Design

Physically, the HP LaserJet 1200N is very simple and inoffensive. Appearing to be something of a small white box, the HP 1200N printer is a little bit of a throwback to office printers of days gone by, but with a much better size and more curvy finish than it's predecessors. The HP LaserJet 1200N comes in a cream/off-white colour scheme and whilst not offensive, it's not hugely inspiring either in all honesty.

Advantages

Still, the HP LaserJet 1200N boasts many features, perhaps the greatest of all is the fast Ethernet connection allowing for networking options. Print speeds are fairly consistent at approximately 15 ppm and the first page out time in 10 seconds is rather impressive. The HP LaserJet 1200N is small, compact and easy to use as a personal or small office laser printer. As you might expect from a LaserJet, results are clear and pleasing on the eye, too.

Disadvantages

There aren't many in truth. However, the LaserJet 1200N struggles to provide any real expandability in terms of paper handling. A 125 sheet output tray is fine for home users but may be a drawback in a busy office setting. The design might not be to everyone's taste either and at over £150, the LaserJet 1200N is the most expensive printer in the 1200 series.
