LaserJet M1005

Introduced in 2006, the HP LaserJet M1005 brought no-nonsense monochrome multifunction printing to price-sensitive small offices. Print, scan, and copy came standard in a compact box that asked little of its owner.

It uses the HP 12A cartridge (Q2612A), with the high-yield HP 12X (Q2612X) optional. Compatible and genuine OEM toner both available.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Q2612A and Q2612X cartridges for the HP LaserJet M1005?

The Q2612A is the standard-yield HP 12A cartridge and the Q2612X is the high-yield HP 12X — both made for the HP LaserJet M1005. If you print regularly, the Q2612X usually means fewer cartridge swaps over time.

Is it still worth keeping an HP LaserJet M1005 running today?

For basic monochrome printing, the HP LaserJet M1005 remains a solid machine — simple mechanics and cheap HP 12A toner. Keep it until repair costs on the HP LaserJet M1005 exceed the value of its reliability.

Should I buy the Q2612A or the Q2612X for my HP LaserJet M1005?

If your HP LaserJet M1005 prints every day, the high-yield Q2612X (HP 12X) is the practical pick — fewer interruptions and less packaging waste. Lighter or occasional printing on the HP LaserJet M1005 is perfectly served by the standard Q2612A (HP 12A).
