Advantages: Good quality prints

Disadvantages: Poor design, hard to remove paper jams, prone to taking in multiple sheets, slow, only comes with 1MB of memory, discontinued.

Firstly I must note that the HP Laserjet 6L has been discontinued by HP, the current replacement at time of writing is the HP Laserjet 1100. It used to be HP's entry level laser printer.

HP said that it could print 6 pages per minute, but in reality it's very slow for a laser printer, although the quality is just as good as more expensive laser printers at 600 DPI.

It only comes with 1MB of memory, this means if it won't print complex graphics, however this is expandable to 9MB.

WIth it's poor design, paper jams can be difficult to remove as you can't get into some of the inner parts of the printer without stripping it. Also with it's 100 page (max) top loading tray, it's prone to problems of taking in more than one sheet at once.
