HP COLOR LASERJET CP2025N COLOR TONER CARTRIDGES SET

HP Color LaserJet CP2025n Review

Overview:

The HP Color LaserJet CP2025n enables businesses to print in style with the network-able components.  HP created this printer with faster speeds and better technology than its predecessors.  The printer is economically-friendly and uncomplicated to use.  The printer is relatively small at 15.9-inches wide, 12.7-inches tall, and 17.9-inches deep.  This boxy-sleek designed printer weights 50 pounds and will fit nicely upon any office hutch.

Pros:

The HP Color LaserJet CP2025n is suitable for businesses and small work-groups.  Managers can connect two or more computers via wired network components.  Everything connectible is in the back of the printer; a power plug, Ethernet port, and USB port.  Businesses may find it refreshing to utilize a router for the printer's networking needs.  The printer utilizes standard 2 trays for paper handling; a 50-sheet tray and a 250-input sheet tray.  If a capacity of 300-pages is not enough, give thanks to the optional 250-sheet tray add-on.  The recommendation of 750-2000 pages per month is appropriate for smaller business needs, if not, the printer can accommodate up to 40,000 pages per month.  If a business needs to print up to 40,000 pages per month, the business should shoot for a higher-end laser printer; this one would not be ideal.

The printer manufactures adequate, impressionable prints at a resolution of 600 x 600 dots per inch.  Running on a processor speed of 540 MHz and a standard memory of 128 Mega Bytes (upgradeable to a maximum of 384 Mega Bytes), it has decent print speeds approximating to 21 pages per minute with no trade-off between Black or Color documents.   Despite the printer's lack thereof, the printer has redeemable qualities like its toolbox with helpful features, instructions, and settings.  The front-end of the printer incorporates a 2-line LCD that displays information like low-ink, a cancel button, right and left directional pad, and other relative information.

The standard printer languages are PostScript 3 emulation, HP PCL 5c, and HP PCL 6.  Printing runs on HP ImageREt 3600 technologies.  There are three sets of ImageREt technologies; ImageREt 2400 (High Quality), ImageREt 3600 (Professional Quality), and ImageREt 4800 (Commercial Quality).  Image REt 3600 utilizes a dual-beam high resolution scanner and an accurate print mechanism.  It has exceptional color and image enhancement features like Halo Reduction, Adaptive Halftoning, Color Ret, and Trapping.   HP ImageREt 3600 technologies are imperative for producing sharpened image enhancements for marketing security and general office productivity.  Higher resolution guarantees smaller granularity aspects but fails to meet the sophistication of pinpointing elements of image quality that need improvement.  This is where HP ImageREt 3600 comes to mind.  The technologies incorporated will encompass problem areas not fixed by higher resolution.  Dots per inch and resolution are only a minimal, but significant, part of what assures quality-development.  

The positives of this printer substantially outweighs its negatives.  The bottom-line?  This printer is a workhorse for businesses whom need a meticulous work atmosphere.  Most people are impressed and satisfied with the printer's output quality and decent speeds.  The printer is compatible with most modern Windows, Macintosh, and Linux systems.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the printer lacks an auto-duplexer; software does instruct the user on how to achieve duplex prints manually.  The USB port cannot be utilized to print directly from secondary devices like digital cameras.  Therefore, it is lacking the valued PictBridge functionality.  There is no capability to wireless-network the device.  This printer can be considered pricey for many people.  It is a dud trade-off when its competitor printers of the same class are relatively faster.  The printing speeds is not so much as a con, but it does not fulfill hectic work-flow requirements.  This printer is intended for small businesses.  It would not hurt to see some added functionality like scan, copy, and fax.
