[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am overall very happy with this printer. It prints really well and the colors are nice and vibrant. It has upped my crafting game with the quality of the images over my inkjet printer. It prints quickly and takes no time to print large amounts. My only complaint is that it is not wifi compatible and as my router is in another room, I did have to purchase an adapter to set it up in my home office.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Product great, HP... not so much

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this is a tough one for me. This printer is great, it's fast, it's reliable, it's efficient. It has two trays so I can easily set printing to each tray based on what I'm printing (envelopes, paper, etc). The problem though, comes to the HP Smart driver / HP Smart Universal Driver. This driver forces you to use a HP Smart printer configuration tool instead of the normal Windows one. This tool is absolute junk. You set preferences and save it, then the HP App just decides "NOPE, we're going to undo that and make automatic adjustments based on what we think is best." There is a default Windows IPP driver that works just fine though, so if you do go this route, avoid the HP drivers at all cost if you have specific printing configuration requirements. But if you're just using this to print normal paper, it's not an issue.
Besides the driver issue, the actual printer itself is great. I thoroughly enjoy the speed of a laserjet compared to an inkjet. The double-sided printing is great also.
For my small business, this printer meets all of our needs and expectations. Definitely worth the buy if you're looking for something reliable.

GREAT SMALL BUSINESS COMPUTER

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This printer is good for a home office or small business. The print quality is great even for color documents. The printer is quiet and doesn’t take up a lot of small. We did have a difficult time connecting the printer to the internet, because we believed the printer had a wireless internet adapter, it doesn’t. You will have to use a wireless adapter or an Ethernet cord to connect the printer to the internet. Also, we wish we had selected a printer with touchscreen capabilities.

Excellent Printer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are brand new owners of a small consulting business and this printer is really great for our needs. It's a huge step up from our old inkjets, works lightning fast and we get a quality print every single time. No more printer telling us "I won't print your black and white job because I'm out of magenta!"
The one small thing that was annoying to me was that it does NOT come wi-fi ready, and you'll have to procure and use an adapter to use without being hardwired. We had one laying around, so it was no big deal, but that could be a huge annoyance to someone wanting to set up and go right away and finding a missing part.
We like to print from all sorts of devices including phones, and the printer has oodles of options to choose from. It has easy to find and use trays, and in a month of using it, I haven't had a single jam or botched job. I'm very impressed by it.
The single touch and press wheel to get to all the menus is nice, makes the printer look streamlined and neat.
It's a great printer and I anticipate it lasting and serving our needs for a long time.

great printer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is a workhorse. It's quick and acurate. Network integration was simple with one ethernet cord. once attached to the network everything could see the printer with minimal setup from my iphone to my pc in another room. It does everything well from color to both side printing. The secondary feed draw is great and feeds wonderfuly. This will be a solid part of my office for years to come.

Solid color laser printer for home office use!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second HP printer and my first HP color laser printer. My other printer is an HP color inkjet printer. This printer is a little on the heavier side, so it would take some time to take out of the box, but it comes ready to go. I was surprised to see that the toners were pre-installed, and all the printer needed was papers and the power connection. Even though the printer is heavy, it has a very small footprint, and once you set it, you’re pretty much done. I chose not to update the printer as I wanted to be able to use 3rd party toners, and I wish that HP didn’t focus too much on the toner subscription and forced users to do updates often. I understand the security aspect behind it, but this is just overkill. For home office and small business users, this printer would be the perfect option. For print jobs that need to be quick and long, this printer fares much better than its inkjet counterparts. I’m glad that I got this!

Fantastic home office printer but…

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This printer is a great find: it's fast, accurate, and super quiet. Plus, its compact size makes it perfect for smaller surfaces. It's ideal for a home office or small business, handling almost everything you could need.
The only snag we hit was getting it online. We didn't think to check if it was WiFi-compatible since most things are these days, but this one only works with Ethernet. Setting it up took a bit longer than expected, but luckily, we had a cable port in the office. Once we got it connected though it worked like a charm!

Works Every Time

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We go long periods without printing in our house. Because of that, we often need to reboot printers that won't wake up. This printer doesn't have that problem! When we click the 'print' button, it always wakes up and prints. The quality and speed are excellent.
Physically setting up the printer was simple, once we got a long enough ethernet cable. Our computers also were able to add it easily.
The only two downsides I see are the lack of wi-fi and the printer randomly waking up. Once or twice a day, the printer wakes up, makes sounds like it's going to print, but doesn't and goes back to sleep. But those are small prices to pay for a printer that always works.
I would recommend this to a friend!
