HP Colour LaserJet Pro M281fdw Multifunction Printer

I've had this for a few years now and have only just needed to replace the toner! Used for home only. I switched from ink to laser and boy am I glad I did. We used to get through ink carts like nothing on earth, but this baby has stopped all that, it seemes to print forever and in great quality too. The firmware has just been upgraded as has the software which makes the Mac interface so much easier. Works great over Wifi so can print direct from phone etc. I haven't found anything to dislike about this product and as such would highly recommend it.

I’m always daunted by setting printers. In my experience whether due to poor design or my technical inability I never seem to find this process easy. Especially when connecting printers on to Home networks. Surprise surprise, I got this printer set up in five minutes! I was truly shocked...It really was that easy, and I was printing from my iPhone and iMac immediately. The cartridges were already in place and all I had to do was enter my Wi-Fi password. About the print quality- text is sharp and well defined and the colours are accurate. I wouldn’t say it’s the fastest printer around but if you are printing small runs or occasional jobs it’s brilliant. One other thing-the touchscreen is surprisingly responsive. It’s a good quality screen and I was able to easily access all of the options on the settings without multiple presses. Again this made the whole operation so easy and I had no issue finding all of the major functions like the scanner or copier. Great product. Only major downside - it’s quite heavy, so don’t bank on shifting this around very frequently.

I was very impressed with the set up and use of the device. It worked first time without any fuss (not something I expect with printers to be honest). The quality of prints is very good and the scan and copy functions work well. I cannot comment on the fax capability as I have no need of it. The toner cartridges for it are not cheap, but as they have very high capacity and my usage of the printer relatively light that is not an issue for me - the cost per page still works out lower than for inkjet printers and the fuss involved in changing a toner cartridge significantly lower than for ink ones. I have had one jam - when a reconfigured driver on a Linux device made it spew paper. It was relatively difficult to find the jam and needed tweezers to clear, but I have not had one since in typical operation. Possibly worth worrying about though if your need is for regular high volume prints. I got £100 cashback on a deal directly from HP which made the deal for me. Worth checking on their site if it, or similar deals are still available. For me it was the different between buying a (still good) inkjet or laser printer.

I bought this to replace an old Samsung Colour laser that died. It's smaller than the Samsung (which is good), but feels a bit flimsier (plastics all feel thinner and more brittle - especially the paper tray, which holds less paper than my Samsung and feels really fragile - I wouldn't advise regular changes of paper size in the tray - I'm guessing some little piece of plastic will break pretty fast if you aren't very careful. Setup was quick and easy, and the WiFI print worked instantly from my phone, which is a nice convenience. Print quality is excellent - I always prefer colour lasers over ink-jet as you don't get all the hassle with cartridges drying out and clogging if you don't use the printer for weeks at a time. Laser printers just work consistently every time (although lasers don't do so well printing on glossy 'photo' paper if that's your interest.) Printing from a USB stick also works really well. - Little touch-screen display is very simple to use. Scanning seems fine for domestic use - The software isn't great but there are plenty of alternatives around. Scanning is single sided, which makes scanning double sided documents really painful. Printing is quite noisy, especially double-sided, with lots of clicks and whirrs. All really a sign of components and plastics made as thin as possible for low-volume domestic or home-office use.

I use this in my home office. It is quiet most of the time, just making some noise when it prints. The initially supplied toner cartridges seem to last a long time even after the printer keeps saying they are low. The print quality is very clear (far improved over my previous HP inkjet) and the paper handling is good, with no jams yet. The scanner again works easily with no jams on multiple feeds of paper and there is comprehensive destinations for the scanned image - I generally use the email option. The only issue I have is that the scanner cannot scan both sides and from the printer itself you are stuck with single sided scans. However the PC software supplied has a feature where you can scan all one sides of a large document, then feed in all the other sides and it will join the sheets together in the correct order and output as a text searchable pdf.

Stampante perfetta! Sono riuscita ad installarla anch'io che con la tecnologia non ci vado molto d'accordo! A casa in meno di 24 ore, oggetto perfettamente imballato, dentro, una serie di manuali in tutte le lingue che spiegano passo passo come fare addirittura a estrarla dalla scatola (vi assicuro che contrariamente a quanto si pensi, non è così scontato..), stampa perfettamente, velocissima e silenziosa, fronte/retro automatico, wi-fi quindi non necessita di cavo usb dopo l'installazione, copia senza accendere il pc, copia con riduzione/ingrandimento fino al 400%, le foto vengono un pò opache, perchè ho la carta da getto d'inchiostro, spero che con la carta da laser vengano un pò più lucide. Per il resto il touch è comodssimo, il caricamento della carta a prova di idiota, la usb frontale ottima per le foto da cell o chiavetta. Se, come me, non avete il lettore cd sul pc, sul sito HP coi sono i driver completi e aggiornati da poter installare comodamente! Basta inserire il modello della stampante! Ultimo ma non ultimo, dopo aver passato un pomeriggio su Amazon a fare confronti, direi la più piccola e compatta sul mercato, se non sbaglio 42x42x34h, con un rapporto qualità prezzo incredibile..poi è una HP, non una marca X, quindi si spera che facciano le cose per bene ;)

J'ai acheté cette imprimante (modèle avec WIFI) en remplacement d'une imprimante à jet d'encre qui a rendu l'âme. Ayant l'expérience des solutions numériques pour l'impression d'épreuves de documents réalisés en PAO à mon travail, je ne voulais pas retomber dans le piège des imprimantes à jet d'encre, pour la plupart, moins chères à l'achat mais dont le coût des cartouches d'encre s'avère très onéreux. Ce modèle s'avère un exemple de facilité d'installation en connectant l'imprimante à Internet via ma station de travail. La solution logicielle offre une multitude de paramétrages et s'avère très bien conçue. La qualité d'impression est excellente pour les travaux courants et le scanner effectue correctement sa fonction. En résumé je suis très satisfait de mon achat. Je recommande ce produit d'un bon rapport qualité/prix, de même que je souligne le sérieux et l'efficacité des prestations d'ECOBUROTIC.

Habe diesen Drucker am Prime Day bestellt, da er für 244€ im Angebot war. Hatte davor schon knapp 10 Jahre einen HP Laserjet (HP cp1515n) der immer noch sehr gut funktioniert und ich sehr zufrieden war. Da die Toner bei anderen Anbietern teilweise etwas günstiger sind wollte ich mir erst einen Brother kaufen aber wenn man den Kaufpreis (Prime Day) rechnet sind sie bei gleicher Leistung auch ziemlich ähnlich. Ich drucke relativ wenig, hatte bei meinem alten Farblaser gerade mal ca. 2500 Seiten in der Zeit gedruckt. Deswegen waren mir die Kosten für einen Ersatztoner auch nicht so wichtig. Warum eigentlich nochmal einen Laserdrucker wenn ich nicht viel drucke? Wenn ich an die alten Tintenstrahldrucker zurück denke gab es doch oft nur Probleme mit eingetrockneten Druckköpfen und leeren Tintenpatronen. Also doch wieder einen Laserdrucker und wichtig war mir diesmal auch einer mit Scanner, Duplex und Fax. Genutzt werden soll er von einem MAC, Windows PC und natürlich auch von einem iPad oder iPhone. Hört sich von der Beschreibung interessant an und funktioniert auch echt gut bis jetzt. Erste Erfahrung war der Drucker ist leicht einzurichten und das Touch Display ist angenehm zu bedienen. Was der Drucker kann ist erstaunlich, ich kenne solche Funktionen eigentlich von Druckern die einiges mehr kosten. Die Füllmenge der Starteroner finde ich sehr gut, ich habe bei meinem alten HP Drucker die Farbtoner noch nie gewechselt und nur den schwarzen einmal. Denke das wird hier ähnlich sein vom Verbrauch. Der erste Eindruck war sehr gut, allerdings ist die Lautstärke beim drucken und Scannen doch etwas lauter als erwartet. Nicht schlimm aber der alte Scanner und Drucker die ich hatte waren leiser. Von der Verarbeitung sieht der Drucker wie von HP gewohnt gut verarbeitet aus. Für den Preis kann der Drucker viel und ist leicht zu bedienen. Würde ihn mir wieder kaufen! Preis/Leistung finde ich super, die Ersatztoner sind wenn man genau überlegt auch nicht so teuer, bei ca. 50€ für einen schwarzen Toner der für 1400 Seiten reicht. Da ich das meiste in SW drucke werde ich als Ersatz dann aber den XL bestellen der für unter 80€ schon zu haben ist und für 3200 Seiten reicht. 3 Jahre Garantie bekommt man auch nicht überall, das war auch noch ein Grund warum ich mich doch dafür entschieden habe.

Muy satisfecho con la compra. La instalación es muy simple. Se puede imprimir directamente desde el iPhone, sin ninguna configuración. No requiere ningún conocimiento técnico. Cuando no lo usa, se apaga y se enciende rápidamente cuando se necesita. Escanea y copia muy rápido y de alta calidad. Imprime no muy rápido, además es más ruidoso de lo que esperaba. Pero tiene una impresión de doble cara,es muy conveniente! Desafortunadamente, los cartuchos son muy caros. Pero para el uso raro de la casa, es simplemente excelente. El precio es increíblemente bajo.

Ótima impressão e muito fácil de usar!
