The HP LaserJet 1012 is a compact personal monochrome laser printer from HP's classic 1010 series, still found on many home-office desks because it is small, quiet and cheap to run. It prints up to 15 pages per minute with the first page out in about 10 seconds thanks to HP's Instant-on fuser, and its 600 x 600 dpi engine with HP FastRes 1200 gives clean, sharp text.

A 150-sheet input tray and 100-sheet output tray cover light daily printing, the printer connects over USB, and a 133 MHz processor with 8 MB of memory handles everyday documents. HP rates it for up to 5,000 pages a month. The LaserJet 1012 uses the HP 12A black toner cartridge, one of the most popular cartridges GS Toner sells.
