Every business in Australia can benefit from efficient office printing solutions. The right printer can save you time and money whether you’re running a startup or an established firm. You’ll even find that reliable printers, such as HP LaserJet printers, will help your workforce become more productive.

HP LaserJet Printers can help your business boost its productivity and save cash on day-to-day operations. With excellent printing quality and rapid printing speeds, our printers are a must-have asset for every business. In this guide, you’ll find out why.

The Evolution of HP LaserJet Printers

The efficient HP LaserJet printers you use today have undergone a long evolution. In the early 1980s, when the PC market was just starting to grow in popularity, we saw that our users needed a simpler way to access and use their printers.

Of course, dot matrix printers and daisy wheel printers emerged to meet these needs, but their drawbacks were clear - both were noisy and frustratingly slow.

With our understanding of inkjet and laser printer technology, we built a user-focused personal laser printer that quickly produced high-quality prints with minimal noise.

Ever since that day, we’ve adapted our printers to meet our users' requirements. Nowadays, our LaserJet printers leverage the power of AI for predictive maintenance, performance optimisations, and personalised user interactions. As our users’ needs evolve, our printers evolve, too.

Knowing how our printers have evolved, you can begin to see how they can benefit you. To truly understand the value of our LaserJet printers, you need to know more about their key features.

  1. Print Speed and Quality: Our LaserJet printers produce sharp, smudge-free text with exceptional clarity, making them handy tools for printing important documents like contracts. The only thing that matches their quality is their printing speed, which can reach up to 52 pages per minute (ppm).

  2. Energy Efficiency and Sustainability: Our printers support energy-efficient features that reduce power consumption levels via low-melt toners and Instant-On technology.

  3. Security: Our latest printers are embedded with robust security features like Code-signing and Run-time Code Integrity, keeping your printer’s firmware safe from security risks.

  4. Wireless and Mobile Printing: Our wireless models allow you to print without the need for physical connections like USB cables. This lets you enjoy seamless connectivity with many different devices, including your laptop, mobile phone, and smart tablet.

The Cost-Effectiveness of HP LaserJet Printers

Depending on the model and its features, you can pay under $170 or over $12,500 for your HP LaserJet printer. This gives you a lot of variety to choose from. While the initial price may seem daunting, the long-term savings make them well worth the investment.

For instance, the low-melt toners and automatic sleep modes standard with our printers are extremely energy-efficient. You won’t have to worry about receiving a hefty power bill. In addition to this, laser printers have a lower cost-per-page than inkjet printers - toner is cheaper than ink in the long run.

Toner cartridges also have a higher page yield than ink cartridges, which simplifies high-volume printing and means you won’t have to replace your toner cartridges as often as you would with ink. As you can imagine, this also contributes to lower maintenance costs and reduced downtime.

Enhancing Productivity with HP LaserJet Printers

Your employees’ productivity is the backbone of your business. With an HP LaserJet printer, you can enhance that productivity tenfold.

Our printers display intuitive, user-friendly interfaces that reduce the time your employees would otherwise spend mastering a steep learning curve.

Our printers also produce nothing less than high-quality outputs, meaning you won’t have to waste time or resources on reprints. Above all, they can produce these high-quality printouts rapidly, with speeds ranging between an impressive 20-52 ppm, giving your employees time to focus on their other important workflows.

Additionally, our printers support many integrations with cloud-based services like Google Drive and ERP systems like SAP. With these integrations, your workforce can create automated tasks and leverage streamlined workflows.

Sustainability and Environmental Considerations

Today's businesses are more eco-conscious than ever before. That’s why many of our LaserJet printers come with Instant-On technology. This technology allows our printers to warm up and start printing faster, providing up to 50% energy savings over traditional fusing methods.

This technology reduces the amount of energy required to heat up the fuser since it only warms up when you need it. Beyond this, many of our printers have an automatic sleep mode, which reduces the printer's power state when not in use.

To enhance your sustainable practices, you should also follow Australia’s Cartridges 4 Planet Ark recycling program. This program invites you to recycle your HP LaserJet supplies like printer cartridges and toner bottles. Fortunately, there are many locations where you can drop off your waste, including all Officeworks stores and Australia Post offices.

Ultimately, with an HP LaserJet printer at your disposal, you’ll find it easier to meet your sustainability goals. We pride ourselves on our printers’ energy-saving capabilities. From our low-melt toners to our LED-based technology, our LaserJet printers can help your workspace contribute to a healthier, greener planet.

Choosing the Right HP LaserJet Printer for Your Business

Choosing the right printer for your business depends on many factors, including your budget, print volume, and the additional features you may need. For instance, if you need to share crucial documents with your clients, you may prioritise printing quality over wireless printing capabilities.

If you’re looking for an affordable HP LaserJet for SMEs, we recommend the HP LaserJet MFP M234sdw Printer. This multifunctional printer allows you to print, scan, and copy effortlessly. It also has an impressive print speed (30 ppm) and supports wireless printing via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.

On the other hand, if you run a large operation, we suggest looking into the HP Colour LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdw Printer. With this printer, you can produce consistently vibrant colour prints at a rapid speed of 33 ppm. If you tend to rely on monochrome printing, you can enjoy an even quicker printing speed of 35 ppm. Additionally, as a multifunctional printer, you’ll love its scan, fax, and copy functionalities.

Setting Up and Maintaining Your HP LaserJet Printer

Purchasing your LaserJet printer is one thing, but ensuring it’s been set up and maintained correctly is another thing entirely. To help you get the most out of your printer, we’ve provided some helpful tips below.

  •     Make sure you’re using the right type of paper to avoid jams and toner wastage.

  •     Unplug the printer and allow it time to cool down before you clean it.

  •     Invest in toner wipes so that you’re prepared for any toner spillages.

  •     Clean your printer’s corona wire by gently sliding the green tab from left to right between 10 and 15 times.

  •     Dip a cotton swab in isopropyl alcohol and use it to clean your printer’s drum, keeping it out of direct light where possible.
