HP DeskJet 2320 All-in-One Printer handles printing, scanning, and copying for KSh 8,000, available now at Mascom International, Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The HP DeskJet 2320 prints up to 7.5 pages per minute in black and 5.5 pages per minute in colour, drawing from a 60-sheet paper tray. Its flatbed scanner captures documents at up to 1200 dpi, and the copier runs up to nine copies without a computer attached. The HP DeskJet 2320 arrives brand new and sealed, with HP 305 setup cartridges already fitted inside the machine.
Small shops along Tom Mboya Street, home-based consultants in Kasarani, and students at Kenyatta University and USIU share one recurring cost: paying KSh 10 to KSh 20 per page at a cyber cafe for work they could produce at home. The HP DeskJet 2320 removes that trip. A landlord printing tenancy agreements, a boda rider printing insurance copies, or a parent printing school assignments recovers the KSh 8,000 outlay within a few hundred pages. The HP DeskJet 2320 weighs 3.42 kg and occupies 425 mm of desk width, so it fits a shop counter or a bedroom study table.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who quote a printer price and stay quiet about ink, Mascom International tells buyers upfront that the HP DeskJet 2320 uses HP 305 cartridges, that the standard black cartridge covers roughly 120 pages, and that the 305XL version roughly doubles that figure. Customers across Nairobi report the machine runs for months on light household volumes. At Mascom International, we're witnessing steady demand for compact all-in-one units from buyers who print 50 to 100 pages a month. Walk into our Kimathi Street store to run a test page before you pay, or order for countrywide delivery.
Common Questions About the HP DeskJet 2320
Is the HP DeskJet 2320 worth KSh 8,000 in Kenya's market?
Yes, for anyone printing 50 to 100 pages monthly. At KSh 8,000 the HP DeskJet 2320 costs less than a year of cyber cafe charges for a student printing two assignments a week. It prints, scans, and copies from one 3.42 kg body, so you are not buying three separate machines. The trade-off is honest: no Wi-Fi, no automatic double-sided printing, and 120-page standard cartridges. For light household and small-shop work, that trade-off holds up.
Does the HP DeskJet 2320 connect wirelessly or only by cable?
The HP DeskJet 2320 connects by Hi-Speed USB 2.0 cable only. There is no Wi-Fi, no Ethernet port, and no printing from a phone or tablet. You print from a Windows computer physically attached to the machine. If your household needs printing straight from an Android handset over Safaricom home fibre, ask our team about the DeskJet 2720 or an Ink Tank model instead. We would rather you buy the right unit than return the wrong one.
How fast does the HP DeskJet 2320 print a stack of documents?
Rated ISO speeds are 7.5 pages per minute in black and 5.5 pages per minute in colour. Draft mode lifts that to 20 pages per minute black and 16 colour, which suits internal paperwork where sharpness matters less. The first black page leaves the tray in about 15 seconds from ready, 18 seconds for colour. A 20-page tenancy agreement in standard black finishes in under three minutes.
Which ink cartridges does the HP DeskJet 2320 use?
It takes two cartridges: HP 305 Black and HP 305 Tri-color, with HP 305XL high-yield versions available for heavier printing. The standard 305 black covers roughly 120 pages and the tri-color roughly 100 pages. The 305XL black roughly doubles to 240 pages and the XL tri-color to 200. Mascom International stocks both tiers. The printer uses HP dynamic security, so cartridges carrying modified or non-HP circuitry may stop working after a firmware update.
Can the HP DeskJet 2320 copy without a computer connected?
Yes. Copying runs entirely from the five-button control panel, producing up to nine copies per job at 600 x 300 dpi. Scanning works differently: the flatbed scanner sends images to an attached Windows computer, so a copy of your ID or a signed contract needs the USB cable plugged in. Scans save as PDF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or BMP through the HP printer software you install during setup.
How many pages can the HP DeskJet 2320 handle each month?
HP rates the duty cycle at up to 1000 A4 pages monthly, with a recommended volume of 50 to 100 pages. That recommended figure is the honest number to plan around. A home office printing receipts, a landlord printing agreements, or a student printing coursework sits comfortably inside it. A busy Nairobi CBD printing bureau running 500 pages daily will wear this machine out and should choose a laser unit.
Does the HP DeskJet 2320 run on Kenyan mains power?
Yes. The internal power supply accepts 220 to 240 volts at 50 to 60 Hz, matching Kenya Power's 240V 50Hz supply directly. No voltage converter or step-down transformer is needed. Draw is low: 1.83 watts idle, 0.83 watts asleep, and 0.05 watts switched off, so leaving it plugged in adds almost nothing to your token meter. We still recommend a surge protector where power fluctuates frequently.
Can the HP DeskJet 2320 print on both sides of a page?
Only manually. The Windows driver supports manual duplex: it prints the odd pages, then prompts you to flip the stack and reload it for the even pages. There is no automatic duplex mechanism inside the machine. For a 40-page report this adds a minute of handling. Students printing long documents and offices producing double-sided contracts should factor that step into their routine before choosing this model.
Does the HP DeskJet 2320 come with a USB cable?
No. HP packs the DeskJet 2320 with setup cartridges and a power cord, but the USB cable is sold separately, a detail that catches many first-time buyers at the counter. Mascom International stocks USB 2.0 printer cables and can add one to your order or hand it over at the store. Ask for it when you order so your first print job is not delayed.
Technical Specifications

- A two-cartridge design means one black and one colour unit, keeping replacement simple and stock easy.
- Dynamic security firmware blocks cartridges with modified or non-HP circuitry, so buy genuine 305 series ink.
- Mascom International keeps HP 305 and 305XL cartridges at our Kimathi Street counter for immediate replacement.
Build Power and Daily Operation
