HP 2230 Printer Review

The HP Business Inkjet 2230 is a color printer designed for small businesses, hence the name. It has everything a small office could want in a single purpose device. It can print black text up to 15 pages per minute, 14 pages per minute with color printer ink mixed in and 6 pages per minute for a full page done in color HP 2230 ink. This inkjet unit is compatible with Windows and Mac and has networking and ethernet options.

The 2230 is not a small piece of machinery, weighing 22 pounds and measuring 20.2x8.2x20.3 inches. In the early 2000s when it was first manufactured, the price tag was around $400. This seems expensive, but for the fastest inkjet printer with the highest quality results, testing better than anything available at that time, it makes sense why any small business would be willing to pay that much. High volume businesses were especially drawn to it because of the long lifespan of the print heads and the Business Inkjet 2230 ink and a duty cycle of 10,000 pages a month.

Four separate print heads and HP 2230 ink cartridges go inside this printer, making replacements less wasteful and more cost effective. The Business Inkjet 2230 ink cartridges have a page yield of 1,750 and can print at a maximum resolution of 1200x600 dpi. The high capacity printer ink tanks save consumers money, knocking the per page price down to 2 cents.

Reviews for this unit are very good. Experts and consumers alike enjoy the high speed and quality as well as the low cost of printing thanks to the high capacity of HP 2230 ink. Even though this printer is old, it was ahead of its time then and can still hold up to newer models now.
