According to an article from CNET, HP will soon announce the release of eight new laser printers, ranging from $129 to $2,229. Among others, they will be introducing the $299 Color LaserJet 1600, which will replace the LaserJet 2600 as HP’s entry level color laser printer. There is also a $129 machine, the LaserJet 1018, which will be one of the smallest and least expensive HP laser printers available.

HP seems to realize that laser printers are becoming more common for single users and thus they need to make more inexpensive models available. For years, the only sub-$200 laser printers you could find were manufactured by Samsung or Brother. When these new machines come out, HP will be inching closer towards a sub-$100 laser printer, a threshold that no one has crossed as of yet.
