Hp Laserjet 4100 Expandable 250 Mhz Monochrome Printer

The HP LaserJet 4100 series is a set of monochrome laser printing machines designed

not only to operate with impressive speed and power, but to offer users complete customization over their hardware with options such as an additional paper tray and network card for Ethernet support. The base model 4100 also comes stock with a range of unique features of its own such as data retention.

When either an optional internal hard drive is incorporated into the HP LaserJet 4100s hardware, or an increase in memory totaling at least 32 MBs, HPs Rip Once data retention options become active. When in use, frequently used information can be stored internally in the device and reproduced quickly. While the memory is expandable up to 265 MBs, the devices standard 16 MBs of built in memory is not enough to activate the feature.

In the 4100s three model variations with standard upgrades, the HP LaserJet 4100n, HP LaserJet 4100tn, and HP LaserJet 4100dtn, 32 MBs is standard, and would be expected for a model of this type considering that all three of the upgrades include network options. With the additional demands required of an Ethernet device, simultaneous input sources could potentially cause significant slowdown.

Other optional improvements found in the upgraded models include an additional 500 sheet paper tray and an automatic duplexor. On the models with additional trays, or upgraded base models, the HP LaserJet 4100s total paper storage capacity totals 1,100 sheets, which includes the 100 additional sheets found in the devices priority feed slot.

Available for separate purchase is a 75 page envelope feeder which is perfect for businesses that require a large amount of custom postage. The external automatic duplexor can also be added to any of the models lacking it, and makes double sided printing completely mechanical, saving users time, and reducing paper costs by as much as half.

With HPs Ultra Precise toner, ProRes 1200 dot per inch resolution is selectable for maximum quality, and FastRes 1200 can also be chosen for optimal speed, though quality will suffer to a very small degree. When FastRes is in use, the advertised print speed becomes up to 25 pages per minute for letter sized paper, and up to 24 pages per minute for legal sized, making the HP LaserJet 4100 one of the faster small office printers on the market.

A 250 MHz built in RISC processor should keep print speeds high even under network stress, while HPs Instant On fuser keeps warm up time at zero and first page out time at only 12 seconds. The units incredible monthly duty cycle of 150,000 imprinted pages suggests that even under constant abuse, the HP LaserJet 4100 will function without incident.

As a small to medium sized office workgroup printer, the HP LaserJet 4100 functions adequately, though its price range most likely prevents it from being ideal for home use. Its bulkiness contributes to this as well, but should be no problem for an office building with any reasonable amount of workspace.
