cost-effective
performance
• reduce printing costs—four individual high-capacity ink cartridges (CMYK) let users change only the
ones they need, contributing to a color cost per page of just 8.4* cents (2.2* cents black and white)
• minimize user intervention—the hp business inkjet 2230/2280 series is equipped with individual
high-capacity ink cartridges that print around 1,750 pages for each color and a 250-sheet paper tray
for minimal intervention; add an optional 250-sheet paper tray (standard with 2280tn) to increase
capacity to 500 sheets
• reduce wasted printing—individual cartridges feature smart chips to continuously monitor print head
health, print quality, and ink supply
• print large jobs efficiently—print professional color documents with speeds of 7.5 ppm in normal mode
and 14 ppm in fast mode and the new “speed optimized normal” mode prints up to 50% faster than
“normal” mode with comparable print quality
• print on demand—print processing powered by 96/167 MHz dual processors and 48 MB of
on-board printer memory; expandable up to 176 MB for fast printing of even the biggest graphic files
(96 MHz/16 MB standard on 2230)
• confidently produce quality, accurate documents—print any business document with complete accurcy
and superior print quality through auto-switching of hp PCL5C and PostScript 3 emulation (optional on 2230)
*Based on 5% average ink coverage for each color.

powerful printing
The HP Business Inkjet 2230/2280 series was designed for
users looking for an affordable solution to their demanding
printing needs. Produce professional, effective communications
in less time. For fast printing or drafts, you can print full-color
documents at speeds of 14 ppm in fast mode and 15 ppm in
black and white. When you’re ready to print the final product,
use the normal mode and receive color printouts at 7.5 ppm.
Plus, HP has added a new “Speed-optimized Normal” that
prints documents up to 50% faster than the “Normal” mode
with comparable print quality. Colors appear vibrant and
sharp with HP PhotoREt III color layering technology. Print
accuracy and excellent quality are assured with auto-switching
of HP PCL 5c and PostScript 3 emulation (optional on the 2230).
The HP Business Inkjet 2280 and 2280tn both deliver the
power that comes from 96/167 MHz dual processors
(96 MHz on the 2230) and 48 MB of built-in RAM
memory (16 MB in the 2230). And, all models can expand
to 176 MB of RAM, making this the printer that truly grows
with your business.
*Based on 5% average ink coverage for each color.
affordable, low maintenance printing
HP designed the HP Business Inkjet 2230/2280 series with
you in mind—robust printers that don’t require a lot of
attention and won’t increase your bottom line. By using four
individual high-capacity ink cartridges (black, cyan, magenta,
yellow), these printers create documents more efficiently,
extending printing life. Each ink cartridge features smart chips
to continuously monitor both printhead health and ink supply.
And because you only have to replace the individual color
ink cartridges that are empty, you save money on ink costs.
Printed documents cost only 2.2* cents per page for black
and white and 8.4* cents per page for color. The high-
capacity ink cartridges print up to 1,750 pages on each color
