The
HP LaserJet Pro P1102 touches all the right bases for a personal
monochrome laser. It's small and light, it's fast, and it delivers
reasonably high-quality output across the board. It's also less
expensive than HP's last generation LaserJet P1006 Printer, which it
replaces, but with improved speed and output quality plus the addition
of WiFi as standard, so you can share it easily. Helping make up for the
low paper capacity is the convenience of a 10-sheet multipurpose tray,
which lets you print on different types of paper—checks or letterhead
for example—without having to swap out the paper in the main tray or
manually feed each page using a single-sheet manual feed.Setup and
SpeedI installed the printer using a USB connection on a system running
Windows Vista. According to HP, it also comes with drivers for Vista
64-bit; both 32- and 64-bit versions of Windows 7, XP, Server 2003, and
Server 2008; and Mac OS X version 10.4 through 10.6. In addition, HP
says you can download drivers for "nearly any Linux distribution
available today" from HP's Web site.As with most low-end mono lasers,
physical setup is easy. Find a spot for the printer, remove the packing
materials, load paper, and plug in the power cord. You then have a
choice of either plugging in the USB cable and letting the driver
install automatically from the printer or running the automated
installation program from disc and connecting the supplied USB cable
when the program tells you to. (Note that the automatic installation of
the driver stored in the printer doesn't work with the Mac, but HP says
the driver will install in all the versions of Windows that the printer
works with.)
Once installed, the P1102 works swimmingly. The engine
is rated at 19 pages per minute (ppm), which even for a personal printer
is modest by today's standards. However, the actual throughput is a
match for other printers with faster rated speeds. I timed it on our
business applications suite (using QualityLogic's hardware and software
for timing) at a total of 7 minutes 36 seconds, essentially tied with
the 23 ppm Editors' Choice Brother HL-2170W, at 7:30. Either printer is
significantly faster than anything else in its price class.
