HP announces 9 new Leopard-compatible printers

HP Reduces Cost of Color Printing up to 50 Percent for Small Businesses

PALO ALTO, Calif., March 4, 2008 -- HP today announced new printing
solutions that enable small businesses to affordably produce marketing
collateral in-house, increase productivity and better manage their printing
environments.

The new HP Officejet business inkjet line delivers up to 50 percent lower
cost per page than competitive laser printers.(1) The expanded portfolio
also includes new color HP LaserJet printers, supplies and accessories as
well as new monochrome HP LaserJet multifunction printers.

"Our goal is to offer a complete and affordable small business marketing
solution," said Nor Rae Spohn, senior vice president, Imaging and Printing
Group, HP. "Today's launch builds on our Print 2.0 strategy, which will
allow customers to print when and how they want -- in-house, at retail or
through a print service provider."

Improving in-house marketing

HP's new color printers and expanded line of specialty papers make it easy
for small businesses to produce professional-quality color documents
quickly and affordably in their offices.

In most cases, small businesses can save more than 50 percent by printing
in-house versus using a quick printer.(2) Over the next year, HP plans to
make color printing even more affordable with new color HP LaserJet
printers that deliver monochrome printing for the same price as in-class
monochrome laser printers.

grow their business and interact with others through an online community,
tools, guides and templates. (http://hp.com/go/marketing)

All hardware and supplies packaging for the HP Officejet Printing System
will feature a dark green bar across the top of the box to signify that the
entire system -- from hardware to ink and media -- is designed together to
provide small business customers with more affordable solutions to produce
professional color documents at up to 50 percent lower cost per page than
competing laser printers.(1)

To help small businesses better manage their print environments, HP Easy

status of multiple devices, set up printer and supply alerts, generate
basic usage reports and reorder supplies with the click of a button.

Small businesses can enjoy high-quality, highly reliable printing using HP
technologies. In fact, a recent report from QualityLogic notes that HP
LaserJet monochrome toner cartridges consistently outperform remanufactured
cartridges.(8) According to the report, one in three of the remanufactured
monochrome toner cartridges tested had some kind of reliability problem,
while none of the tested HP cartridges experienced issues.
