4.0 out of 5 stars Laserjet 4300 New 2003 HP line, January 14, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: HP LaserJet 4300 Monochrome Printer (Office Product)

The Good:

Very fast very clear, 6-10 seconds to print 1st page. I got an avg. of 51 pages per min. (HP says 45 PPM)

1200 x 1200 dpi with REt, UltraPrecise toner, HP ProRes 1200, HP FastRes 1200.

Paper: 10 envelopes-optional envelope feeder for 75 envelopes, Letter, legal, executive, No. 10 envelopes, Monarch envelopes,(plain, letterhead, prepunched, bond, color, preprinted, recycled), transparencies, labels, card stock, user-defined up to 20lb media weight.

Memory: 4300 64MB. 4300dtn,4300dtns, 4300dtnsl, 4300n, 4300tn 80MB. Max Memory 416MB

Get the base model 4300 and add the print server card (JetDirect 615N). The price is better. Memory is not expensive now so you can add 128MB if you need more than 64MB, that will be less than buying the 4300 w/ the print server.

The Bad:

IEEE 1284-compliant parallel interface port, NO USB. NO Print to/from Bluetooth, infrared built in.

One-year limited warranty; RETURN to HP ONLY You will pay to ship this 65lb Monster to HP for repair.

5.0 out of 5 stars old model 4200 a dream for approx. US$350 with rebates, September 27, 2004

Prior personal lasers (all HP)- 4ML, 5L, 1100, 1012 before this workhorse 4200. Superceded by 4300 recently (HP refresh 70% of printer range every 2 years!)- so some mega discounts available- I paid only $350 US new with 2 rebates!

Ultimately it/s about being recognised by the computer reliably (I have now dumped Windows XP (the virus crash monster on a Dell laptop) for OSX on an iMac G5- a lot less temperamental with *forgotten* printers); cheap page cost (about the lowest of HP/s stable approx 1 cent us per page versus 4 cents us for a 1012 or 1100); and speed/quality (true 1200dpi at 35ppm).

Ok- it/s big and heavy, a bit noisy, yet superfast, with many options for autoduplexing/stapling etc. 2 months in, am very happy with this printer. Did upgrade a jetdirect connectivity for USB etc.. at about $100us
