P1005
The HP LaserJet P1005 is a monochrome laser printer designed for the personal or home office user. It offers good text quality and decent speeds, but small paper capacity and lackluster graphics prints are drawbacks. An upgrade to the P1005 is the HP 1500 toner printer or the LaserJet p1006 toner printer.
The HP P1005 is a budget printer with the single user in mind, whereas printers like the Xerox C2424 ink printer are for business and graphic professionals. It is designed to be a compact and affordable solution for the user who wants laser quality without the extra bulk and price tag normally associated with laser printers. The printer measures 7.6 inches by 13.6 inches by 8.8 inches and weighs just 10.3 pounds, making it one of the smallest and lightest printers available.
The LaserJet P1005 is designed to use a minimum amount of power, with a combination of a PowerSave mode and Instant-On technology, which keeps it ready for action, but still consuming very little power. Surprisingly, for such a compact printer, it has a 233 MHz processor and 2 MB of memory, allowing it to do its own processing without relying on the host computer. The P1005 connects via USB, but does not have built-in networking support.
The HP LaserJet P1005 toner cartridges have a capacity of 1,500 pages each, and tend to be quite expensive. Current HP toner prices place printing costs at around 4 cents per page. By using third-party compatible HP P1005 toner, it is possible to bring it down to 2 cents per page or lower, which helps lower operating costs considerably. Print speed is quite good at 15 pages per minute. Other competing models offer faster speeds, even at this price, but most don't match the P1005's excellent text quality. Text is sharp and detailed, even at small font sizes. Graphics quality is a little below average, but passable for occasional use.
Overall, the HP LaserJet P1005 has a lot to offer for the personal user. It is one of the most affordable and compact printers on the market, and will appeal to users who do a lot of text and only the occasional graphics print.
