Hp Color Laserjet Cp1215 ? Very Affordable Color Laser Printer
As one of the most affordable color laser printers on the market today, the HP Color LaserJet CP1215 makes color laser technology available even to a small home business, or personal user. Though speed and power specifications are conservative, the overall cost of the unit makes it appealing for any buyer, regardless of the size of your operation.
Though the HP Color LaserJet CP1215’s print speeds run at only a reasonable pace of 12 pages per minute in black and white and 8 pages per minute in color, for lower output demands, operation speeds at this level should serve just fine, and the ability to incorporate color printing into your hardware is impressive enough as is.
First page out times run at 24 seconds for black and white, and 30 seconds for color, so single prints will definitely take considerable amounts of time, and yet the HP Color LaserJet CP1215’s other operating statistics are quite impressive all across the board. With paper handling locked at a reasonable 150 sheets via input tray, and output capacity ranking at up to 125 sheets via a face down tray, small to medium sized projects should not pose a problem concerning constant paper refills or overflows. Like many bargain units on the market, the input capacity is not expandable.
Interestingly, though no additional multi purpose tray is included with the unit, the HP Color LaserJet CP1215 boasts compatibility with an incredibly long list of media types including letter, legal, executive, envelope (No 10, Monarch), bond, brochure, color, glossy, letterhead, photo, plain, preprinted, pre punched, recycled, and rough, as well as transparencies,

a3 Color Laser Printer ? Get the Facts
An a3 color laser printer is easier to find than expected. Many different manufacturers make an a3 color laser printer. Let’s take a look at the facts about a3 size paper first and then discuss which manufacturers currently have an a3 color laser printer to offer.
a3 and a4 are international paper standards (ISO paper sizes) that are used throughout the world except for in North America. a3 paper actual size is 11.69 x 16.54 inches (297 x 420 millimeters), while an a4 actual size is 8.27 x 11.69 inches (210 x 297 millimeters). If an a3 is folded in half along the short side, it will be the size of an a4.
When looking for an a3 color laser printer, don’t assume since a printer will print 11×17 inch (also called tabloid, ledger or wide formatted) paper that it will also print a3 paper. a3 is slightly larger than 11×17 inches and manufacturers will specify whether their color laser printer supports a3 printing.
For individuals and businesses based in the US and Canada who work with the international community, an a3 color laser printer is a must have. Documents that are produced for business associates in the US and Canada will need to be converted for a3 or a4 printing for international business associates. Converting an 8.5×11 inch sheet to a4 or an 11×17 inch sheet to a3 before printing may require changing the margins, changing the font size or editing the contents. This will be based on how complicated the contents of the document are that is to be printed on the a3 color laser printer.
A separate printer is not needed to handle a3 paper. Almost every manufacturer produces an a3 color laser printer. But verify that on the printer specifications a3 is listed. An a3 color laser printer can be bundled with multi functional features like faxing, copying and scanning or used for only printing. a3 printing is available on both personal printers and very large workgroup printers.
