I bought this because I already have an HP laser printer which is far and away the best printer I have ever owned. I am sure this all-in-one is a solid HP product. But I am writing this review to alert buyers that this is an "all-in-one-minus-one. I hope to prevent a mistake similar to mine.

The "no flatbed scanner" in a couple of reviews did not sink in as I was shopping late at night, so I ordered the machine.

When the machine arrived, the light dawned: YOU CAN ONLY COPY USING THE AUTOMATIC SHEET FEEDER. There is NO WAY to copy a page from a book or any non-normal paper source. Thanks to Amazon for their reasonable return policy, but I''m out the cost of 2-way shipping for my dumb mistake. Hopefully this will alert those looking for a more versatile copier of this regrettable limitation.

Buy HP LaserJet 3015 All-in-One Now

I previously owned a couple of HP electronic products and I was satisfied with their performance. I wanted a multi-function printer so I bought the Laserjet 3015.

The first time I installed the software, I had no problem with the printer, copier and fax functions. But I could not get the HP Toolbox to load and the scanner would not work. For three mornings, I was on the phone with HP support, trying to figure out how to solve the problem. I downloaded exe files from HP''s website and installed them as instructed but that did not help. It was only after the third try and working with a third support rep that I was finally able to make it work.

My only wish is that I bought a system with a flatbed scanner but for the price, I can live with what I have. It''s now working fine with me and I am happy.

I bought this machine to use in my real estate business since I needed the better cost per sheet on toner vs. ink jet and I wanted to consolidate equipment into one machine. I was previously somewhat sour on all-in-one machines, but this has been a dream. It works flawlessly and there were days I really put it to the test. Great print quality, fax is quick, document feeder works well. I never had to ''babysit'' faxes to be sure it wouldn''t pull multiple pages through at a time. The printer was very versatile for full page all the way to envelopes and greeting cards. I highly recommend this printer!

Want HP LaserJet 3015 All-in-One Discount?

I recently worked for a company that provided me the HP 3015 for the home office they set up for me. I just left the company and sadly had to turn in my office equipment, including the HP 3015 laser printer. I have two personal inkjet printers and a scanner, but I wanted to have a good laser printer for my big projects. Although it''s not a color laser printer, I found this product to be a workhorse when it comes to printing out large quantities of paper. My previous experience with this printer, lead me back to it when I started looking for a good all-in-one to suit my needs. It never failed me in the time that I had used it. Setting it up only took a few minutes (mainly because I was already familiar with it), but it still is an easy machine to learn, whether it be for printing reports, faxing, scanning, or copying. I would recommend this to anyone who needs to print out large quantities of good quality work. If you need a flat bed scanner, perhaps a another machine might suit your needs. Fortunately, I already have an HP flatbed scanner that already fills that bill. The 3015 is a great product. You can also find replacement cartridges for around $45 if you look diligently.

This is to answer previous post/question by Edward Johnsen, if HP-3015 can FAX directly from computer software.

I am also in research for a "all-in-one" reasonable price solution, and the HP-3015 seems to "fit-the-bill". I wrote to HP support regarding this inquiry and I got a satisfying response as the following:

Based on the information you supplied in your e-mail, you are asking about faxing software for your HP LaserJet 3015.

Yes, the printer has Send Fax software which enables you to fax from the desktop. The document at the link below provides an overview of the options available for this product:

In summary, the answer is YES.
