PRINTER RECOMMENDATION REPORT INTRODUCTION This recommendation report is in response to your request to research new Hewlett-Packard (HP) printers for every department based on three criteria: price, output, and equipment capabilities. Concerning price, I was given a cost not to exceed $300. Output had to be no less than 30 pages per minute (ppm). Finally, after considering price and output, they had to be capable of printing, but not necessarily scanning and faxing, unless included in the cost price. PRINTER CRITERIA PRICE After researching numerous HP printers, the following three printers were competitors under the $300 price criterion (see Table 1): TABLE 1: PRICE PRINTER HP LaserJet Pro M203DW $169.99 HP LaserJet Pro MFP M227fdn $239.99 HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdw $299.99 PRICE The prices were all under $300: the M203DW was the least expensive at $169.99, the MFP M227fdn was $239.99, and the MFP M426fdw was the most expensive at $299.99. OUTPUT These same three printers also qualified under the 30 ppm output criterion (see Table 2): TABLE 2: OUTPUT PRINTER HP LaserJet Pro M203DW Up to 30 ppm HP LaserJet Pro MFP M227fdn Up to 30 ppm HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdw Up to 40 ppm OUTPUT Both the M203DW and the MFP M227fdn have the capability of printing up to 30 ppm, while the MFP M426fdw can produce up to 40 ppm. CAPABILITIES Finally, all three printers were evaluated for their capabilities to do printing, scanning, and faxing (see Table 3) TABLE 3: CAPABILITIES PRINTER HP LaserJet Pro M203DW HP LaserJet Pro MFP M227fdn HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdw CAPABILITIES PRINT SCAN FAX Yes No No Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes The MFP M426fdw had all three capabilities, while each of the other two printers, lacked at least one of the three capabilities: the MFP M227fdn lacked the ability to scan, and the M203DW lacked both the scanning and faxing modes of operation. CONCLUSIONS In summary, all three competing printers meet the requirements for our next departmental printers, but one fulfills our needs better than the other two (see Table 4): TABLE 4: CRITERIA SUMMARY PRINTER HP LaserJet Pro M203DW $169.99 Up to 30 ppm HP LaserJet Pro MFP M227fdn $239.99 Up to 30 ppm HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdw $299.99 Up to 40 ppm PRICE OUTPUT CAPABILITIES PRINT SCAN FAX Yes No No Yes No Yes Yes Yes Yes Based on price the M203DW is the least expensive ($169.99), while the MFP M426fdw is the most expensive ($299.99), but all three cost less than the $300 ceiling. When considering output, the MFP M426fdw has the most at up to 40 ppm, while the other two printers cannot exceed 30 ppm. Finally, under capabilities, all three meet the minimum printing requirement, with the MFP M227fdn having a faxing capability and the MFP M426fdw adding the capabilities of both scanning and faxing. RECOMMENDATION After researching all three printers, using the following three criteria: price, output, and capabilities, I recommend that we purchase the MFP M426fdw. Although it costs more than the other two printers, it still meets the $300 limit set by the company. In addition, it copies up to 10 more ppm and adds the ability to both scan and fax. .
