With what the HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw lacks in speed and space-conservation, it more than makes up for in shear durability. The CM1415fnw is a multifunctional colour laser printer capable of print speeds of up to 12 pages per minute monochrome and 8 pages per minute colour, and fax speeds of up to 33.6 Kbps. With the HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw you can expect consistent, quality prints of up to 600 x 600 dpi in monochrome and 600 x 400 dpi in colour. This workhorse is perfect for the small to mid-size office environment in need for a multi-purpose printer capable of supporting any in-house job. A 600 MHz ARM 11 embedded processor and 160 standard MB of memory powers the system. The HP LaserJet Pro CM1415fnw supports a multitude of operating platforms including: Windows, Mac and Linux.
Design
The bulky yet office-style HP CM1415fnw won't be winning any compact footprint awards any time soon, but it weighs in at only 22.6 kg making office rearrangement a constant possibility. The HP CM1415fnw toner cartridge system is remarkably easy to access and maintain. For one of the larger office printers, the CM1415fnw is remarkably quiet as well with a noise level rated at only 40 dBa while operating.
Advantages
Only two chords are needed for the CM1415fnw, the power chord and the phone line. The system comes fully network-ready right out of the box and is a breeze to set-up. The system's firmware can be upgraded to increase print speeds and USB compatibility with camera types such as Sony, Cannon, HP, Olympus, Pentax, and Nikon is solid.
Disadvantages
The starter HP CM1415fnw toner cartridges only have a 750 page yield and the duty cycle of only 30,000 pages per month is a bit low compared to similar systems. The contact list for the fax machine functionality of the CM1415fnw only holds 120 speed dials, which is a big problem for larger offices with extensive contact lists.
