The HP LaserJet 4050 Printer is a black-and-white laser type of printer specifically ideal for a workgroup. Although it already carries with it the amazing 4050 printer toner cartridge and some important features to yield professional-looking printouts, there's still space for upgrading. Paper handling capacity, RAM and connectivity are some of those which can be upgraded. There's also a control panel help addition, commonly found only on high-end models.

Available in white, its form factor makes it suitable for a desktop. It has a body which measures 13.5" (height) x 19.4" (depth) x 15.4" (width) and weighs less than 40 lb. Within it is a single-chip 133 MHz NEC RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) processor. This is fast enough to provide as much as 17 pages in a minute. Additionally, with the Instant-on fuser out of ceramic inside it, the first page is out in 15 seconds.

There's an 8MB memory that contains productivity essentials such as 110 TrueType fonts and printer languages like PCL 5E, PCL 6 and PostScript 2. However, the pre-installed RAM may be expanded to a max of 192MB. This is possible due to the available 3 DIMM 100-pin slots for additional memory, fitted onto the unit's body. Likewise, an optional 2GB external hard drive may be attached to it. Such allows you extra storage for everyday print jobs, forms, languages, fonts, etc.

To help catch up with the productivity requirements of a busy office, there are two input paper trays available. There's the 100-sheet top tray and the 500-sheet bottom tray. In the future, should output demands increase, media handling capacity may be expanded. This is achieved with the optional large-capacity media trays and two-sided printing duplex unit. The 4050 is compatible with paper sizes as little as 3 in x 5 in to as large as 8.5 in x 14 in. Regular bond, transparencies, envelopes, card stocks and labels are some supported media types.

A print resolution of 1200 dpi x 1200 dpi enables rendering of clean and crisp printouts containing text or graphics. This laser also boasts of the Ultraprecise HP LaserJet cartridge and Resolution Enhancement technology developed by HP itself. Working together, it's possible to achieve output ideal for corporate presentation or other professional applications.

What this machine isn't short of is the connectivity choices that make it suitable in the modern workplace. Both the IEEE 1284 EPP/ECP and D-Sub RS-232 9-pin slots make it hassle-free to connect to a mid-size network. Additionally, it's possible to attach optional Jetdirect print servers, as well as LocalTalk and TokenRing for compatibility with multiple network operating systems. An infrared adapter (sold separately) may be attached to the unit. This allows you to print from a laptop, PDA or other infrared-enabled gadgets.

HP has set its duty cycle to 10000 pages every month. By not going beyond this recommended number of monthly impressions, printer and supplies can work optimally. The addition of a control panel help enables the operator to troubleshoot the printer right on the machine. Such feature spares you from having to call support or get a technician.

All in all, the HP 4050 with HP LaserJet 4050 ink and toner provides for your need to print everyday black-and-white office documents with professional quality. It has enough connectivity choices to make it suitable for just about any network operating system. What's more, expandability features make sure that this unit catches up with your increasing output requirements.
