Overview
Home office workers and small teams get one machine that prints, copies and scans in black, with a feeder that takes a stack of originals. It connects over Wi-Fi, a wired network or USB and prints from mobile devices on the network.
A document feeder and duplex printing in a compact laser box take care of most paperwork for a small office. Fax is not part of it, and the toner model is not named.
Who it's for
Remote workers and small offices handling contracts, forms and copies will use the feeder and duplex daily. People who need color pages or fax should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Document feeder for multi-page copies
- Automatic duplex printing
- Wired and wireless networking
- Manual feed slot for envelopes
- No fax function listed
- Toner cartridge model not listed
- Heavier than print-only models
Performance notes
Copy and scan throughput depends on the document feeder, which pulls originals one by one so stacks run unattended. Duplex printing turns each sheet inside the machine, slowing two-sided jobs a little. Envelopes go through the manual feed slot, which spares the main tray from a size change.
