Bad Printer

 

It worked like it should the first 3 days

Started receiving No Paper Pickup error then some silver dust started smearing the paper IN THE TRAY! I later found out that this happens a lot to this model. Beware this printer

Very Good Printer - But

 

I would still buy this printer again.

HP M401n: This is a great buy at a great NewEgg price. Fast, inexpensive to run. Very, very quiet

I have two of these printers. I got the first one in mid-May, the second one from Newegg about one month ago. But - and this is the But above; quiet comes at a price, although it is on, although I have been printing pages ten or fifteen minutes...

Reliable Workhorse

 

Purchased this 3+ yrs ago as a bookkeeper's work printer (bottom tray is plain paper, main tray is check-stock). There was a point in time when some documents printed with garbled text. This issue mysteriously went away on its own later; I suspect it...

Easy network configuration (ie. Static IP). Additional bottom tray was simple to add. High-yield cartridge lives up to the name. Much faster responsiveness compared to the machine it replaced. Printing directly on envelopes with the bypass tray is...

Duplex is manual, via the bypass tray, which can be confusing as far as orientation. The additional tray does not clamp/clip on to the bottom of the main unit

Good HP Printer, some chiseling from HP

 

Overall I recommend this printer and we have 3 of them. We've standardized on this as our personal printer of choice to eliminate the difficulty of supporting multiple printer types.

Attractive design ; Rapid print speed ; Excellent print quality

The printer ships WITHOUT a USB cable. Unacceptably cheap on HP's part ; Sometimes the printer fails to recognize there is paper loaded in the manual feed tray and pulls from the regular paper tray

Retail Paint Store Printers

 

These are the workhorses of the printer industry. The setup was simple as in networking them and using them. They churn out invoices day after day flawlessly

Excellent printer!

 

Not sure about those on the market right now but the OEM that came with this printer hit at least 4k pages. Really surprised me. I mostly print forms, documents and letters.

If you need a monochrome printer for small to mid size business I recommend this one. I had 3 of these in my previous office and they were still operating strong after 4 years when I left. Because of that when I opened my new office I bought 2 and when...

It wasn't free
