The Pro L7380 is good for small organizations

Strengths: Very good quality output and ability to handle bulk jobs

Weaknesses: No networking option...which is really strange

Don’t balk at the size of the HP Officejet Pro L7380....I agree with you that is a quite large but the Pro L7380 puts its size to good use by offering features which rock solid and designed to work like a dream. The L7380 is very suitable for bulk print outs and per page costs are also quite reasonable. Furthermore, the HP OfficeJet Pro also offers good multifunctional features including high quality scanning and a stable fax option.

Even with these positive points, the Officejet Pro L7380 is not without issues and one of them almost feels like a major oversight on the part of HP designers. Considering the fact that Officejet Pro L7380 is designed for work groups, it comes without any networking options. This is a major flaw in the printer and it pays for it dearly by loosing interested customers. The other downside has already been mentioned earlier and that is the bulky size of the printer which might not be possible to keep in all offices and there is tough competition from smaller printer with similar features and performance from the likes of Canon.

I would still recommend the HP Officejet Pro L7380 to anyone looking for a good working solution as this one is designed to take care of all requirements in a small office. The pricing of the product is also reasonable and the performance can be rated eight on ten and is probably one of the better multifunctional printers around. What I appreciate is the fact that the HP Pro L7380 also manages to LOOK a lot better than some of the larger HP desktop printers and the black and silver look is really appreciated!
