Overview

The HP Business Inkjet 2250TN, released in 2001, is an office inkjet printer designed for small to medium business environments. It operates with a resolution of up to 1200 x 600 dpi for printing sharp documents and graphics. The printer supports input paper sizes ranging from letter to legal and has a print speed of approximately 11 pages per minute for black and white and 4 pages per minute for color prints. Connectivity is primarily through a parallel port, common for the time, with basic USB support depending on model variants. It uses separate ink cartridges for black and tri-color inks, allowing easier maintenance and replacement. The printer is also equipped with a 250-sheet input tray and a 100-sheet output tray, facilitating moderate-volume printing tasks efficiently.

Its inkjet technology is based on thermal inkjet with precise droplet control resulting in high-quality text and best suited for office document printing rather than photo printing. The device also supports borderless printing for certain sizes, enhancing marketing and presentation materials. Due to its age, it has limited compatibility with modern operating systems but remains functional with legacy Windows versions through HP's original drivers.

Key Advantages

The HP Business Inkjet 2250TN offers high print resolution ideal for professional document output. It supports efficient printing speeds for its category, balancing speed and quality. The separate ink cartridge system lowers the cost of consumables and enhances ease of maintenance. Its paper handling capacity with a 250-sheet input tray is significant for small businesses. Compact and reliable build ensures consistent performance over years of operation. The printer supports a range of paper sizes and types, providing flexibility for various office printing needs.

Limitations

As an early 2000s model, the Business Inkjet 2250TN uses legacy connection interfaces, limiting compatibility with modern devices. It lacks advanced networking capabilities like Ethernet or Wi-Fi. The color print speed is relatively slow compared to contemporary models. Its ink technology is less efficient, leading to higher ink consumption and operating costs. The printer does not support duplex printing, requiring manual paper reloading for double-sided prints. Driver support is limited primarily to older Windows platforms, complicating use with new operating systems.
