It has the robust features, fast speeds and large capacities that will allow for higher-volume use at an affordable price much lower than most business units. Networking is available as an upgrade for small offices, and the low cost of HP 1100 ink keeps
ink cartridge costs affordable.
There are two models available. The 1100d is the base model, which includes automatic duplexing, while the 1100dtn model adds an ethernet port for connecting and sharing among a network of computers as well as extra paper capacity for busy users.
