A Closer Look At The HP LaserJet 3050 Printer
Ranked #66,284 in Computers & Electronics, #1,026,418 overall
Examining the HP LaserJet 3050 printer using HP 3050 ink and toner will reveal to one considering purchasing this fine multifunction (copy/scan/print/fax) Hewlett-Packard machine a model fully capable in all aspects. Given the range of capabilities this device demonstrates across the board, it is a little surprising that it's only selling for between $180 and $350 retail and new in the box.
Work With The Right Office Equipment
For any entrepreneur out there thinking about going with a multifunction printer, rather than purchasing four different machines to handle everything in the small office or home office, it's sure to be a powerful attractant knowing that several hundred dollars can be saved. Keep in mind, though, that any multifunction or all-in-one is based on the concept of compromise in terms of what it does and doesn't do.
The LaserJet 3050 is a true monochrome laser printer and it also is fairly durable, rated as it is at about 7,000 impressions per month when it comes to its duty cycle. For those who don't know, an "impression" means that the machine has printed out or copied a single piece of paper one time. Once it hit's the 7,000 sheet duty limit, it'll require a small amount of regular maintenance.
It is also a fairly lightweight unit, coming in at only 20.5 pounds. Additionally, Hewlett-Packard seems to have designed this machine to sit comfortably on a desktop or underneath a computer desk, seeing as it is only about 18 inches high and 17 inches wide. It should be able to sit out of the way and carrying out its tasks with little notice required.
Print speed with the device is actually a very strong selling point, and this multifunction printer matches up well with stand-alone laser printers. In fact, its 19 pages per minute a print speed exceeds most other laser printers in this price range by about four pages per minute. Additionally, print quality is excellent, delivered as it is in 1,200 dpi resolution with the HP LaserJet compatible toners.
Onboard paper storage is excellent, considering this is a multifunction unit. It has a 250-sheet automatic input tray and it can hold up to 100 sheets of output product, either from the copier or the included fax machine. The fax machine uses a 33.6 kb per second internal modem to handle its duties, and it can hold up to 110 pages within its memory.
It connects via a high-speed USB port, and the 3050 can run off of several different operating systems, including Linux, Windows (XP, 2000, Server 2003 etc.) and Mac OS 10.3 and later. This makes the HP 3050 a fairly versatile machine when it comes to operating system compatibility. It also has a standard 64 MB of memory, which should be more than enough for most any application.
After spending a few minutes with the HP LaserJet 3050 printer, and giving its various functions a fair shake, one is only left surprised by the fact that it's possible to purchase this multifunction printer new for around $180 from certain retail outlets. Even at its list price, one will be getting a machine that can handle most of its functions quite capably, which is certainly the most powerful attraction for anyone needing an affordable multifunction unit.
There's sure to be no criticism about the HP 3050 bulk toner as HP, with their devices and HP printer toner, set the standards instead of chasing them. Home business owners will appreciate the savings to be had when purchasing online toners cartridges.
