The Bottom Line
If the question is “why pay more and get less?” then the answer is the Lexmark
T420d and T420dn duplexing monochrome laser printers. For an estimated
street price of $649, the T420d is smaller, faster, and has a five percent lower
cost per page than the identically priced Hp LaserJet 2200. However, the T420d
rates at 50,000 pages per month, fully 25 percent more than the 40,000 page
duty cycle of the hp LJ 2200. And, of course, the T420d offers both-sides
automatic duplex printing for the base $649 price. You would have to pay an
extra $100 to get duplexing in the hp LaserJet 2200.
