HP CP1025nw Printer Review

The HP LaserJet CP1025nw works with Windows, Linux, Solaris and Mac operating systems making it an easy fit into a number of different offices. With a size of 15.7x15.8x9.9 inches, it hardly takes up any space in the small office, but the 26.67 pound weight may be a little annoying to some.

Inside the laser printer, buyers will find four HP CP1025nw toner cartridges, filled with cyan, magenta, black and yellow printer toner. The black LaserJet CP1025nw toner cartridges last about 1,200 pages, while the color toners last 1,000 pages. For most small offices replacement won't need to happen often, thanks to the machine's maximum monthly duty cycle of 15,000 pages. The recommended monthly duty cycle is only 200 to 850 pages.

HP CP1025nw toner will print with high quality of resolutions on a plethora of media types. Bond paper, color paper, brochure paper, glossy paper, letterhead paper, plain paper, photo paper, preprinted paper, recycled paper, rough paper, transparencies, envelopes, labels and cardstock are all supported by the machine. The unit comes standard with a 150-sheet input tray and 50-sheet output tray.

A buyer's biggest complaint about this machine will no doubt be its speed. When printing in black-and-white speeds of only 16 pages per minute can be reached, and speeds when printing using the color LaserJet CP1025nw toner are even slower at 4 pages per minute. The first page out times are 15.5 seconds and 27.5 seconds when using black printer toner and color HP CP1025nw toner, respectively. These speeds are far below what's expected of machines like this and much slower than a lot of the competition. For businesses where speed is essential, the CP1025nw just won't do. For offices with a lot of patience, though, it should work just fine. Overall consumers rate the machine highly, loving how simple it is to use and setup.
