Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We bought this printer as a replacement for an Epson inkjet printer that the suffered from poor print quality and frustratingly short ink cartridge lifespan. I wanted to upgrade to a laser jet that still retained the copy and scan functions that we used on our old Epson. I also wanted something small that would not be a bear to operate given we use it in a home office and print less than 1000 pages a year -- a major issue with the Epson because there would be some months where we rarely printed and the ink would dry out. I was about the buy another HP model which turned out to be last years version of this printer, but I saw the new version in a retail store and liked the fact it had a larger sheet tray and increased print speeds from 19 ppm to 22 ppm. At $429 its not a cheap printer -- but handles all the functions we wanted well. Setup was easy out of the box -- plugged it in and found my home WIFI in seconds. I was able to print directly from my Mac and iPhone without installing any drivers or software. The toner cartridges were pre-installed and included a normal yield black toner cartridge (which should last us 12-18 months) and the three starter color cartridges. Printing was fast and the quality of mono-printing comparable to the laser printers I use at work. The scanner was automatically recognized by my Mac and worked flawlessly. The sheet feeder was quick and able to scan and copy without any issues. The touch screen is small but is functional. The small screen did not bother me as you end up rarely using the touch screen unless you are copying or scanning to a USB drive -- which I have not tried yet. This printer also works with web services which allows you to print to an email address or through Facebook Messenger -- although I think I may end up turning that feature off for security reasons. All in all, this was a good quality printer for a home office or small home-based business. I am so glad to get rid of the inkjet -- the nightmare of dried out ink is a thing of the past with this quality laser printer.
