HP LaserJet 4050 Printer Reviews

Summary: Reliable, long lasting toner, minimal jams, great office equipment!
Comment: I have at least one to two of this model printer in the offices I work at because they are so reliable, and need minimal maintenence. The toner last for many sheets of printing (never counted, but I know I probably go more than 1000 sheets at least). The printer rarely jams (except when I used really cheap thin paper), and the secretaries love the sheet feed selection if having to use overhead paper for a letter. The quality of the print (i believe up to 1200dpi) is great for black and white. Highly recommended investment, quite likely one of the last printers your office will need.

Summary: not a single complaint
Comment: I've had the opportunity to use this printer (home use) for the past 2 years (it was my roommate's). The thing is so fantastic and dependable I forget it's even there; I think that's the true measure of an excellent product - when using it becomes completely transparent. I've come to expect this top-notch quality and dependablility; I have no idea what I'm going to buy to try and replace it now that I'm moving out.

Changing the toner cartridge is a walk in the park. It takes longer to fill an ice cube tray. There are so many flaps and doors on the thing that clearing a paperjam (of which we had one over the past 2 years, and it was my fault for loading the paper crooked) was simple and quick. I especially like the separate loader tray that easily accepts envelopes, cards and (my favorite) CD labels. After you're done with the loader tray, it folds up into the unit.

We also have the 4050 TN's (has an additional paper tray) at work - I can attest that these puppies can handle a seriously high volume of print jobs - flawlessly. I don't know what the pages-per-minute number is, but I can't imagine you needing anything to be much faster.

Summary: Speed, Quality, Reliability
Comment: I recently purchased the 4050 from Amazon and couldn't be more pleased with the quality, ease of installation and use of this printer. The 1200 dpi is spectacular and halftones look great. The built-in Postscript capability is a godsend and I can't believe the speed with which the 4050 delivers copies! Although a printed manual would have been an asset, I haven't needed to look at the documentation disk. I highly recommend this printer for those who need a high-volume, top quality machine.

Summary: This is a fantastic machine!
Comment: H-P covered the bases with this printer. I have used H-P at my office for years but bought this one for home use. It has printed abut 5,000 copies, flawlessly, so far. It is very easy to set up and operate. The controls are clear and easy to work--if you want to abort a printing job, it can be done by pressing one orange button--act of Congress not required. So far it has not ruined a print--not one. Thanks H-P for this product. (No, I don't work for Hewlett-Packard.)
