    CNET Review

    June 7, 2006

    The Good: The HP Color LaserJet 2605dtn shows excellent color and monochrome print quality, has a built-in photo card reader and duplexer, and is reasonably priced.

    Review Summary: While not exactly a speed demon, the 2605dtn finished most tests (10-page Microsoft Word, 22MB Photoshop, and four-page PDF) in roughly the middle of the pack compared to other color lasers we've recently tested. The printed output was of very good ...
