Description
The HP 1022 Laserjet Printer is an affordable, compact, and reliable laser printer with the ability to produce professional-quality print jobs.

HP Resolution Enhancement technology, working with the ultra-precise toner formula and HP image writing systems in the cartridge, ensures reliable quality with sharp text and clear lines.

Reviews
By: Y. Kwon “geeky girl”This laser printer is the best value for its performance and output. I had a LaserJet 6P which is a dinosaur now, still works perfect but doesn’t understand PostScript3. I got tired of printing Japanese text by first having to make a pdf and then print. Now I can print directly to the printer. Unless you are going to buy a $600 Ricoh, you should really consider this printer solely based on its speed and text output.
If you are having problems connecting the USB printer to your computer. WinXP won’t recognize the printer, you need to disable the USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller. For some reason, on some computers running WinXP, the USB printer port is recognized as an “Unknown Device.” You may also have the same problem if you plan to connect the printer to a router or print server. I have a wireless Linksys Print Server and it does not recognize the USB printer.
By: John D. HearnI have had my HP 1022 Laserjet Printer for about 9 months now, and have yet to have any sort of problems and I’ll never buy another inkjet. It prints quickly, and while it lacks a duplex unit, the driver does support a sort of make-shift duplex printing. Select double sided printing, and print. It prints one side of all pages, then you can put the stack back in the printer without changing the orientation and hit one button on the printer to print the opposite sides.
No need to remember how to manually print alternate pages in reverse order and so forth…saves me so much ink and paper. The printer still works for most things, but it has developed some problems. For some reason, ink seems to stick too long on the barrel, so I get text ghosting on the page, i.e. text at the top of the page gets printed faintly again halfway down the page, on top of whatever text is supposed to be there. I can no longer use the printer for things like resumes.
Sometimes i I haven’t printed anything in a while, the printer puts out a puff of smoke after ech printed page. I will probably have to buy a new printer to replace this one, even though this one should meet my needs. Overall, I still think this printer is a much better purchase than an InkJet, but I would lower my rating to 3 stars because HP apparently follows a design philosophy of planned obsolescence, even with their LaserJets. I’d like to find something that is designed to last a bit longer without having to buy a huge, high-dollar office printer.
