HP LaserJet Pro M402dw Wireless Laser Printer with Double-Sided Printing, Amazon Dash Replenishment ready (C5F95A)

This printer was a replacement for a HP 5P printer that served me well for over 15 years. It looked like it was a good fit for my limited desk space and had some nice features so I tried to find a good review. They were few and far between and most people using them had complained when it was set up as a wireless printer but I intended to hook it up with a network cable directly to my wireless router. Finally I decided I definitely needed to replace the broken 5P, so I decided to take a plunge. That was nearly two months ago and so far I havent regretted my decision. The pros: I find it very fast; Setup was a piece of cake; it prints both sided to save paper when theres multiple pages to print; plenty of space for paper and easy to manually feed; I have several printers and I do not believe theres a cheaper way to print a page when all costs are calculated; I can access it from my desktop, my lap top, my upstairs computer and my smart phone. Cons: (which so far havent bother me) It is a bit noisy when printing but quiets down quickly after printing; cartridges are a bit more per page than my old 5P. If this printer lasts even half as long as my 5P, Ill think it was a good deal.

It is fast, it duplexes fast, it prints beautifully, it works wirelessly well. Basically, it does exactly what it claims to do. Sure, you have to pick and choose which components of the HP software to install so you dont get all their junk, just the PCL6 driver, and sure you have to tell the software on every separate computer install not to set up web printing (thanks, I dont want to ever send my documents to HP on their way to my printer), but those are small annoyances. The printer works, and the other stuff is easily overridden. It has a nice small footprint, it is silent when not printing. Good choice.

I bought this printer to replace an old HP 2100TN printer that I bought around 13-14 years ago. I know people have had mixed experienced with HP these days, reading through the comments for this printer proved no different. Some good, some bad. But HP has always been good to me, so we decided to give this one a try. First impressions: Much smaller form factor than I anticipated. Compared to our old beast this one if much more efficiently sized. My wife could easily pick this up if needed, the old printer, not a chance in hell. I have this printer setup using a wired connection, setting the IP information was straight forward with the LCD display. Update: I really enjoy being able to print to this printer directly from my iPhone. I never thought I would use this functionality but Ive had several PDFs and emails that I printed directly. Saved me some time. I would recommend downloading the latest firmware from HP and updating. I believe you can do this from the printers web interface, I chose to do it directly from HP and running the installer from my PC. I had no problems installing the printer from PC or MAC. Being able to print on both sides of the paper is something I am finding myself using more than I ever thought. So far I had not had any jams or other issues. I would definitely recommend.
