Key Advantages

The HP LaserJet 4100n boasts fast printing speeds up to 24 ppm, improving office productivity. Its built-in Ethernet connectivity supports easy network integration and sharing among multiple users. The printer's expandable memory up to 320MB allows efficient processing of complex documents.

Its high input capacity (600 sheets standard) reduces the frequency of paper refills. Compatibility with multiple printer languages (PCL 5e/6, PostScript) ensures versatile usage across applications. The device’s robust duty cycle and durable design support heavy-volume printing in busy office environments.

Limitations

The HP LaserJet 4100n is limited to monochrome printing, lacking color capabilities. Its maximum print resolution of 600 x 600 dpi may not meet the needs for high-detail photographic prints. It does not support modern wireless connectivity options, relying solely on Ethernet for network access.

The printer's dimensions and weight make it less mobile and require dedicated space. Its age means replacement parts and support may be harder to find. The 64MB standard memory could be insufficient for very large or graphics-intensive print jobs without expansion.
