The HP LaserJet 2500 is a color laser printer for budget-conscious buyers who want to move from inkjet to laser at a low price. With its monthly duty cycle of 30,000 pages, it is capable of fairly high volume printing; though offices that truly need to do high-volume printing may find the speed too slow for multiple users, though it is fast for the price. The printer includes a 250-sheet input tray which is more than enough for a small office.
Speaking of print speeds, the HP LaserJet 2500 comes in at around 16 pages per minute for black and 4 pages per minute for color. This is actually quite impressive for a budget-priced laser printer of this class, and should be more than adequate for small offices. Print quality is excellent, with sharper text than would be expected for the price, and decent graphics printing.
The HP LaserJet 2500 toner cartridges have a fairly good page yield of 4,000 pages per color HP 2500 toner and 5,000 pages per black HP 2500 toner. On the control panel of the HP LaserJet 2500, four lights--one for each toner color--indicate when toner cartridge levels run low. To change an HP LaserJet 2500 toner cartridge, open the front panel, press a button on the side control panel to rotate the carousel, and then lift out the expired cartridge
Sharing the printer over a network can be accomplished in a few ways. First, it can be connected by USB to a PC that can then share the printer across the network. Second, an expansion card with a built-in ethernet port can be purchased and installed, allowing the unit to be connected directly to the network without the need for a PC. And lastly, the 2500n model has the ethernet port included, so buyers who need that option may consider that when purchasing.
Overall, the HP Color LaserJet 2500 is a solid choice for a budget laser printer that will save money both upfront and in the long run with its economical ink usage. For small offices that need good quality and speed, especially those looking to move up from an inkjet printer, the HP 2500 makes a great choice and will fit their needs quite nicely.
