HP 9050 Printer Review

The HP LaserJet 9050 laser printer is designed for the high-volume office environment. It supports wide format size media and has expandability options to meet any need. Lack of built-in networking is a disappointment, even with upgrade options available. However, it is a serious upgrade from the HP 5550 toner printer.

Despite its design as an enterprise-level machine, the HP 9050 laser printer does not have networking support built in as a standard feature. The 9050n model has networking built-in, and the 9050dn model has both networking and duplexing (two-sided printing) included.

The unit offers a number of expandability options that allow it to adapt to the particular needs of an office or its users. The initial paper capacity is 1,000 sheets, with two 500-sheet drawers. The total paper capacity can be expanded to a maximum of 3,000 sheets by adding a 2,000-sheet additional tray. These additional trays do add considerable bulk to an already large machine, but this will likely not be a problem in large office environments. The lack of color may be a problem for some- if that is the case, check out the LaserJet 1600 toner printer.

A 533 mhz processor is built in for fast efficient processing without slowdowns. The initial 128 MB of RAM should be enough memory for most offices, but it can be expanded to a maximum of 512 MB for graphics-heavy documents or very large documents.

HP LaserJet 9050 toner cartridges have a large capacity of 30,000 pages, which makes HP 9050 toner cartridges very economical, as they have a low cost per page. Laser toner cartridges are easy to replace, and the unit has a toner save mode to help get more value from each printer ink toner cartridge. Print speed is a blazing fast 50 pages per minute, which will keep a busy office humming right along. Text quality is very sharp and detailed, and graphics are above average.

Overall, the HP 9050 will meet the demands of even the most fast-paced office environment. Its print quality, speed, and reliability make it an excellent choice.
