The HP Color LaserJet CP4005n Printer Prints Vivid Photos

Ranked #66,264 in Computers & Electronics, #1,026,354 overall

Taking stock of the HP Color LaserJet CP4005n printer using Color LaserJet CP4005n toner cartridges reveals a machine ready to go across a broad spectrum of print tasks and performance criteria. Hewlett-Packard seems to have built this particular printer to accommodate the work needs of just about any sort of workgroup looking for a black-and-white and color printer. It might not be the cheapest printer on the block, but neither is it the most expensive.

It'll Make You Wanna Print!

Print speeds with the 4005n is excellent in both black and white and color, with the printer able to deliver up to 25 pages per minute in color while exceeding that mark by five pages per minute when it comes to black and white. For a workgroup or work team needing access to speedy print ability for complex tasks, it'll be hard to find a printer in this price range that could do much better.

Altogether, it seems obvious that Hewlett-Packard created the 4005n to produce the maximum number of copies in the shortest length of time possible. From the time the first print job is sent to the printer until this time the first page from that printer emerges is only about 12 seconds and with 600 dots per inch resolution with HP Color LaserJet toner cartridge, the print job will look more than acceptable.

Almost every IT specialist assigned the task of joining this particular machine to a network will be pleased at how easy it will be to do. It comes with connectivity capability that is standard nowadays, including a USB and Ethernet 10/100 port. It doesn't come with wireless ability, but that's not what HP has designed this printer to be able to do.

With a robust 128 MB of RAM onboard, it's nice to know that a full 512 MB is available should a workgroup require that much memory. It's most likely the case, though, that 128 MB should do just fine. It'll all be run by a very nice 533 MHz microprocessor, which will keep any print jobs prioritized correctly and then print out as they come in.

The 4005n has been designed to be able to handle around 600 sheets of paper, with up to 1100 of storage available when all optional and standard paper trays are used. The variety of paper and other media materials that can be handled is excellent, with envelopes, transparencies, labels and even high-gloss paper taken care of with ease.

Monthly duty cycle when it comes to the 4005n is notable for its high number -- especially given the relative inexpensiveness of the printer -- coming in at 80,000 pages per month. The higher the duty cycle number, the lower the frequency of required maintenance activities that'll be needed. HP says it can print between 2,000 and 6,000 pages per month before needing even the slightest amount of very minor maintenance as well.

In total, the HP Color LaserJet CP4005n printer seems to come at one fully loaded and ready to go. It is a relatively high-speed, high quality printer and current pricing for it is running between $900 and $1600, depending on whether or not one is buying a refurbished or a new model. It runs off of a wide variety of different operating systems, including Mac OS 10.2 and later. It does many things well and almost nothing poorly. Compatible toner is the ink that the printer uses. HP Color LaserJet toner cartridge is found online or in stores. Just make sure to get HP CP4005n compatible toners so it is compatible.
