20 Evaluating laser all-in-one products
Total cost of ownership
HP LaserJet quality and dependability in an affordable design
For many businesses, the total cost of ownership (TCO) is a critical part of the purchase decision. TCO
takes into account everything from the initial investment, to support and maintenance costs, to the costs of
supplies. The HP LaserJet 3050 AiO has a competitive overall purchase price and includes a number of
features that add up to significant cost savings over time. The product provides a simple office solution at a
great price, delivering fast, high-quality laser printing and copying and easy faxing and scanning.
Simplify, save time, and reduce costs
By supporting one device rather than multiple devices, you can reduce costs by managing fewer
supplies and minimizing storage requirements and service interruptions.
Use less power—the product’s PowerSave mode conserves energy during periods of device inactivity.
With Instant-on Technology, fuser warm-up time is virtually eliminated. Because the fuser does not need
to be kept warm and requires little warm-up time, the product consumes less energy and saves money,
while performance remains unaffected.
You can print in EconoMode to use less toner, extend the life of your print cartridge, and reduce the
cost per page. EconoMode produces a lighter printed image that is suitable for drafts and proofs.
HP printing supplies are designed to maintain a low cost of ownership and minimize user interaction,
which saves time and improves productivity.
The familiar HP interface is preferred by most office users and requires little or no training.
Paper handling options, a low-maintenance design, and HP ToolboxFX save time and money and keep
your office productive. HP ToolboxFX lets you check device status, configure settings, set up automatic
alerts, order supplies online, and view self-help information, troubleshooting tips, and online
documentation. For more information, see “HP ToolboxFX” on page 22.
Use HP Web Jetadmin to efficiently manage fleets of network peripherals. HP Web Jetadmin provides
network managers a single support tool to install, monitor, and troubleshoot a wide range of network-
connected devices from an intuitive browser interface. For more information, see “HP Web Jetadmin”
on page 26.
HP dependability
By far the biggest contributor to user productivity is the reliability of HP equipment, support, and service.
Instead of experiencing frustration and downtime while waiting for repairs, users are getting their work
done.
