HP Laser MFP 1188a Driver Download

HP Laser MFP 1188a Driver helps Windows send print and scan commands to this monochrome multifunction laser printer. Once the driver is installed, the computer can recognise the machine for printing, flatbed scanning, and copying from the control panel. A USB cable is the only computer connection, so the printer needs to sit close to the PC during setup and daily use. Fax is not built into this model, which keeps the software focused on document output and basic office scanning.

HP Laser MFP 1188a Specifications

HP Laser MFP 1188a is a monochrome laser multifunction printer for printing, scanning, and copying; fax is not built into this model. Printing uses one black toner cartridge. Scanning stays on the CIS flatbed, so each original is placed on the glass by hand. The two-line LCD gives basic local control, and the 600 MHz processor works with 128 MB of memory.

Black A4 output runs at 20 pages per minute, with the first page out in 8.3 seconds from ready mode. Best print quality reaches 1200 x 1200 dpi. Two-sided pages need manual handling because automatic duplex hardware is not fitted. The flatbed scans at 600 x 600 dpi optically, or up to 4800 x 4800 dpi after enhancement. Copy jobs can reach 20 cpm, with scaling from 25% to 400% and sets up to 99 copies.

Paper feeds from a 150-sheet input tray, and finished pages collect in a 100-sheet output bin. Everyday sheets can be plain, thin, thick, cotton, recycled, or bond paper. Labels, cardstock, and envelopes also use the same feed path. Standard sizing covers A4, A5, A5 LEF, B5 JIS, Oficio, DL envelopes, and C5 envelopes. Custom paper can run from 76 x 127 mm to 216 x 356 mm.

A wired setup uses one Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port for a nearby computer. Wireless networking, Ethernet, and optional network hardware are not part of the unit. The monthly duty cycle reaches 10,000 pages, but HP’s regular-use range is 100 to 2,000 pages. With the trays closed, the body measures 406 x 359.6 x 253 mm; fully opened, it reaches 482 x 447 x 361 mm. Weight is about 7.46 kg, and printing power use is rated at 300 watts.
