Manufacturer’s Description

The Officejet 6700 Premium e-All-in-One from HP prints up 16ppm (black) and 9 ppm (color) in 1200 dpi resolution. The printer supports paper sizes up to legal (8.5x14-inch) and can print borderless photos up to 8.5x11-inch. Thanks to its individual ink cartridges and automatic duplex printing, getting the job done at home is more affordable, whether you're printing photos, documents, or brochures. Additionally, you can easily share the printer with other computers on your network using its built-in Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity capabilities. Replace all your printers with one central networked printer to save money, space, and resources. The Officejet 6700 can even multitask (e.g. scanning and printing) so your print job doesn't have to wait for another person's scanning to complete.
