The HP Laserjet Pro P1108 is a low-volume laser printer that prints pages in black. A monochrome printer is always more attractive than a color one for printing text because it is cheaper to run as it runs only on one black toner cartridge.

Its monthly duty cycle and recommended monthly print volume, as well as its sheet feeder and output tray capacity, clearly show that the HP Laserjet Pro P1108 is not one intended for offices that print hundreds, let alone thousands, of pages every single day.

Features and Highlights

Physical size of a printer is an important consideration if you don’t want to end up with one that is too big to sit on your desk, especially if there is only one desk in your room. The HP Laserjet Pro P1108 measures 349 mm wide, 410 mm deep, and 228 mm tall, with a weight of 5.2 kg. To free up some desk real estate, the input tray can be folded in when the printer is not in use, which will reduce the depth of the printer to about 238 mm.

To print pages, you need to put some papers in the automatic feeder, which has a capacity of 150 sheets of plain papers. If you’re going to print on envelopes, the automatic feeder allows you to load up to fifteen envelopes. The printer can also print on some other media such as postcard, photo paper, rough paper, and labels.

The exit tray has a capacity of 100 sheets of plain papers, which is less than that of the input tray. Therefore, if you print more than 100 pages, you will have to empty the exit tray when it looks full.

The HP Laserjet Pro P1108 has a duty cycle of 5000 pages per month. If you print, say 1000 pages in one go, it means you have to empty the exit tray at least nine times to make sure that none of the printouts falls to the floor.

Although the printer is built to handle printing up to 5000 pages, keep in mind that printing more than 1500 pages per month repeatedly will put more burden on the printer and eventually affect its expected lifespan negatively, more so if the printer is used to print more than 5000 pages in a month.

As a laser printer dedicated to print text in black, the HP Laserjet Pro P1108 should be able to print faster than an inkjet printer, but it is rated only up to 18 pages per minute.
