HP is known for providing great printing solutions for different printing needs. They have solutions for high-resolution printers. They have printing solutions for printing high quality photos. They also have mobile solutions for people who need printers while they’re traveling or on the road. So if you are looking for an HP portable printer for your portable lifestyle, the best option for you is to go to their home page and look at their mobile printers.
HP currently has a mobile line of printers. This is the HP OfficeJet H470 Series. Different models of this printer have other features like an additional battery or Bluetooth capability. Unfortunately, these are the only portable printers that HP is currently producing. Coincidentally, these are also the only portable printers you can get directly from HP. The previous mobile printers have some difference in terms of print quality or speed that they decided to discontinue their production.
The latest HP portable printer series does not differ a lot from its predecessor. Take for example the DeskJet 460 Series. They also have different models with additional batteries and Bluetooth capability. They even have a model that supports Wi-Fi connectivity. However, in terms of performance, the only distinct difference between them is speed. Aesthetically, the latest series come in a black shade while the series before sport silver designs. This however has nothing to do with performance. Their printing speed is what defines most of the difference in functionality. They offer the same printing resolutions and use the same media, but the OfficeJet H470 series can do all those things at 22 pages per minute, which is 5ppm faster than the DeskJet 460 series.
There are customers who do not mind the difference in speed. The speed of 17ppm can be considered a fast printing speed when it comes to mobile printers. Even if the speed was around 10ppm, many people will still consider purchasing them. This is because they are a lot cheaper compared to the latest printers. You don’t have to buy the latest printers in order to enjoy the quality of the printers they make. After all, their printing resolutions are still the same at 4800 x 1200 dots per inch.
Aside from the DeskJet 460 series, HP also has the DeskJet 450 series that are also mobile printers. However, in terms of performance, the speed difference is much larger since they can only print up to 9ppm. Aside from that, they also use the parallel port for interfacing with a computer. Most mobile printers today do not make use of this port every since USB makes it much more convenient to use.
HP also has a portable line of photo printers. The printers discussed above are printers that are intended for printing documents of Letter and Legal sizes, although they are still capable of printing in smaller sizes. The portable photo printers are designed more for printing borderless photos in 4” x 6” sizes. They are also convenient to use because you can print pictures even without computers. This is made possible with their PictBridge and USB feature.
The continuous obsolescence and release of portable printer series is proof that HP is continuously bent on improving what they already do. And that is providing the best solutions for today’s needs, which in this case are printing needs.
