HP CM8050 Color MFP: cost-efficient, high quality
TDA’s choice for high-volume color printing is the HP
CM8050 Color MFP with Edgeline Technology,
equipped with the optional high-capacity 4,000 sheet
input tray and multifunction finisher. HP pioneered
Edgeline Technology to combine environmentally
conscious design with reliable printing of outstanding
quality at low operational cost. Onboard copy, scan,
fax and print capabilities reduce the need for multiple
machines. It all sounded good, but Cardwell was
anxious at first about the print technology. Using an
array of printheads stretched across the page, the HP
CM8050 Color MFP moves the paper, not the
printhead, for more accurate ink-drop placement.

“With HP MPS, we can pick up the phone and know
they’ll be there when they say they will. We’re a small
shop, so I don’t have a lot of resources to do these
things ourselves. Our reputation depends on our
service provider.”

“TDA was skeptical that the device’s inkjet technology
was going to have the quality we needed,” he says.

The HP CM8050 Color MFP with Edgeline Technology
prints an average 50 ppm black-and-white and 40
ppm color. Its usage-based pricing model charges one
price per page for professional color, a lower price for
general office color, and even lower for black-and-
white. HP’s Color Accent feature keeps overall printing
costs down by charging black-and-white prices for
pages that use a very small amount of color. “If I print
a spreadsheet that has only a couple of rows of color

a spreadsheet that has only a couple of rows of color

Cardwell explains. He adds that the image quality is
so good that General Office color is more than
adequate for most jobs; only the marketing department
uses Professional color, for pre-production reviews of
marketing material.

Cardwell also appreciates the HP CM8050 Color MFP
with Edgeline Technology’s environmentally conscious
design. Digital network connectivity and duplex
printing reduce paper usage. The device meets
requirements for ENERGY STAR® qualification, its print
cartridges are recyclable, and it comes packed in a
reusable wooden crate. “TDA is a natural resources
agency and is deeply concerned with the environment
and our impact on the environment,” he says. “One of
the factors in choosing the HP CM8050 Color MFP
with Edgeline Technology was the reduced power
consumption.”

HP LaserJet printers enhance workgroup productivity
To complement its five HP CM8050 Color MFPs, TDA
has deployed one HP LaserJet 9050 Printer for high-
volume black-and-white, 13 HP LaserJet multifunction
printers, and five HP LaserJet M3035 MFPs. Because
TDA has consolidated equipment, every device it
deploys must be reliable because people depend on it
with little backup.

“The HP LaserJet 4345 is our workhorse,” Cardwell
says. “We’ve got five in our Austin office and the rest
are scattered around the state. We picked that device
for its reliability, its 45 ppm speed, multi-drawer
capability and multifunction efficiency.”

The smaller HP LaserJet M3035 MFPs were chosen for
similar reasons, but deployed in offices with fewer
