The HP Business Inkjet 1100d printer offers great performance and exceptional color and black-and-white print quality for high-productivity individuals. The 1100d is packed with a host of cost-saving features, including a low purchase price, automatic two-sided printing, modular ink-delivery system, and a user-friendly design.

The 1100d has two opening compartments, one over the printing area and one that covers the ink cartridges and printheads. One feature we would have liked to see was a window over the printing area. My personal preference is to take the occasional peek at the progress of the print. The labels that adorn the underside of these doors are a nice touch. The sticker underneath the print area door provides a legend for the different situations that may occur such as jammed paper, empty ink, almost empty ink, etc. The sticker beneath the ink cartridge door provides graphical instruction on proper installation of the cartridges as well as the HP code numbers for the different cartridges. This is very convenient if youn’ve misplaced the manual or have already tossed the empty cartridges.

The HP 1100d was extremely easy to setup. Install the included driver, plug-in the power cord, plug-in the USB or parallel cable, and yous’re finished. The setup poster is useful as it points out where all the shipping tape is located and the correct orientation of the 4 printheads and 4 ink cartridges. A separate insert is included to provide more detail on how the locking mechanism for the ink cartridges works. If you require further documentation from HP regarding usage or troubleshooting youe’ll need to head the HP support website as the supplied documentation does not provide that.
