HP LaserJet MFP M234dwe Printer Review

The HP LaserJet MFP M234dwe ($179.99) is an entry-level all-in-one (AIO) monochrome printer designed for use in small to medium-size offices that need scan, copy, and fax functions but don't need color printing. The M234dwe faces stiff competition from other small lasers—including two Editors' Choice winners, the HP Neverstop Laser MFP 1202w and the Canon ImageClass MF269dw—and a few inkjet laser alternatives, such as Epson’s WorkForce ST-M3000 Monochrome MFP Supertank Printer (also a PCMag favorite). Aside from low paper capacity and the lack of an automatic document feeder (ADF), there's little to dislike about the M234dwe, which is reasonably priced for low- to medium-volume monochrome printing.Small and Powerful The M234dwe measures 12.5 by 17.2 by 15.6 inches (HWD) and weighs 25.7 pounds. Among its many competitors, these numbers are about average. The HP MFP 1202w mentioned above, for instance, is an inch or so smaller in all directions and weighs a few pounds less. Brother'...

HP MFP M234DWE Laser Printer 6GW99E review

This HP monochrome multi-function LaserJet delivers high image quality and good performance on the basics. However, not all performance is top-shelf, and the online HP Plus configuration won't suit all users. As a monochrome laser printer, the LaserJet M234dwe delivers the goods.

Fast text printing, Quick duplex printing of text, Copying is faster than average, Six months of toner included

Text-and-graphics PDF printing is slow, Toner costs are slightly above average, Small 1.27-inch monochrome LCD, Sloppy edge detection in scanning software, Cloud-focused functionality won't suit all users

Good printer; invasive and spammy software

Good printer BUT the software that goes with it asks for all sorts of access that I don't want to give. And the account you are forced to sign up to does its best to force you into on-going purchases. They also kept sending me spam emails despite unsubscribing. Wouldn't go with HP again for this very reason.

A Great Price for A Great Product

Excellent product

Great printer. Setup software not so great.

HP+ is a gimmick The printer is great
