Rated 4 out of 5 by Nancy LC from Good replacement for former, long-lasting HP printer This is a replacement for a 10 year old (!) LaserJet Pro MFP 477fdw that finally gave up the ghost. I really like the speed and the option for auto two-sided printing. It was easy to set up and seems reliable. The plastic on the manual feeder and paper drawer is cheaper, I hope it lasts. For the most part I am very happy. You must use HP-chipped toner cartridges which means it is much more expensive to run. But that seems to be the way of the world. I got a very good price during an HP sale. The only issue was the first one I ordered never arrived. So, I was printerless for too long. After contacting HP customer service via chat a view times, they finally did get one expedited out to me.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Blair H. from Graduate Degree Required to Set Up for Use??? I hired a computer geek (who services my husband's computers at his business) to unpack and install my new printer. He couldn't figure out how to set it up being hard wired to my laptop, so it is set up to be wireless. I also bought the 550 sheet feeder tray, so my 8.5" x 11" paper is in that and I have legal in tray 2. This printer is for home use, and so far it is working ok, but there have been glitches when I have tried to change the paper size in any of the trays. I got around the glitch by pulling all the drawers out and making sure Tray 1 had the paper I wanted to use fed into it. The User guide is 173 pages long and many times refers you to the HP website, so that isn't very helpful. Also, I can't find a phone number anywhere to call HP and speak to a human being for help. The printer is working okay, but I feel like I never would have gotten it working if I hadn't hired someone to help me set it up.

Rated 1 out of 5 by JohnJ2456 from 2 Months No Power Cord I received my printer without a power cord and called to let them know the same day. Three times I was asked to check the box, instead of being helpful. Once I finished the request, I was told it would be sent out right away with 2-day shipping. It has been two months since that request and just recently got a message that they were sending it. I of course had already bought a cord and spent more money in HP’s failure to have good customer service. Never again!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from A invaluable tool for paper lovers The multifunction printer 4301 timely faithfully prints on paper copies that precisely reproduce the images of the documents you see on your computer's monitor. The scanner function digitizes images on paper to create document files in your computer whose image on your monitor looks just like the piece of paper in your hand.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Dovehaven from Terrible customer service and defective product I bought a reconditioned color, laser printer in order to avoid the continued dance of ink jet printer cartridges. The printer did not work from the get-go. Many hours on the phone with HP reps trying to fix the problem, until they concluded that they had to send a technician out and replace the paper feeder. Three tries and finally, they found a technician, who came on the day of my move. I did not have a chance to try the printer until I moved and had internet connected ( as of today). Unsurprisingly, I am unable to hook the printer up to my Wi-Fi. Again the misery of a call to HP, 25 minute wait, a rude and unintelligible agent who hung up on me after about a minute. Call back wait for one hour on the phone, only to hear a message that they were unavailable and to call back. These issues have had a detrimental effect on my life and are not merely numerous and very meaningless apologies for “inconveniences”. Losing many hours of my time Is a harm to me—not an inconvenience. Further, I still don’t have a printer I can use, right at the time in my life when I have most needed it. HP used to be a great company with excellent customer service. Now it is among the worst.

Rated 1 out of 5 by HUAIDAN from NOT WHAT I ORDERED THIS COMPANY HAS GONE DOWNHILL!! I ORDERED A "NEW" PRINTER AND WHEN IT ARRIVED, THE BOX SHOWED REFURBISHED. I CALLED AND THE PEOPLE WERE UNPROFESSIONAL AND INEPT. I RETURNED THE ITEM THE NEXT DAY, AFTER HAVING THEM ORDER A "NEW" PRINTER REPLACEMENT. THEY INDICATED THEY WOULD EXPEDITE THE NEW ONE. THEN A FEW DAYS LATER WHEN I HEARD NOTHING FROM THEM, I FOUND OUT THEY WOULD ONLY SHIP THE NEW ONE WHEN THE OLD ONE WAS RECIEVED AND INSPECTED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS SO UPSET, I CANCELED THE REPLACEMENT AND ASKED FOR A FULL REFUND, WHICH WOULD ONLY OCCUR AFTER 2 WEEKS. I SIMPLY CALLED MY CC COMPANY AND DISPUTED THE CHARGE. HP USED TO BE A GREAT COMPANY WITH GREAT PRODUCT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY HAVE JOINED THE RANKS OF POORLY RUN AND POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! I WILL NOT BUY FROM THEM AGAIN

Rated 4 out of 5 by Yetisaurus from Great printer, okay software The printer itself is great. It's much faster than my previous HP color laser all in one, which was about 10 years old and getting crotchety. I don't have a ton of print volume, but the times I need it, I need it to be relatively quick and reliable. The scanner also seems to work well, and getting it set up to send from my gmail account (with a temporary password) worked relatively smoothly. The software could use some finessing. It's nice that you can log in from a computer using the IP address and that you can change a lot of the settings there, but there are some minor annoyances and things that aren't super intuitive. For example, setting up the default scan to email shortcuts is great, but it would be even better if I could select the order that I want them to show up. Instead, I had to go in and monkey around with editing the presets to have the most recently modified ones show up first. Also, I find it REALLY annoying that some of the features (the webscan/EWS stuff) only work if you click the box allowing HP to monitor for and require genuine HP cartridges only. Listen, HP, if you guys started making cartridges that were about half the price of what you're currently selling them for, I'd be all over it, and you guys would still make a decent profit. But the crazy prices you're charging mean that of course people are going to look for aftermarket suppliers. I don't want to be held hostage by HP on toner pricing, so I skipped the additional features.

Rated 4 out of 5 by TorresFam from All around home or office printer! My wife and I have a business so we need to have a good quality printer to print documents and other items. My kids are also big printer users and they love this printer. The printer setup is easy and i life how fast it prints! Its prints super clear and the colors are vibrant and seem to last long. The dual paper trays are a nice touch and i love it has an automatic feeder. The touch screen works easily and fast and is super easy to read and maneuver. It connects easily to your devices and the HP app although it does have to be hardwired to the router! I like having 1 printer at least hardwired since it does get the job quicker and prints faster but no WIFI on this printer! This has become an all around printer for our home and is great for school projects, home office and much more. It’s an all around printer, copy scan, and fax and I haven’t had any issues with using any function.

Rated 4 out of 5 by USA1 from Printer works well—eventually I had trouble setting up this printer but HP helped me through the process. The only issue I have is that the printer that has ONE fully loaded paper tray keeps replying to the computer that it is “out of paper.” I don’t know how to correct this problem —VERY frustrating. Eventually I get I get the printer to print but it takes a long time to get to that point. Once the printer produces a page, all other print tasks get printed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bonnie H from One “Happy Camper” owning and operating this printer! This printer replaces a very similar printer (Laser Jet Pro 477) so the learning curve has been shortened and there are no surprises. First, this printer/scanner/copier/Fax was easy to install. I did everything myself except lift the printer from the packing box to my desk. Thank you for making that task so simple! Learning to operate this machine was also very simple. As already mentioned, I used a similar HP printer for many years. My comments about the functioning of this printer are all positive. The print quality is excellent! The machine operates with minimal noise. The sheet feed has not created problems so far. One purely personal reaction to this printer is my dislike for the “modern” design of the cabinet.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Zaqzaq from Not WiFi I had a very difficult time setting the printer up until I discovered it is not WiFi, it is a networked printer. Once I ran an Ethernet cable to the printer it was smooth sailing from there. It prints good quality, crisp, clear documents in record time! I am loving the duplex and scan features . Overall, it’s a good printer that would be great if it was WiFi.

Windows printer test fine however printer would not print double sided nor scan double sided. Back side on each process was black page.

It’s an expensive printer and process.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Peter Bergh from Two major problems The two problems are 1) the HP does not enclose printed documentation on where one can download the software for the computer using the printer and 2) The printer is far too sensitive to paper-curling caused by high humidity (when printing double-sided, the paper gets stuck on the second pass of the page.)

Rated 5 out of 5 by jziegler1 from Awesome... except USB cable is not include The initial setup of the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn was a nightmare at first, I only had a networking cable connected. Neither my computer nor network would recognize it. Then I found an old USB cable… With the USB connected to a computer and the network cable plugged into the wireless router, It was up and running within 2 mins. All drivers and firmware updated automatically. The HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn prints and scans both quickly and beautifully. Anything connected to the wireless/network has access to it, cellphones, laptops, tablets, computers… The HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn is robust in size so you are going to need to give it its own space but you get a lot in that package. It’s the new gem of our home office. I would highly recommend. I did receive this HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn at a discount for my fair and honest review, and it is amazing!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Syuliant from Fast performance and excellent output I have been using this printer for few months and I can tell with great certainty that this printer print super fast and very easy to use. The color reproduction is superb with great detail and high accuracy. I include a demo video when printing an artwork of my daughter. Took about 35 seconds to complete from warmup to finish which is considerably fast when taking into account the 30 seconds warmup time. This printer capable to scan, fax, scan to email, and much more. Toner can be quite expensive but you might not need to replace anytime soon for low to average usage. Highly recommended.

I have not had the opportunity to really use it, but I am happy it is not made of cheap material. I can tell by the weight of it that I will be able to use it for a long time. I have a lot of printing to do for the upcoming school year. I already have co-workers who are impressed with it and is ready to order theirs. Get yours before it's too late because teachers are always jumping on a good deal. Stay tune... I will come back and post a picture of it in my classroom. I have finally opened the box. Not only was it easy to put together, it didn't take me all day to do it. The real challenge was how fast it would print. It didn't disappoint. I was fast and the color was beautiful. The best reward was finding out that I could print line paper without using my computer or copying it from a printed paper. This is an A+ in my book! I can't wait to work on bigger projects. All I need now is a laminator.

The scanner is the best I have ever had in our home office. I was surprised at how well it printed photos on standard paper. It put my photo printer to shame when it came to printing on standard paper. CONS: Even though it is connected to our network, it doesn't 'wake up' all the time. I have to manually turn on the printer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn I recently got my hands on the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn, and here’s my take on it. What I Loved: * Blazing Fast: This printer is seriously quick. It churns out pages at an impressive speed, whether it’s plain text or complex graphics. If you need a printer that keeps up with a fast-paced environment, this one’s a winner. * Stunning Print Quality: The clarity of the prints is top-notch. Text is sharp, and colors are vibrant and true. From business documents to colorful presentations, everything looks crisp and professional. What I Didn’t Love: * No Wi-Fi: The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity is a real letdown. In an age where wireless convenience is key, having to rely on a wired connection feels outdated and cumbersome. It’s a significant drawback for those who prefer a cable-free setup. In summary, the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn excels in speed and print quality, making it a strong contender for high-demand printing tasks. However, the missing Wi-Fi feature could be a dealbreaker for those who value wireless convenience.
