The HP Deskjet 6940 is aimed at the small business market and is a stylishly designed unit with brushed metal effect finish to the plastics...The 6940 feels well-built and looks good with its clean lines and simple design...It might not seem like the most important factor but this front hinge is tempered so that it rises and falls smoothly and this adds to the overall feeling of quality that the Deskjet 6940 offers...We had the Deskjet 6940 up and running over our network within two minutes...
