HP LaserJet 1020 Printer —
It is not the best printer in the world. It even is not the best laser printer. But it does the job for me.
Its first advantage is its price. It is affordable for everyone with a price of around $170-190. It is also very economical. With FastRes 1200 dpi effective print quality, HP LaserJet 1020 produces high quality of text and images. The technologies in this printer allow the user to print everything from business documents to clipart images at a very low cost. Its cartridge allows to print up to 2, 000 pages.
The second important thing is that it is very compact. I have very little place in my home office so I needed a compact printer. Its dimensions are 370 by 242 by 209 mm (W by D by H).
And it is quite fast - it prints 15 pages per minute and delivers the first page in less than 10 seconds.
It has two input slots: one for 150 sheets and one primary slot for 1 sheet and one output slot for 100 sheets. It supports nearly all paper formats: I have used it for printing on plain paper, envelopes, postcards (yes - even postcards!), labels, etc.
The printer is very easy to use - you just insert the cartridge, plug it in and it is ready for work!
There is no need to say the cartridge replacement is easy.
I would recommend it to you all!
