HP Laser Printers: A Review of the HP LaserJet Pro P1606dn Printer

Posted: Dec 30, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

There are a lot of HP laser printers, and the company has been long known to produce excellent printing devices. If you're interested in a monochrome laser printer, either for your business or your personal use, then one of the models you should definitely check out is the HP LaserJet Pro P1606dn Printer. This review will cover everything you need to know about this product.

Design

This printer doesn't look like a laser printer at all, with its compact build and its black framing. It's nice to look at especially because of its plain dark color, and its finish doesn't show much weathering and abuse. It also fits any home décor or office setting, so you can easily place it on any desk or shelf, or on your computer table. It has the dimensions of 15.24'' x 11.18'' x 9.69'' and a weight of 15.4 pounds. Because of its heaviness, it's not advisable to be moved around, and since it also has no wireless connectivity, you can't easily bring it around or separate it from your computer.

It has wired connectivity, though, and that's one important function that's very useful if you work with a lot of computers. You can access the printer through several computers so you won't have to buy a separate printer for every computer. But you have to particularly know that this is a dedicated monochrome printer, and all it can do is print black text and images, although with absolutely excellent quality.


Printing and Other Functions

Many HP laser printers are fantastic, but this dedicated monochrome printer is one of the excellent black-ink models. It can print documents to a speed of 26 pages per minute, or a mere 2.3 seconds per page. The maximum resolution of the prints is 600x600x2 dpi, which results to a 1200 dpi effective output. It features automatic duplex printing which enables you to print on both sides of paper, saving a lot of paper and easily printing out pamphlets and brochures back to back.

The printer memory is 32 MB, which lets you print a lot of documents at a single setting, and also print a very long and complex document without problems. The maximum duty cycle of the printer is 8000 pages, so you can produce 258 pages per day easily. There are two sheet feeders that can hold paper for printing. The multipurpose tray can carry up to 250 sheets and the priority feeder can hold 10 sheets.

Other Features

This printer has several extra features to make printing more convenient. There's a quiet mode which enables you to print very silently, but this slows the printing process at half the rate as compared to normal. There's also the automatic on and off technology which saves a lot of energy because you can instantly use the device after turning it on, and it automatically shuts off after a period of being idle. It's also Energy Star compliant so you can save a lot of energy as well as help preserve Mother Nature when you use this device.

Conclusion

There may be a lot of different models of HP laser printers, but the HP LaserJet Pro P1606dn Printer is one of the best monochrome laser printers that the company offers. So if you're looking for an excellent monochrome laser printer that's not only speedy, quiet, and network accessible, but also produces beautiful, crisp, and full-detailed black and white printouts, this model is what I highly recommend for you to get.
