The Xerox Phaser 6300 is more productive and better featured than the HP Laser Jet 4650 for dramatically less money.
Additional potential LaserJet 4650 costs
• The combined HP LaserJet 4650 toner/imaging unit cartridges may increase printing cost. When the imaging unit runs out, you
could be throwing away unused toner.
• At 5% coverage, a black-only page costs over 6 cents each when printing on the HP LaserJet 4650 in default mode.*
Why so expensive? Because each print wears on all four HP LaserJet 4650 print cartridges (decreasing their life) even
though no color is printed.
• In an attempt to reduce the high page cost, the HP 4650 has a Mostly Black Pages feature that...
• disengages the three color print cartridges if printing a black-only page;
• increases printing times by six seconds per job and;
• causes wear on all three color cartridges if any amount of color is printed
