Overview
Small offices with a handful of people sharing one printer get a wireless color laser that prints both sides on its own. It connects over Wi-Fi, Ethernet or Bluetooth and ships with starter toner already installed.
Fast color pages, smart Wi-Fi that hunts for a stable connection and HP Wolf Pro Security make it easy to share in a small team. Cartridges with non-HP chips are blocked by firmware, so supply choice is limited.
Who it's for
Offices of up to ten people that mainly print color documents get speed and security without extra setup for IT. Anyone wanting to scan, copy or refill with non-HP toner should choose a different model.
Pros and cons
- Fast color printing
- Automatic two sided printing
- HP Wolf Pro Security
- Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth
- Blocks cartridges with non-HP chips
- Print only, no scan or copy
- Starter cartridges have low yields
- Modest print resolution
Performance notes
Laser output speed governs how fast long documents finish, and color runs only slightly slower than black. The Wi-Fi radio searches for the strongest signal, which reduces dropped connections in a shared office.
