The HP LaserJet 3050 is a compact monochrome laser all-in-one (print, copy, scan, fax) built for home offices and small businesses. It prints and copies up to 19 ppm at 600 x 600 dpi (1,200 dpi quality), with instant-on fusing that delivers a first page in under 8 seconds.

A 266 MHz processor and 64 MB of memory drive it, the 250-sheet tray, 10-sheet priority slot and 30-sheet document feeder cover daily jobs, and the 33.6 Kbps Super G3 fax keeps a 2 MB memory. It connects by USB 2.0, has a 2-line backlit display and weighs about 22 pounds.

It uses the HP 12A black cartridge (2,000 pages), available as a genuine HP original from GS Toner, singly or in a 2-pack.
