PALO ALTO, CA–HP today announced the shipment of its 200 millionth HP LaserJet printer, an unprecedented milestone made possible by nearly 30 years of HP LaserJet innovation.
To celebrate this achievement, the company has created a collection of limited-edition, commemorative HP LaserJet printers that will be on display at HP Customer Experience Centers worldwide — including Barcelona, Spain; Beijing; Mexico City; and Palo Alto, Calif.
HP also is launching the “200 Million and Counting” customer sweepstakes. The sweepstakes invites customers to upload testimonials to www.hp.com/go/celebratelaserjet and share how HP LaserJet quality, innovation and excellence have helped their businesses succeed.
“With the introduction of the first LaserJet in 1984, HP started a printing revolution that fundamentally changed the way that businesses interact with content,” said Pradeep Jotwani, senior vice president, LaserJet and Enterprise Solutions, HP. “The shipment of our 200 millionth LaserJet demonstrates how we’ve continued that innovation, and we are far from done. We will continue to help our customers turn challenges into opportunities to change the way that businesses digitize, manage and consume content.”
