How The Hp LaserJet 1018 Printer Works
Ranked #66,281 in Computers & Electronics, #1,026,541 overall
The fully featured HP LaserJet 1018 printer using LaserJet 1018 ink and toner demonstrates that Hewlett-Packard has lost none of its touch when it comes to building a nice black and white laser printer for a small office or home office environment. The 1018 does this job particularly well, as do most HP printers in this market segment. It's also able to produce extremely nice looking documents and letters with its high-quality print capability.
Great For Your Home Office
In the industry, this laser printer was known as being the smallest around for quite some time. It also listed for about $150 before discounts, making it an exceptional value for the price. In looking at the overall dimensions of the 1018, one is instantly impressed by its light weight (11 pounds) and how nicely it snuggles up to a computer on a desktop, which is the environment it seems most suited to.
Print speed with the 1018 is acceptable at 12 pages per minute using HP printer toners; the 1018 is really not a speed demon in this regard. Perhaps that might be due to the fact that the printer works so hard to deliver excellent quality printing by using its 234 MHz processor to the fullest in order to fulfill that role, which helps to explain its relatively low rate of print speed.
In looking at the 1018 as a whole, after taking it out of the box, it's clear that it will also be fairly easy to get up and running and pretty much no time at all. It's a "plug and play" printer, meaning that it will install its software drivers and owners manual directly after it's been plugged into the computer via means of its USB port. There's no cable, though, so make sure to pick one up.
In general, it seems that the 1018 will handle just about any sort of print task that has to do with text quite well, including putting out excellent-looking printing with as small a size as four-point font. Graphics will come out looking acceptable enough for general business use, which is the role it looks like this printer was intended to play when it comes to those kinds of print jobs.
The 1018 will make good use of just about any Windows-based operating system, including both the 64 bit and 32-bit versions of Vista. Will also be able to hold 150 sheets are more of paper within its auto load tray and another 10 sheets in a special priority slot. It can print on most types and sizes of paper and media stock, including envelopes and labels and also custom-sized paper.
When it comes to print resolution, the 1018 is fine enough at 600 dots per inch but it also can be wrapped up to 1200 dots per inch through use of a special image enhancement tool that Hewlett-Packard has included within the 1018. It'll also take only about 10 seconds for a print task to emerge. Additionally, it's a fairly durable unit, coming with a 3000 page per month duty cycle.
In all, especially given its price (new models are currently going for around $250 with refurbished units able to be found for as little as $110), the HP LaserJet 1018 printer is well within the reach of even the most budget-limited small business or home office entrepreneur. Hewlett-Packard delivers decent print speed and excellent quality in the print product, making this a fine printer for most customers. Cartridges will need to be purchased occasionally. LaserJet 1018 compatible toners is cheapest online. Just find a website that sells HP LaserJet cartridges and you should be set.
