...**What is it**
The HP 1300 is a black and white laser jet printer and was designed to replace the HP 1200
**Appearance**
The printer is quite large in size measuring 245 x 410 x 485 mm (including paper tray) and weighing 19lb. This resembles a bread bin, as do most printers, with the paper tray sticking out of the front. The printer is a creamy grey colour so it does tend to show the dirt up. The Hewlett - Packard logo is on the front of the printer ... ...amazed by how quickly the HP 1300 prints, I only sit about 1 metre away from the printer and the page is always ready printed even if I get up immediately after pressing the print button on my computer.
The LED's on the front of the printer, used for troubleshooting, are easy to understand and are all explained in the instruction manual.
**Cost**
This printer costs around £200. The printer cartridges are a little pricey at £42 but they will print ...

Advantages: FAST PRINTING,VALUE FOR MONEY Disadvantages: NONE TO MENTION
I Bought this printer as a means to an end. I needed a fast printer but did not have the money to shell out for a high end laser printer.
I eventually used my IT Provider ( TCL Reprographics ) and they advised that this was the best option for the amount of money I had to spend.
Enough about that let's get onto the printer. Firstly I was surprised how easy this was to set up, It was just a matter of unpacking the printer attaching it to the PC ... ...19 pages per minute and has a 1200 x 1200dots per inch. The best thing was it was either a USB or a parallel connection which is a great advantage as quite a lot of the printers these days only come with a USB connection which could hinder some companies as they have older machines that don't support USB.
I only bought this printer to mainly print flyers and newsletters and needed to print a fair loa per month. This printer could handle anything ...

Advantages: Quick warmup, quick printing easy to use Disadvantages: Build quality and quality of photo printing could be better.
I have been using this printer for 10 months now and it has been an excellent buy. I have had no problems with it whatsoever. It cost around £250 and was one of Hewlett Packards 'entry level' printers. It looks good and at 8.5kg it is quite light compared to some other laser printers I have used in the past. It has 2 LED's for showing when the printer is ready or if there is an error and 1 button on the front for doing a self test print so it is ... ...would have been nice).
Size wise, it could have been better, it's not very high or wide (415mmm and 253mm respectively) but the 486mm depth can be a problem if space is tight. This is due mainly to the paper tray that sticks out the front and is one of the printers downsides. It is quite flimsy and feels like it's going to break everytime you fill it with paper. Talking of flimsy, the front door that accesses the toner cartridge also feels very ...
