All the Features you want, the price you need!
I have been using the HP LaserJet Pro4201dw for a few weeks now and it has proven to be an excellent printer. We use it at our home business to print business documents from contracts to flyers and the kids get their color pictures too. I can tell you this printer is impressive. Print quality and speed is top notch. This printer prints like a professional printer yet is small enough to tuck away into the corner of my office! Durability and manufacturer detail is realized right out of the box, and this printer was built for the long run.
One of the features I love is the auto duplex printing option. Auto duplexing helps to save paper automatically by automatically printing on both sides. This is my first printer with auto duplexing, and it is a time and paper saver! Tax season is going to put this printer through its paces, and I know it's going to be an excellent saver all the way around!
One thing I struggled with was setup. I am usually not a rule follower and went out on my own as I had set up previous printers in the past. It took me longer than it should have, and I confused myself! Setup was easy if I followed the steps provided and didn’t go out of order. That’s the biggest advice I have for pain-free setup. Follow the directions and it’s a breeze!
Overall, this printer is a great color laser printer that has all the features you want in a professional printer, built to last and at a price to keep the budget in order!

YOU CAN NO LONGER CONSERVE YOUR HP COLOR CARTRIDGES. - NO B&W printing option
Be prepared to not only be held hostage to using toner cartridges with HP’s proprietary chip - I can live with that - but this printer has NO OPTION to print B&W only, thus no means to conserve the color ink in their high priced toner cartridges. HP just went for what “works for them” not what "serves their customer". I am thoroughly disgusted by this significant change after having used HP printers for decades...

Workhorse!
I received this product in return for an honest review.
This printer truly stands out in the market. Here's why I love it:
First and foremost, the print quality is exceptional. My presentations look professional and eye-catching. The printer's ability to handle a wide range of media sizes and types further adds to its versatility.
Setting up the printer was incredibly simple. Thanks to its wireless connectivity, I was able to connect it effortlessly to my home network, allowing multiple devices to access it without a hitch. The user-friendly interface and controls on the printer's touchscreen made navigating through various options and settings easy and convenient.
Another standout is its printing speed. There's no time to stand around waiting, it's that fast. The printer's large input and output trays also add to its efficiency by reducing how often I have to reload paper.
So far I haven't encountered any paper jams or technical glitches. This printer is built to handle heavy workloads, making it an excellent choice for both small offices and larger organizations.
Its energy-saving features and automatic on/off functionality help reduce power consumption, making it an eco-friendly device.
Whether it's printing directly from a USB drive or using the mobile printing feature, this printer provides seamless integration with other devices and is compatible with cloud storage.
This printer is a powerhouse and has exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend considering the HP Color LaserJet Pro 4201dw.

Product great, HP... not so much
So this is a tough one for me. This printer is great, it's fast, it's reliable, it's efficient. It has two trays so I can easily set printing to each tray based on what I'm printing (envelopes, paper, etc). The problem though, comes to the HP Smart driver / HP Smart Universal Driver. This driver forces you to use a HP Smart printer configuration tool instead of the normal Windows one. This tool is absolute junk. You set preferences and save it, then the HP App just decides "NOPE, we're going to undo that and make automatic adjustments based on what we think is best." There is a default Windows IPP driver that works just fine though, so if you do go this route, avoid the HP drivers at all cost if you have specific printing configuration requirements. But if you're just using this to print normal paper, it's not an issue.
Besides the driver issue, the actual printer itself is great. I thoroughly enjoy the speed of a laserjet compared to an inkjet. The double-sided printing is great also.
For my small business, this printer meets all of our needs and expectations. Definitely worth the buy if you're looking for something reliable.

Quiet, speedy and high quality prints
I was sent a free sample of this printer and would rank it 4.5 out of 5 stars. The positives are definitely the quality and speed of the printer. I am a real estate agent and rely heavily on a color printer for my open house and other marketing materials, as well as contracts and documents for each deal. Being able to print full-color pages at lightning speed is such a game changer for my business and the reason why I would keep this printer for my work. The colors are pretty similar to what I see on the screen so I was very happy with the quality of the final page. In terms of noise, the printer is extremely quiet compared to inkjet printers and after the job is done it goes to sleep mode so you don't even notice it's on. It connected seamlessly to the Wi-Fi network, which hasn't been my experience with previous printers. The phone and computer app (HP Smart) is very intuitive and easy to use. I am always on the go so this feature definitely came in handy when I had to quickly get docs printed for my client meetings.
On the other hand, the biggest drawback for me is that the printer does not have a built-in scanner. Another thing that I would like to see in future models is a full-color touch screen rather than the black and white screen with the 360 turn-and-click dial. Although easy to use, I found the dial's sensitivity to be quite low and the printer interface felt somewhat old-school. This printer is heavy, but that only matters when you take it out of the box.
Overall I enjoyed the experience of testing out this printer and I would say it definitely lives up to the advertised capabilities.

Fastest
I felt the set up was very easy to do on my tablet and chromebook. I was able to connect to my WIFI and easily print from my devices. I was pleasantly surprised to see how fast the printer worked and the quality of the printing is very good.
The quality of the printing is so good. I can print it from my phone too. That is the best part too.

Once connected, more than expected!
I was sent this product for free to review.
I will start with saying I did not have luck initially but after getting this printer set up I am beyond impressed.
I am a territory sales manager and always needing to print flyers for handing out at my different sales stops. This printer is the answer. I’ve attached a video of how quickly it can print as well as its quality. Looks professional even on basic paper! Very fast and ink is dry to the touch upon printing. Literally takes 3 seconds for a full color photo.
Initial set up I could not get the Wi-Fi to be found on the small but functional display. I struggled trying to get this to work but eventually used the supplied usb cord to hook to my computer were it was able to share the Wi-Fi information and now the printer is completely wireless.
There is a usb port also for quick printing from thumb drive using the included screen/buttons on printer. Also using this it has some preset quick documents like graphing paper (that can be adjusted for size needs), notebook paper, check lists, etc. which make it nice when needing to make quick notes in the office but wanting to stay organized.
Will like to see how many pages this prints before needing ink but wow even the documents are super crisp.

Blazing fast, high quality color printing!
I received this printer in exchange for a review. I am a seasoned HP printer user, and have recently been using the MFP M281fdw and MFP M283fdw models at home and for my business. Set up for the HP Color Laser Jet Pro 4201dw is pretty straightforward and it was easy to connect to my home WiFi. I was able to set it up quickly on my laptop (PC). I tried a variety of types of printing, from standard one-sided to double-sided to Avery labels. Wow, this is fast! Much faster compared to my other HP printers, especially for color printing. It is supposed to do about 35 pages per minute. I think my old printers are only 22. I do a lot of printing of colored brochures and leaflets for my business and this will make things much faster! With my past HP printers, I occasionally would have issues with the printers disconnecting from my laptop, although it was sporadic. Honestly I think it had more to do with my laptop. Usually rebooting seemed to make it work again. Once in a great while I had to reset the WiFi network setup process on my printer. I haven’t used it enough to know if this will be an issue with this printer, but since I got a new laptop last year, I haven’t experienced it. So fingers crossed! Color quality is great, even with printing heavy full color pages of PowerPoint presentations. Overall very satisfied with the printer. Biggest difference for me is the speed.

Fast and Easy to Use
I have been very happy with the HP LaserJet 4201dw printer. Right out of the box the setup was super easy and connected to my WiFi network with no issues. I love the fact of how fast it can print in both color or black and white, which makes larger printing jobs a breeze. Printing over our network as also been very stable and the app is easy to use from our tablets. The only printing function I have not used is the USB plug, but it is nice knowing that I do have that option. The paper tray hold a lot and so does the multi paper tray as well. The printer seems to do everything and can even print on envelopes which will make Christmas cards super easy this year. Overall I have been very happy with the quality of the prints, speed and how easy it has been to use.

Great for small businesses!
I should mention upfront that I received this printer for free in exchange for this review. I’ve been in the market for a printer to use at home for a while now, and the HP Color LaserJet Pro 4201dw Wireless Printer didn’t disappoint. This printer is perfect for those in need of fast, reliable printing. This printer advertises impressive print speeds, with up to 38 pages per minute in both black and color, and this is the speed that I experienced upon testing it out. The first page out time is also at just ~6 seconds for black and ~7 seconds for color. This means that you can get your printing done quickly and efficiently, without having to wait around for documents to finish printing. Setting up the printer is also a breeze, thanks to its easy to use interface and step by step instructions. The printer comes with a quick start guide that walks you through the setup process, and the HP Smart app makes it simple to connect your devices wirelessly to the printer. This app also allows for easy mobile printing from your smartphone or tablet, so you can print documents on the go.

The printer also has the ability to detect and stop attacks, and it can automatically reboot itself if an attack is detected. In terms of print quality, the HP color LaserJet pro does not disappoint. The colors are vibrant and true to life, and the text is crisp and clear. The printer also has the ability to handle a variety of media types and sizes, making it a versatile option for any office or home. Overall, the HP color LaserJet pro is a great option for small teams in need of a fast, reliable, and secure printing solution. Its impressive print speeds, easy setup, mobile printing capabilities, and advanced security features make it a top choice for any home or office looking to upgrade their printing capabilities. Additionally, its high-quality print output ensures that your documents will always look professional. If you're in the market for a new printer, the HP color LaserJet pro is definitely worth the buy.

Beautiful images
So far I am loving this printer. I’ve had a few brands but love HP, the colors are perfect, looks just like the originally picture or page. The speed of the printer is awesome, I hit print and before I can get out of my seat it’s done. Hook up was simple. I have had an issue with it somehow changing to manual two sided printing and I cannot figure out how to switch it back. Other than that it’s been great, colors are beautiful, connectivity was easy.

Great printer
This printer is practically perfect. Between being compact, great picture quality, a nice design that doesn't look like your typical '90s office printer, there's not much wrong about this printer. Actually, one of the only things that I wish it had was the ability to be a scanner! Aunt two paper trays would have been a nice touch but it shouldn't be the difference between buying this printer and not . The worst part about the setup was removing all the stickers as they tended to tear. A lot!
Print quality and print speed were second to none. Aunt, the access to the toner cartridges is a great engineering feat having All four of them on a single tray that pulls out. Over Wi-Fi My document prints within seconds of me pressing the print icon. It's actually kind of scary how fast it does print. I did a couple photos but only on regular paper and I was very pleased with the quality. Actually more than very pleased. I was very shocked by how good it was. And no wet paper like a inkjet would be! And the printer is surprisingly not loud for a laser. I won't say quiet like a inkjet but not loud like laser printers of the past. You know it's printing but you're not scared it's going to explode!
One thing to keep in mind is when I was going through the setup on the printer it asked me if I wanted to update the firmware. It warned me that I would not be able to use some third-party toner suppliers if I applied this firmware. I was shocked by this announcement. And shocked that they actually admitted to it before. Just doing it. I had a different printer that kept pestering me for firmware updates and eventually I did it and it didn't allow me to use third party inks anymore. I am very not happy with this unnamed company! Having the ability to choose and the knowledge of the changes is a big step forward with some companies. This led me to think very highly of HP as previously I would have tried to choose otherwise!
So other than the stickers, the only other issue I have had is printing while on a VPN for work. I'm very certain it's possible and I don't remember how I did it on my previous printer but now I just have to sit down and spend a few minutes to figure it out as it isn't just a nice simple process.

Aesthetically Pleasing and Great Looking Printer
This is an aesthetically pleasing and a great looking printer. I like the blue color in the front facade. The setup was very easy and quick. It connected with the Wifi very swiftly. The knob design is a new one and it would take a little time to get used to it. It is an interesting concept.
Printouts come out at a very fast pace and the print quality is amazing. I am really liking the capability to print from mobile phones.
I would recommend to my friends and family members.

Really great printer
I've used lots of printers in my career, and this one is really good. It's a bit heavy and huge, but it comes with everything you need to connect. Plus, it's wireless, and connecting it to WiFi was a breeze. I managed to set it up myself. It prints fast, colors are great, hardly ever jams, and you can print from your phone, which is awesome. Zero connectivity issues. Oh, and it's also really quiet. Overall, its weight and size aren't deal-breakers.

Quality prints
I received my HP LaserJet 4201dw printer and immediately got to work. Setup was faitly simple. Follow the onscreen instructions using the dial on top of the machine to make your selections.
As soon as I got my printer set up and updated the firmware, my children gathered for their chance to utilize this exciting new contraption. Ever since I have been printing coloring pages for contented littles.
However, that is not ALL I have been up to! I was able to print some photos for my mother-in-law who lives out of the country. My teenager needed some documents printed for school, and I have prepared work projects. The list goes on!
I know this printer will be well-loved by my large family. It included a free two-month subscription to Instant Ink, HP's savings program for toner so that I never have to run out in the middle of a project!
Overall, this is a solid machine that works for the needs of my family. I would definitely recommend it.

Not the easiest to set up, but works well.
I am returning to HP for my small business needs to print documents and promotional material after a brief stint with another brand. I like that the cost per print and longevity of cartridges seems to be a better fit for my company's needs. Set up was a bit challenging and it took some time to get it to sync for wireless printing. Took some tinkering to get Windows to recognize and begin to print successfully. Once I managed to get it connected, it printed right away. I'm happy with the speed of printing and the quality of the prints. I also appreciate the color screen to check supply, but the knob can be a little unresponsive versus push buttons I am used to. So far, no paper jams, even with duplex printing.

Perfect Printer for my Home Office
I could not be happier with this printer. For years I have had a black/white laser printer and a separate color inkjet printer set up in my office. This printer has been a game changer. I am no longer switching out cords. This printer is exactly what I was looking for. The print quality is top notch. It was so easy to connect and even easier to use. I highly recommend this printer!

Advanced High-Quality Printer
This printer has blown me away by its print quality. I am able to print photo prints at home. The print time from sleep to print is about 3-5 seconds which is really nice to see in a laser printer. Additionally, it has awesome security features, user management, and print (storage) locations.
The user interface takes some time to get used to. For example, it only has a dial to enter the password which was a bit frustrating. Also, connectivity was a bit difficult as it timed out on me a few times. Once setup, however, it has been perfect and have had no issues at all.
I am beyond happy with the printer!

Perfect for a home office
I received an email asking if I would test a printer and write a review and I could keep it. Sure, I thought, it will be some broken down piece of junk. Boy, was I wrong. This is a HP Color LaserJet Pro wireless printer. It's just like one that my work uses. Installation was a breeze and I was printing pages in a matter of minutes. We print a lot of color documents and we will be using this to replace our previous printer. It prints fast from two laptops and my phone. I highly recommend this printer.

Fast printing
I felt the set up was very easy to do on my tablet and chromebook. I was able to connect to my WIFI and easily print from my devices. I was pleasantly surprised to see how fast the printer worked and the quality of the printing is very good.
Cons:
I am not a fan of the knob that’s used to choose the settings and other things on the printer. Having to turn the knob to find the right letter takes a little too much time and sometimes it took a few tries to get the right letter. The screen also seems too bright. Plus, unfortunately I am still trying to figure out how to download the driver onto my desktop. Every time I try it disappears and I am unable to find the answer on the HP support page.

The setup went much more smoothly than I had expected. The wifi seamlessly established the connections to all my desktops and handheld devices.

So far, I am very pleased with this investment and would highly recommend this printer.

Solid and high quality printer with superb efficiency
I received a free sample of this printer to review and absolutely love the quality and efficiency of the print jobs I've used it for so far.
I own a small business and frequently print items ranging from shipping labels to thank you cards. I am looking forward to printing additional advertising material for my business as I am confident the printer will produce excellent results.
The printer not only reduces my time in bulk printing, but also provides high quality results whether its black and white or color jobs.
Overall, the printer is quite sturdy and met all my expectations in terms of being highly efficient and accommodating the variety of printing I use for my business and personal needs.
Setup for the printer was very straightforward and completed with ease.
I would highly recommend this printer for those seeking a professional printer for multi-use purposes whether personal or for business.

Fast and clear printing! Love this printer!
I was sent a free sample of this HP color laser jet pro 4201dw wireless printer. I have to say that this printer works amazing. The color of the ink is so pretty on the printed document. It's clear and it prints quite quickly. Way faster than my hp envy printer that i had previously. The printer is quite a bit larger than my last printer so I had to find a better and bigger spot to set the printer since i don't have a shelf specifically for printers. But all in all this prints way better and clearer Than my older smaller printer. And much faster. I'm impressed.

Perfect when you have a separate scanner!
I used the USB port to load a firmware upgrade, which was easy for me but not clearly documented for less techy users. Otherwise, the software setup was a breeze. Having a quality scanner I prefer this slightly smaller footprint over HP's typical AIO ("all-in-one") printers. Besides the fact that the scanners with the AIO units are generally inferior to a free standing scanner. But I stick with HP for all my printer needs.

Difficult installation but terrific printer
Initially I couldn't install the software. I have an HP Phoenix desktop running Win 7 64-bit, and tried to install it using a USB cable (I didn't need the wireless/bluetooth feature). I logged onto the help desk and a truly terrific technician spent a lot of time trying to install the drivers and software. Finally, using what he called an "alternative method", he succeeded. I am now thrilled with this printer! Compared to my old (14 yrs) HP Color LaserJet 1600, this is SO MUCH faster, quieter, sharper and truer colors, and it does double-sided printing automatically (for my old 1600, I had to remove the papers and reprint the pages for the other side). It was worth the few hours of frustration I spent, and the couple of hours of your help desk, to get things running. And, maybe, if I had a newer operating system it might have been no trouble at all to install. I highly recommend this printer.

Absolutely Marvelous
To say I’m absolutely blown away by the HP Color LaserJet Pro Printer would be a complete understatement. I’ve owned several printers throughout my life and this printer tops every other printer I’ve owned, by far. I absolutely love that it is a color laser printer, I print documents several times a day and the quality color that this printer produces is outstanding. The second picture I added to this post is a customized picture of the 3 kitties with the song lyrics of “Heartbroken” by Dipole, Jessie Murph & Polo G. Because of the intricacy of this picture with the lyrics, etc. I was blown away by how wonderful the quality ended up being after printing it. There is also another customized picture of Spongey that I printed with this printer and as you can see it turned out absolutely flawless. Lastly, this printer has blazing fast speeds when printing documents, pictures, etc. It prints within a matter of seconds! The setup was easy, the printer connected to my wifi right away and works better than words can express!

The HP 4201dw is perfect for small businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs
I've been using the HP Color LaserJet Pro 4201dw consistently for a little more than a week. My office is small, so I put the printer in my back sunroom and set it up to print on my network (although you can connect it directly to your computer via the included USB cord). The big push knob on the front and lcd screen make navigating menus on the printer itself intuitive. Set up was easy and straightforward (I use Apple products). I've printed from my laptop, phone, and tablet all around my house with ease.
The 4201dw has been invaluable for my newly formed LLC. It is larger than printers that I have used in the past, but so far the printer has easily been able to handle work with volume, detail, speed, and consistency. First, I needed to print and file a lot of papers regarding the legal and financial framework of my business, which were b&w and double-sided. Then I used it to print marketing materials in color on postcards and then on posters. The 4201dw made the printing process seamless. Though I received the 4201dw as a free sample in exchange for a a candid review, I can say without provocation or reservation that there is nothing I would change about this printer. If you are a small business owner or artist who is looking for a printer that can handle a variety of jobs all at high-quality, the 4201dw is a great option for you.

Absolutely phenomenal performance
Right out of the box this printer feels and looks nice. The HP LaserJet 4201dw has a nice sleek design with tasteful blue front panels. Set up was quite easy especially considering it’s a printer of all things. All you need to do is plug in the power cord and follow the prompts on the printer screen. I personally found it took less than ten minutes before I was able to start printing wirelessly. I typically print documents ranging from 20 to 50 pages several times a week, this will typically take several minutes and eats through printer ink. After having the printer for one week the toner levels haven’t even moved! Not to add my first 22 page document took about 45 seconds from the time I hit print to when the document was finished. I am a huge fan of this printer if you print daily or are a small business I can’t stress enough this printer has forever changed my view on ink printing and would absolutely recommend the LaserJet 4201dw.

Blazing fast and Color Accurate
Smart Color Laser printer made for the entrepreneur, small business, and Work from Home user.
If you're a user that is on the go and need to print color quickly and have a wireless connection, this printer will serve that purpose and more.
In terms of it being a smart device, you'll be able to print remotely even if your PC or phone isn't connected to the Wi-Fi connection at home. You'll be able to connect to this printer anywhere using the HP Smart app on your Android or IOS phone. Just open the app, pull up the file you need to print from your email, local storage, or cloud storage and send it to the printer.
This printer is fast and will be able to print both sides. You won’t have to worry about the image bleeding into the other side of the sheet either. The image that’s printed on the paper won’t rub off on your hands either which is a problem with regular inkjet printers.
When it comes to the print, text from documents is sharp and crisp. Images surprisingly is color accurate. The blacks are black and the whites are white. So if you want images in your reports, you won’t have an issue with colors as the images really pop.
The printer does lack a scanner and copier. However, this printer is smart. Just use your phone to capture images, documents and send them to your printer. The HP Smart software really replaces the need for a scanner as you can also save images as PDFs which looks like word documents. But what about faxing? The HP Smart app that is made for this printer also allows you to use mobile fax.
In the end, this printer fits the bill for a lot of my needs. The HP smart app really replaces the need for a scanner. Less is actually more and this printer is made with that mindset.

Great for a small business
I was sent a free sample of this object to review. I was impressed with the product as I was able to imagine that I had paid full price and expected results based on that consumer point of view. I was impressed by the speed and efficiency of both coley and black and white. I run a business, so the size was as expected as opposed to personal use in a home office.
I appreciated the toner and color being included, but wish they lasted longer.
Overall, this is very user-friendly and the warranty gives me confidence.

So Speedy!
This printer is amazing! It prints so quickly and with amazing color clarity. It's perfect for a small office setting. I use it to put together work presentations and I can't believe how fast it prints in color. I love that it's a laser printer with cartridges that last much longer than an inkjet. It's a true workhorse. So easy to use right out of the box. Easy to connect to WiFi and connected right away to my computer. I love the HP Smart app so I can print right from my phone and tablet in high quality color. I can't recommend it enough!

Solid color laser printer for home office use!
This is my second HP printer and my first HP color laser printer. My other printer is an HP color inkjet printer. This printer is a little on the heavier side, so it would take some time to take out of the box, but it comes ready to go. I was surprised to see that the toners were pre-installed, and all the printer needed was papers and the power connection. Even though the printer is heavy, it has a very small footprint, and once you set it, you’re pretty much done. I chose not to update the printer as I wanted to be able to use 3rd party toners, and I wish that HP didn’t focus too much on the toner subscription and forced users to do updates often. I understand the security aspect behind it, but this is just overkill. For home office and small business users, this printer would be the perfect option. For print jobs that need to be quick and long, this printer fares much better than its inkjet counterparts. I’m glad that I got this!

Worthy addition to my printer network
What a great printer: blazingly fast, great print quality, and is working perfectly for all devices on my network. It’ll be interesting to see how long the toner in the supplied cartridges lasts. A complete set of new ones will cost more than the original cost of the printer, but that’s always going to be the case, regardless of manufacturer.

Very nice commercial grade printer.
This printer has a very quick "first page out" and also includes many upper level features. HP is the place to purchase these printers from as they provide 2nd to none in their quick shipping and follow-up service! We have run HP printers for yours and just recently purchase another 3 new models.

good, but no AirPrint
Printer is great - was looking for colour, laser and wifi. 4 stars because I can't get the Apple Print to work...though it works great with the HP app from my phone.

Printer & Quality is great
We use this printer for colored labels. Mainly black on white gloss labels. We have had it for approximately one month and have not had any issues. We had to use adobe PDF X to get the quality we were looking for.

HP LaserJet Pro 4201
I really like this printer and the print quality. It is compact and very user friendly. I love how quickly it prints documents. At first I was a little hesitant about purchasing this as we had a functional one already but it really changed my mind as the prints are so clear and the colours are really pigmented. My only issue is that the default settings for the printer on my phone are used instead of my preferred settings but I don't have that issue on my laptop. Overall I would definitely recommend this printer to anyone for their personal use.

The print quality is outstanding. Both color and black-and-white prints have come out crisp and vibrant. The colors are rich and accurate, making it perfect for presentations, homework for my son, or any document where appearance matters. Even standard black-and-white documents look sharp and professional.

Fantastic Printer
This printer has been a huge upgrade to the printer we had before. The color printing is fast and incredibly vibrant. I started printing photographs from the printer and they are high quality and ready to frame. I really like that the ink lasts a really long time too. I have nothing but praise for this printer and can't recommend it enough!

Excellent Printer!
This replaces our 8 yr old HP Laserjet Color Printer. Setup was easy; all the devices from laptops to cell phones found the printer. Print quality is excellent and wake up time is reasonable. I was anxious to see if it’d drop off the network after hours of non- use. It doesn’t. I would recommend this printer for a small business, professional work from home or a friend who wants a quality printer.
