Competitive Comparison

The Phaser 4400 beats the HP 4100 by:

True 1200 dpi at full engine speed

30% faster image processor performance

More memory

Faster duplex speeds (HP won’t even disclose
their duplex speed!)

Better Input/Output — 550 sheet trays for loading
convenience, 1000 sheet max. output vs. 250

Four times the Hard Disk Capacity

Higher Print Cartridge Yields (std. 10K vs. 6K)

On site warranty vs. depot return

The Phaser 4400 beats the Lexmark T522 and T620 by:

True 1200 dpi resolution at full rated speed (both the
T522 an T620 slow to half speed for 1200 dpi)

Double the output capability of T522 — 500 vs. 250
(and the 4400 can expand to 1000, Lexmark T522 has
no upgrade)

Double the Hard Disk Capacity

More robust — higher duty cycle than the T522 and a
simple visual inspection reveal a more sturdy construc-
tion of the Phaser 4400

Edge to Edge Printing — very important for electronic
forms and spreadsheets, Lexmark can’t offer it

Larger standard toner yield. (10K vs. 7.5K)

Full capacity cartridge vs. 5K starter

On site warranty vs. depot return
