LaserJet MFP M234dw Wireless Printer, Print, scan, Copy, Fast speeds, Easy Setup, Mobile Printing, Best-for-Small Teams, Instant Ink Eligible

So far this printer has worked well. Quickly prints with clear and focused printing. The printer sits two rooms away from my laptop and I have had no issues with the Wifi. I love that the footprint of the machine is smaller and does not overwhelm the space. I do not do lots of printing, maybe only a few times a week, so I cannot speak to its large capacity printing. The copying function is fine, but I have not used the scanning yet (not much need for it). I would say it is a good printer, based on my experience so far, perfect for small to average home use. The set-up was relatively easy for an amateur who follows directions well, as I would not call myself tech-savvy. Very satisfied with this purchase.

I needed a new printer that could handle a fairly high print volume but that wouldn't take up much room in my home office. Set up was fairly simple and I love that it is wireless. Another great feature is that it prints double sided which helps save me on paper. I was able to print a 21 page document in under a minute. All pages printed with great quality. This printer is also much quieter than my previous one. I have not only used regular paper in it but also some thin cardstock and it worked flawlessly. Having a flat bed scanner is also wonderful because it is allowing me to copy documents quickly and easily. From important documents to coloring pages, this printer seems to do it all. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a compact printer that is both versatile and easy to use. I feel it is perfect for both personal and professional use and I feel I will get many good years of use of it.

Long time ink-jet user for 25 years with various printer brands. My printing needs have changed over the years and this meant dry printheads from less frequent printing lately. I rarely print pictures anymore and don't really need color printing. So the logical choice was a laser printer. I did sacrifice having a document feeder for scanning because of space constraints but this was a small price to pay. Setup was quite simple including WiFi connection using the HP Smart app. However I was bugged by the need to create an HP account and login for doing basically anything. WHY DO I NEED a frigging HP account to scan a page??? I downloaded the HP Universal Scan software from the HP web site (full feature software and driver) which works locally without any HP login and installed it. You don't need to subscribe to anything or need to use the HP Smart app to use the printer. As is, I am able to print from my Android phone without installing any extra app and a recent visitor was able to print from their own Windows 11 laptop by just adding a network printer and without installing anything extra. I also went ahead and disabled HP web services on the printer which is not needed for normal use unless you subscribe to the instant ink service. Be aware of the things this printer DOES NOT do before you purchase: color printing, multi-page scanning (no document feeder) and fax.

Initially, I rated this as an okay printer. Now, not so much. It does not come with basic operation instructions. Today I had hoped to do a basic scanning and there were no instructions to be found. Hopefully, tomorrow I can contact their support staff for those instructions. This is tiresome! At first, I gave it three stars because it only prints black print, and I so loved my color printer before it stopped working. Also, I purchased this printer, because the majority of the reviews shared that it was an 'easy setup.' For me, it was not an easy setup. Fortunately, I found an IT specialist who was available and set it up for me ... and I paid him. Knowing that I am not very techy, I had hoped that the 'easy setup' information was accurate. Again, it was not easy for me to set up, and I spent hours trying to figure out the step in the basic instructions before reaching out to a specialist. Now that it is setup, it seemed fine. Not great, yet adequate for my basic printing needs. However, now I cannot figure out how to scan a simple document ... sigh. Yesterday, I contacted HP, talked with a person who was kind, patient, and had no idea how to help me. He actually disconnected my printing capability that I previously paid an IT specialist to set up. We worked together for maybe 30 to 45 minutes, and I finally asked for a supervisor. Eventually, the supervisor helped me, and after about maybe one and one-half hours later, I was able to print and scan. This is not an 'easy set up.'

This is a compact, sturdy printer, easily fits on my small desk beside computer. The instructions are 4 steps, very easy. You simply plug in cord ,attach the plastic paper cover shield, install the HP software from the provided website, and connect the printer to your wi-fi. Simple as that. You must have Windows 10 or more to install this printer, so check your computer for what version you are running, and update your version if needed. The only issue I had was looking up what my Wi-Fi password was, then I realized it is written on the router itself so solved that quickly. I have never tried a laser jet printer before, but I am glad I did because the speed of printing compared to my old printer is outstanding, very fast with great quality in the print. The directions are simple and straight forward, simply four steps, and just the power chord is all you need to plug in to get this printer started. As for the toner, the printer comes with a pamphlet that has the HP instant ink printing plan which allows you to save up to 50% on toner with the printing plan. I have not tried the plan yet, but will keep that for when the toner needs a refill in the future.

Some of the reviews almost scared me off the purchase of this unit. Happy to report - none of what I read - turned out to be true for me. No issues with the WiFi (I assigned it a static IP - it always gets the same IP address from my router). No problems with printer 'sleep' settings - printer awakens nicely each time - even after sitting idle for days (Sleep settings are configurable). Printing is clean, crisp and fast (duplex - on both sides of paper if desired). Shared with both my Android (15-16) and Windows 11 devices. I was not forced or tricked into signing up for Instant Ink subscriptions. I buy HP branded toner cartridges (by choice) - whenever I need them - through Amazon. Not a high volume printer user anymore - so I'm not interested in buying 3rd party toners to save some bucks (I believe some people get into trouble - once they try to use those generic toners - the printer firmware will try to prevent you from their use). I can't be bothered with the potential aggravation with their use - I just buy HP toner and use high quality 24lb (Navigator Brand) laser or multipurpose paper. Very happy with my printer purchase. Great for student/home use. (40 Year IT professional-Retired)

Some HP printers require the user to install using their smart app for installation. I was able to connect via ethernet, pressed the i button to print the information page that has the ip address, then I typed in the ip into the web browser to manage it. I went to System > Administration and checked for updates since mine did not have the most recent 20230307 firmware. The firmware has "dynamic security measures" which will block non-HP cartridges unless it has HP chip or circuitry. I went to HP's website and downloaded the Feb 8, 2023 Full 188MB driver. During the software installation the screen went blank, so I let it sit for several minutes to no avail. Eventually I clicked the X to cancel, but it offered a link to install the driver, and the install was successful. I completed a scan using the HP scan app and printed a test page. Print jobs seem fast, and the printer itself is a relatively compact design. Overall this is a fantastic all-in-one laser that gives the user the ability to do a conventional install without the added hassles of HP smart.

Right from receiving the order and setting it up for printing it was a very easy process. All it took 15 mins to print the 1st page. Paper Tray is good enough to handle sufficient papers. Printing quality is amazing. i did compared print outs with my old printer and this new one. HP Laserjet is a clear winner. Double side printing is an amazing feature and it works seamlessly in this machine. Scanner: Very important feature i use mostly is scanning. This flat bad scanner gave an excellent color and black and white scanning and the edge feature and rotating feature is amazing to get the desired output. The option to scan as an image and pdf is additional hat to this printer. Copier: Simple copy process and quick. Multiple pages copy worked well as well. Overall this printer is a good one for Home Office and for households with students where lot of printing needs come into play.. A SATISFIED CUSTOMER

Great machine and really easy to set up and use. Highly recommend recommended

I have had this for about 4 months and surprisingly I haven't had a single issue. I have it set up on my home network and it just...works. Any device connected to my network can print to it and the speed and quality is great. Scanning is just as easy too. We'll see how long the toner lasts, but I've printed hundreds of pages and it's still going strong. I also like how it just sits in low power mode and comes on when you need it and you don't have to power it on first. Overall very happy with this printer.

Great printer/scanner for the price. Easy to set up and easy to use and it doesn't take up too much space.. Does the job & the printing is good quality.

Easy to setup and smaller than the previous one. Highly recommend

Excellent product, great price. Just as described
