Output quality
Enjoy high-quality output for your office
There are many different factors to consider when evaluating the overall quality of a product’s output.
Output quality is more than the number of dots per inch (dpi) that the device places on a page; a higher
dpi rating does not necessarily mean better output quality.
The HP LaserJet 3050 AiO features a number of HP technologies to consistently deliver impressive results
with great-looking documents at an affordable price.
High-quality printing
Through innovative engineering, HP FastRes technology delivers outstanding print quality—at engine speed.
This means you get the high-quality output you have come to expect from HP without degrading
performance.
Because HP FastRes technology can represent each dot space as one of 256 levels of gray, the HP LaserJet
3050 AiO prints incredibly sharp text and graphics. As a result, the professional print quality obtained with
HP FastRes rivals that of competitive printers with higher dpi specifications—but without the performance
penalties.
HP FastRes is the default, out-of-the box print mode. However, for customers desiring the highest level of
print quality, HP ProRes 1200 provides true 1200 by 1200 dpi.
HP Print Cartridges with Ultraprecise toner
The HP LaserJet Q2612A Black Print Cartridge features Ultraprecise toner to ensure consistent, top-quality
output. Cartridges are designed to deliver quality and reliability over the life of each print cartridge, and
from cartridge to cartridge. The HP print cartridge, product, and software are designed to work together to
deliver optimal print quality.
Professional copying, scanning, and faxing
The color scanner converts printed material to digital information at high fidelity, with up to 600 by
600 dpi optical resolution, 24-bit depth, or up to 19,200 dpi enhanced resolution. You can make
impressive copies at up to 600 by 600 dpi, and send and receive faxes at up to 300 by 300 dpi.
To ensure exceptional results, HP’s LaserJet Scan software includes scan-to application, multi-photo scan
with auto-detection of individual images, intelligent scanning to recognize the difference between text,
lines, and images, with optical character recognition for text editing capability, automatic scan
calibration, automatic image straightening, automatic cropping, and automatic image enhancement.
