The Hewlett-Packard 4100 MFP ' Much More Than a Printer

By Alan Pearlman
September 05, 2003

Certain areas of legal technology are really more exciting than others, but the necessary evil is that we, as lawyers, are in the paper business! We can't get around it no matter how hard we try ' we pump out reams of paper each week in an effort to further our client's interests. Keeping that in mind, there are several ways to move this paper and/or to print it! I have used several major printers in my legal career, but I can honestly say that none has given me more satisfaction, as well as, better printing quality, not to mention more over all functionality, than the Hewlett-Packard 4100 MFP (multifunction printer).

Ok, so what exactly is an MFP? It's what HP calls an 'intelligent network appliance that will streamline your day to day business operations by bridging the gap between paper-locked and digitally-enabled communications.' Translated, all this means is that you will have the ability to print, copy, color scan and digitally send with one single device! And perhaps more importantly, without utilizing a wide area of your office space dedicated to several office machines, thereby effectively eliminating separate printers, scanners, copiers, and digital sending devices! As for a cost savings, you will find that HP multifunction products are approximately 20%-40% less expensive to run, than all of the combined devices, while they take up 40%-50% less floor space than a full compliment of single function devices.
