Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4050T Laser Printer
Hewlett Packard LaserJet 4050T Laser Printer offers 8 MB RAM, HP JetDirect 600N internal print server (a 10/100Base-TX fast Ethernet card), and a fast infrared receiver. The LaserJet 4050’s standard 500-sheet paper tray slides into the front of the printer; paper follows an S-path through the printer and ejects facedown into a generous 250-sheet output bin on the top of the unit. Alternately, you can flip down a tray, which handles 50 sheets, at the rear of the printer. The printer’s front also hosts a flip-down, multipurpose feed tray that can handle 100 sheets of ordinary paper as well as media ranging from 3-by-5-inch cards to legal-sized paper. The tray’s adjustable guides automatically center the paper.
Toner cartridges slide effortlessly into a large opening on top of the unit. This opening, along with well-marked access levers, also lets you access the entire paper path. Hewlett-Packard’s TonerGauge tracks the number of printed toner dots and sends an accurate reading to the control panel and the management software. The menu structure is immediately understandable, and the control panel is easy to use. On the control panel, three LED indicators show the printer’s online status, activity, and error conditions, while a series of buttons on the right allows you to maneuver through the printer’s scrollable menus.
The LaserJet 4050T’s online help system allows you to scroll through troubleshooting solutions on the control panel. The LaserJet 4050T comes with parallel and serial interfaces and two PCI-based EIO slots, Fast Infrared port, and 10/100Base-TX. HP JetDirect 600N (EIO) internal print servers for Ethernet, Token Ring, and LocalTalk interfacing are available as an option. The LaserJet 4050T’s fast infrared receiver in the rear is handy if you have a compatible notebook and like the idea of printing wirelessly from across your office. In addition to font and macro storage, a hard disk enables the LaserJet 4050T to perform several types of jobs: Private Printing, Proof and Hold, Stored Jobs, and Quick Copies.
