Printer description

The HP Deskjet 670C printer contains two cartridges, one for black printing and one for color printing. So it is possible to print in either black or color, without switching cartridges. With the HP Deskjet 670C printer, the documents will be finished quickly--up to 4 pages-per-minute in black, up to 1.5 pages-per-minute in color. Reports, brochures, and newsletters are easy and efficient with manual two-sided printing. Whatever the printing needs, this printer makes it easy. It is possible to select from a wide variety of papers and media, including plain and premium paper, envelopes, transparencies, index cards, and labels.

The HP Deskjet 670C printer includes HP’s RealLife Imaging system for true-to-life images. That means crisp black text and photo-quality color will appear on all the printed documents. As an added feature, it is possible to produce spectacular color automatically with HP’s exclusive Colorsmart technology.

Versatility is a given with this printer. Use the current DOS, Windows 3.1x, or Windows 95 software. The fast, easy, hassle-free installation will be appreciated.
