Overview
A built-in duplexer and a laser engine fed by JetIntelligence toner do the work in the HP LaserJet Pro printer, turning out black and white pages on both sides without hand flipping. It joins an office network by Ethernet or Wi-Fi, and phones can print directly over Wi-Fi Direct or AirPrint.
Wired Ethernet next to Wi-Fi lets a few desks share it without a dedicated computer. The controls are a basic LED panel rather than a touchscreen, and the starter toner runs out early.
Who it's for
Teams of a few people printing text documents to one shared device get speed and hands-free duplex. Home users who want copies, scans or color prints need an all-in-one instead.
Pros and cons
- Automatic duplex printing
- Wired Ethernet and Wi-Fi
- Wi-Fi Direct and AirPrint support
- Takes legal size and envelopes
- Monochrome output only
- Basic LED control panel
- Starter toner rated around 1000 pages
- USB cable not in the box list
Performance notes
Page rate comes from the laser engine, and the internal duplexer handles the second side without the user. JetIntelligence toner is HP's way of holding speed and page yield. Network printing over Ethernet avoids Wi-Fi dropouts, while Wi-Fi Direct lets a phone print without joining the office network.
