HP Toner

HP announced last month breakthroughs in HP Toner that allow customers to get color printing quality comparable to offset printing.

This is a formulation of toner that, according to HP, “will deliver 117% higher gloss, and 39% wider color gamut, previously unseen in HP Color LaserJet printing.” The ColorSphere toner allows customers to “greatly improve print quality for documents”, and produce – for the first time – realistic photos.

It would be a good thing if HP gets to make laser printers produce realistic photos. This is HP’s cutting edge toner technology developed to provide consistent quality and reliability at high print speeds (up to 62 pages per minute). The new toner formulation increases the precision of toner placement; it also requires 15% less power to reach fusing temperature. This results in a 10% to 15% more efficient energy consumption per page by printer.

Also, HP introduced 4 new Dual Pack options:
C4127D
C8061D
Q1338D and
Q2612AD black cartridge Dual Packs.
The trick with HP’s Dual packs is that they are said to cost up to 37 percent less, while having three times the print volume over standard cartridges.
