Most-Wanted Parts for HP LaserJet 5P

HP LaserJet 5P and 5MP printers are designed for individuals and small work groups.

They meet high-quality printing standards with true 600 x 600-dpi (dots per inch) resolution, 120 levels of gray, and a variety of fonts. Two trays (one holding 100 sheets and the other holding 250 sheets) allow printing sizes from postcard to legal without changing trays. An IrDA-compliant infrared port comes standard, allowing wireless printing from the latest IrDA-compliant portable systems. Two parallel ports and one LocalTalk port (with automatic switching among all ports) provide easy sharing and expanded use. Standard SIMM memory slots allow for memory expansion, optional printer language, or custom SIMM solutions.

The HP LaserJet 5P printer uses HP's Enhanced PCL 5 (Printer Command Language Level 5), a printer language that is standard for desktop laser printing in PC operating environments, such as Microsoft (R) Windows and DOS.

The HP LaserJet 5MP printer also includes the Adobe (R) PostScript Level 2 printer language, used with the Apple Macintosh, as well as desktop laser printing in environments such as Windows.

The HP LaserJet 5P and 5MP are in the VX group of printers.
