Limitations

The HP PSC 1210 lacks built-in network connectivity, requiring direct USB connection limiting shared access in office environments. It does not support automatic duplex printing, which may increase paper usage. The USB 1.1 interface provides slower data transfer compared to modern standards. The device uses older ink cartridge models which may be less efficient and somewhat costly. Print speed is modest, which could affect productivity with large print volumes. The scanner lacks advanced features like transparency scanning or automatic document feeding.
