Applications
The HP Business Inkjet 2200 series was designed for small-to-medium workgroups needing high-resolution color output at lower per-page costs than laser alternatives of the era. With its MIDS cartridge system, each color could be replaced independently, reducing ink waste in mixed-use environments — a meaningful cost consideration for offices printing a combination of text documents and color graphics. The parallel interface was the standard workgroup printer connection at the turn of the millennium, with the expansion bay allowing optional networking or other interface cards. Units from this era are still sought for use with legacy parallel-port workstations or as parts sources for other 2200-series machines.
This HP C2689A Business Inkjet 2200se color printer appears to be in good physical condition with normal cosmetic wear for its age. Per our standard policy, all printers are sold AS-IS for parts or repair due to their age and the difficulty of guaranteeing long-term ink system reliability.
