HP's $150 Business Inkjet 1000 Printer

nodbody writes "CoolTechZone.com has reviewed HP's latest Business Inkjet 1000 printer that claims to compete against laser printers in its class with its productivity and cost effectiveness. According to the review, "The most impressive part here, apart from the sheer number of pages printed, was that the printer did not get stuck once during the entire print run. This might've been a fluke, but we don't think so. The printer looks sturdy and solid and now we know it has the performance to match it." The author further adds, "The quirk aside, frankly, we are very impressed with HP's Inkjet 1000 printer. If you want an economical and extremely fast inkjet printer (assuming you print mostly black and white documents instead of graphic intensive work), we wholeheartedly recommend this printer to anyone who's in the market for a device that costs $149.99 on average."

Very hard dto recommend inkjet for business

[TheSkepticalOptimist]

Basically, unless you can hook up an oil drum full of ink beside an inkjet printer, these printers will never be business class.

Toners have like 5000 page output counts, inkjets are measured in 100's. Also, toners are easy to replace relative to inkjet cartridges.

Also consider that color laser printers have dropped to sub $400 range, and you can also buy B/W laser printers for the same price as this inkjet, laser printer no longer have the price premium associated with them.

There is a place for a "business" class inkjet, primarily if your a graphics designer looking to proof work quickly without setting up larger poster sized inkjet printers that use both expensive ink and media, but as a general office use printer, it is very hard pressed to recommend an inkjet.
