Japan HP "Officejet 150 Mobile AiO"

The move is all on number one.

　The lineup of the company's compound machines is "Deskjet", "Photosmart", "ENVY", "Officejet" and "Officejet Pro". (there seems to be a lack of sign now) is quite abundant. As the name implies, Officejet and Officejet Pro are divided into business use and the rest for household use. Of course, in the Officejet system, if the use and function match, there is no problem in using it in the home. In fact, the author is using "Officejet Pro8500A Plus" for the purpose of digital fax. It is useful to have the ability to automatically send the received FAX as a TIFF to any email address.

　Among them, the compound machine "Officejet150Mobile AiO", which is obviously different from other concepts, has been on sale in China since November. It's a kind of weird compound machine that can be powered by batteries. As a compound machine, it enjoys the reputation of "the first mobile integration in the world". The main specifications are as follows:

　Black ink is very strong against water, etc., and even ordinary paper will not ooze. CMY uses a dye system with good color rendering. Although there are basically four colors, it can be changed to six colors for photos by selecting, which is also a happy focus. The monochrome printing speed is about 5 ppm, and the color printing speed is about 3.5 ppm. It's not very fast, but it's practical enough. The supply tray is only on the back. 50 sheets of plain paper, 5 sheets of photo paper and 3 envelopes at most.

　In the scanning part, the optical resolution of the CIS sensor is 600 × 600dpi/ and the maximum gray level is 24bit. ADF only supports plain paper (64-90g/ square m) single ticket, size A4/B5/ letter / law. Many multi-function peripherals are mostly 1200 dpi or larger, with slightly lower 600dpi, but there seems to be no particular trouble considering the use of file replication.

　The operating system is 2.36 color touch screen. For the sake of compact arrangement, the panel is inverted at the back during storage. Except for each function icon [home page], [return], [? You only need / ×] and [< / >] buttons to perform simple operations without manual operation.

　Interface, USB is 2 ports. One of them is for the media. It also comes with Bluetooth 2.0 and SD card slots. Only the printer function cannot use the scanning function when Bluetooth is connected (the profile supports HCRP/BIP/OPP/SPP). In addition, Wi-Fi is not supported.

　As a convenient function, you can cite the "ink backup printing function". When the ink is used up, for example, when there is no black, use color synthesis instead, in the case of no color, printing with grayscale, you can avoid the state that nothing can be printed.

　And the biggest feature is that the battery drive can print up to about 500 copies. Of course, the battery is not optional, but standard bundled. Although there is no battery drive benchmark test this time, in the trial, including scanning and photocopying, almost only battery drive can be evaluated (only about the last hour of charging and AC drive at the same time).

　The size is 350x171x90 mm (width × depth × height). The weight is 2.9 kg (no battery) and 3.1 kg (with battery). Because it is an A4 aircraft, it is impossible to need a certain size. The weight is about two mobile PC. Because it's hard to hold a car by hand, do you mainly move by driving and so on?

　The price is 36960 yen. Compared with other Officejet systems, it is slightly improved, but the most important thing is that the battery-powered compound machine can be used, which will be the greatest attraction for users who need it.

　The shell is well used in silver and black, and of course the work also matches in the home. However, about 3 kilograms is very heavy, although it is portable, but it is also very heavy to lift. As I just said, the overall strength is strong enough to carry it normally.

　There is only a panel for paper layout in the front. On the back are USB connectors for media, USB connectors for PC connections, and power inputs. The slender dent in the center is where the battery is installed. There is something like a fingernail on the left and right, a device that is used to fix it.

　There is an SD card slot deep on the left side. For operability, the USB connector for media is desired on the front or on one side. The AC adapter is about 100x45x30mm (wide × deep × high), which is quite compact. The company said that with the same specifications as its laptop, you can reduce one AC adapter luggage when you go out.

　When the top panel is opened, the panel itself is the paper tray. In addition, in this state, the operator panel tips backwards and needs to be caused when in use (where the opening photo causes the operator panel). The silver part in the front further becomes a panel, and when opened, you can access the ink cartridges. It is well gathered together in the overall limited space, and there is no particular dissatisfaction except for the front USB port.

　The startup time is about 30 seconds. At this time, there is an interesting mechanism, the front desk paper layout panel opens automatically. In addition, when the operator panel falls down, the animation is displayed on the display to make it rise. It's just a little thing that makes people feel like "Oh!" Jimmy.

　For action sound and vibration, please refer to the animation published later. Because of the high level of recording, I feel a little annoying, but it is actually quite quiet. The vibration is suppressed accordingly, and the table is driven without swinging from side to side.
