Software installation is just as simple as getting the hardware together.
#HP LASERJET P2035 PRINTING BARCODE INSTALL#
We would criticize the lack of a proper printed user guide in the box, but since you’ll need the aforementioned install CD to set the printer up anyway, it doesn’t really make sense to include one separately. And if you’re really hurting for help, putting in the CD breaks it down in a clean and simple animation worthy of Nick Jr. A series of large-print instruction booklets (packaged on top of the printer so they can’t be missed), brightly colored flags hanging out of the printer, and orange plastic pieces to be intuitively removed make it easy to prep the printer out of the box. HP has clearly had a chance to refine its formula for a consumer-friendly laser printer setup over the years, and it shows in the polished and nearly foolproof way the P2035N has been packaged. Like a lot of old-school office printers, this model also has no LCD display to let you know what’s going on inside – just six LED indicator lights with somewhat cryptic symbols. Unfortunately, this machine will only duplex (print on both sides of the page) manually, meaning you must print your pages, re-orient the pages in the printer, then send them through again. The “n” in P2035n designates built-in networking capability, which you’ll pay an extra $70 for ($300, rather than $230). Specs include resolution up to 1200 DPI, speed of up to 30 pages per minute, a 250-page letter tray and 50-page multipurpose tray, and both parallel and USB inputs. A footprint of over 14 inches square height of 10 inches makes it quite a monolith when you set it down next to a monitor or keyboard, so it’s definitely befitting of its own shelf (reinforced to handle all 24 pounds of it) or tabletop. It measures nowhere near as tall or large as the skyscraper-esque multifunction machines you’re used to seeing in corporate offices and Kinkos, but we wouldn’t call it appropriate for many desktops, either.

The size comparison is relative, of course. HP positions the P2035n as a printer with the speed and quality of a business machine, with a much smaller footprint and price more befitting a machine for home or small office use. Speed and text quality remain the laser printer’s biggest selling points, and the P2035n excels at both, but cost of operating isn’t quite as low as some of its competitors. Though color inkjets, multifunction printers, high-res photo printers and other sexy devices have largely won over the battle for consumer living rooms, monochrome laser printers like HP’s P2035n continue to serve as the backbone of most home office and small business operations.
