print what you want to without babying the thing through printing a couple of pages at a time. no one has time for that sort of nonsense. i had the same problem with my last hp printer which is why i got the new one. i guess double sided printing is just a lot to ask from the engineering wizards on the deskjet team. I know it's not their most expensive printer but it should at least be able to provide the functionality it is purported to have. I want to throw this thing off a cliff. if you buy this printer i hope your experience is much better than mine has been.
