Overview
HP LaserJet 2100 series printers deliver 10 pages per minute with no compromise in quality. Two paper trays boost productivity. A 66 MHz processor and 4 MB of memory are standard for fast printing of complex pages. Fast Infrared and HP Jetsend deliver quick and easy walk up printing for a variety of PCs, palmtops and other digital devices.Printer featuresFast print speed 10 pages-per-minute printing (with Intel 66 MHz 80960JD RISC-based formatter).Excellent print quality True 1200 x 1200 dots per inch (dpi) text and graphics with 163 levels of gray.Resolution Enhancement technology (REt) adjusts the size and placement of each dot on the page to produce smooth angles, curves, and edges (600 dpi only).Adjustable settings to optimize print quality.The HP UltraPrecise print cartridge part number C4096A, has a finer toner formulation, which provides sharper text and graphics.Flexible paper handling Adjustable Tray 1 for letterhead, envelops, labels, transparencies, custom-sized media, postcards, and heavy paper.Adjustable Tray 2 or an optional 250-Sheet Input Tray (Tray 3) for standard sizes of paper.Two output bins: select either the top output bin or the rear output bin for the most convenient output location. The Face-Down Output Bin, located on the top of the printer, has a 150-sheet capacity of 20-pound paper. The Face-Up Output Bin, a fold out bin located at the back of the printer, has a 150-sheet capacity of 20-pound paper.Straight-through paper path capability from Tray 1 to the rear output bin.Expandability Optional Tray 3 with a 250-sheet capacity to increase the time before it is necessary to add paper.Enhanced Input Output (EIO) cards.Dual In-line memory module (DIMM) slots for adding memory.PostScript (R) Level 2 Emulation (PS) DIMM adds PS printing. Factory installed on the HP LaserJet 2100m and 2100tn.PCL printer language and fonts Fast printing performance, built-in Intellifont and TrueType scaling technologies, built-in HP-GL/2 vector graphics, and advanced imaging capabilities are benefits of the PCL 6 printer language. This also includes 45 scalable TrueType fonts and one bitmapped Line Printer Font.PS language and fonts The HP LaserJet 2100m and 2100tn printers include the HP PS Level 2 printer language emulation with 35 built-in PS language fonts.Automatic language switching When optional printer languages (such as PS emulation) are installed, the printer automatically determines and switches to the appropriate language for the print job.Wireless infrared printing Fast infrared (IR) printing when printing from an IrDA-compliant device, such as a laptop, notebook computer, or a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA).HP Jetsend IR enabled devices can also use the IR port.Interface connections Bidirectional ECP type-B parallel port (IEEE-1284 compliant)LocalTalk portEIO SlotWireless Infrared port (IrDA compliant)Networking The printer provides an EIO Slot for HP Jetdirect 600n print servers for fast and easy connectivity.Use in Workgroups to provide flexibility, fast printing through the network, and remote management.Enhanced memory and memory expansion The HP LaserJet 2100 printer comes with 4 MB of memory and can be expanded to 52 MB with the three available memory (DIMM) slots. Most documents can be printed using the standard amount of printer memory through the aid of Memory Enhancement technology (MEt). MEt automatically compresses data, virtually doubling the printer’s memory and allowing more complex printing with available memory.The HP LaserJet 2100m and 2100tn printers come with 8 MB of memory and can be expanded to 40 MB with the two available memory (DIMM) slots. The third slot is used for the HP PS language DIMM.Energy savings The printer automatically conserves electricity by substantially reducing power consumption when not printing.As an Energy Star partner, Hewlett-Packard Company has determined that this product meets Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency.Economical printing EconoMode (600 dpi only), manual duplexing, and N-up printing let you save paper, toner, and time.Printer specificationsCharacteristic Description Print speed Up to 10 pages-per-minute Paper input bin capacity Tray 1: 100 sheets of 20 lb Bond (80 g/m2) paper, or 10 envelopes Tray 2/3: 250 sheets of 20 lb Bond (80 g/m2) paper Media Sizes Tray 1: minimum (custom) 76 by 127 mm (3 by 5 inches) maximum (custom) 216 by 356 mm (8.5 by 14 inches)Tray 2/3: Letter, Legal, A4, A5 and custom paper sizesEnvelope: Executive, B5 (ISO), B5 (JIS) Media weights Tray 1: 16 to 43 lb (60 to 163 g/m2) with straight-through paper path for special mediaTray 2/3: 16 to 28 lb (60 to 105 g/m2) Printable areaPrintable area applies to all supported media types when the driver selection matches the actual paper type in the paper tray.
