HP Color LaserJet CP1215

 

If you didn't work it out already, it's a colour laser printer, just spelt incorrectly. They'll work it out eventually.

HP Color LaserJet 2550L

 

The HP Color LaserJet 2550L is so compact you can hardly believe it's a colour laser printer. The neat exterior conceals a clever carousel design that...

Colour, small size, reasonable price

Slow, poor print quality, high running costs

Sleek and low-priced, the LaserJet 2550L seems promising for small offices, but its speed and print quality aren't stellar.

HP Color Laserjet 2550L Printer

 

The HP Color LaserJet 2550L is so compact, you can hardly believe it's a color laser printer. The clever carousel design squeezes everything into a surprisingly small space.

Text quality was uninspiring. Most characters looked too heavy and larger letters appeared blotchy. Color images seemed a bit dark overall, but sharp

HP LaserJet 2550 review

 

Intro Priced at less than $500, the HP Color LaserJet 2550L is a real bargain. Although it prints slowly and boasts little in the way of initial connectivity or paper capacity, the HP Color LaserJet 2550L's output is impressive. Given that you can...

Affordable; very good print quality; no-nonsense design and interface; highly expandable.

Slow color print speeds; base model has low paper capacity; no LCD on control panel.

This color printer has a bare-bones configuration and slow color print speeds, but it is extremely affordable, offers great print quality, and can be upgraded as your printing needs change.
