Output quality

Enjoy high-quality output for your office

There are many different factors to consider when evaluating the overall quality of a product’s output. Output quality is more than the number of dots per inch (dpi) that the device places on a page; a higher dpi rating does not necessarily mean better output quality.

The HP LaserJet 3050 AiO features a number of HP technologies to consistently deliver impressive results with great-looking documents at an affordable price.

High-quality printing

Through innovative engineering, HP FastRes technology delivers outstanding print quality—at engine speed. This means you get the high-quality output you have come to expect from HP without degrading performance.

Because HP FastRes technology can represent each dot space as one of 256 levels of gray, the HP LaserJet 3050 AiO prints incredibly sharp text and graphics. As a result, the professional print quality obtained with HP FastRes rivals that of competitive printers with higher dpi specifications—but without the performance penalties.

HP FastRes is the default, out-of-the box print mode. However, for customers desiring the highest level of print quality, HP ProRes 1200 provides true 1200 by 1200 dpi.

HP Print Cartridges with Ultraprecise toner

The HP LaserJet Q2612A Black Print Cartridge features Ultraprecise toner to ensure consistent, top-quality output. Cartridges are designed to deliver quality and reliability over the life of each print cartridge, and from cartridge to cartridge. The HP print cartridge, product, and software are designed to work together to deliver optimal print quality.
