It is highly valued for its high print speed, sharp text output, and the low long-term cost-per-page that is characteristic of laser technology, making it a reliable workhorse for high-volume document printing.

The HP Laser 107a is generally positioned as one of the most affordable entry points into the laser printing market. The estimated price for a new unit in Kampala, which usually includes a preinstalled introductory toner cartridge (yielding about 500 pages), is:

  • Estimated Printer Price: UGX 540,000 – UGX 650,000

This price is highly competitive with higher-end inkjet printers, but the laser technology offers superior speed and quality for text documents.

Key Features and Specifications

  • Print Resolution: Up to $1,200 times 1,200 text{ dpi}$, ensuring crisp, sharp text and graphics.

  • Size: Extremely compact design, allowing it to fit easily onto a crowded desk or small office space.

Running Cost and Toner

The long-term value of the 107a is tied to the price and yield of its toner cartridge, the HP 107A Black Original Laser Toner Cartridge:

  • Toner Yield: The standard replacement cartridge yields approximately 1,000 pages.
  • Toner Cost: Prices for the genuine HP 107A toner can range from UGX 200,000 – UGX 300,000.
