Basically a multi-function printer (MFP) variation on the HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401dn ($399 direct, 4 stars), the HP LaserJet Pro 400 MFP M425dn ($499 direct) delivers essentially the same printing capability plus scanning, copying, and faxing.

High-quality text; Ethernet; Duplexer and 300-sheet capacity standard, 800-sheet maximum; Prints, scans, copies, and faxes

High running cost

Superb print quality and a dual-head scanner make this a good choice for monochrome desktop publishing, especially if you work with two-sided documents. Just don't expect a robust set of configuration options and user reports.

Excellent print quality; Relatively fast print speeds; Duplex ADF scanning; Color touch screen; Large paper-input capacity; EPrint and AirPrint support

Short on paper-output capacity; Limited configuration settings and user reports; No Wi-Fi connectivity

use the firmware update on site and it will make the ADF work like magic. Mine was blank, as soon as I did the firmware update, perfect print. So far an excellent printer. I have no clue what all the fuss was or is about since HP did the firmware update.

For new home based insurance agency, did a marathon online research on AOI printers (still have a 7 year old HP 7300 AIO for backup and color). Bought the m425dn 2 weeks ago. Was initially swayed by some negative reviews (mostly from late 2012 before firmware release), but decided to buy this unit...

duplex scanning; speed; 3 trays avail.; non-oem toner; monthly duty cycle

slightly noisy

We have had this fax machine for a little over 1 month and have replaced the toner and the faxes coming in are not clear. We are having problems sending faxes out (you can only do one at a time) and receiving (only one can come in at a time).

The monochrome printer uses the brilliant laser print technology to deliver absolutely sharp results, and comes with a handy USB 2.0 interface. It delivers terrific overall value-for-money.

Purchased for a small office with high print volumes. Pros: - The web interface (if you plug it into a network) is quite nice. It allows for remote management and setup from a computer, saving you from standing over the printer pecking at the small screen.

The machine is great. The only issue is figuring out the network path for scanning to a network folder. Works great on our network. Fast and easy. I have been using it for a couple of weeks and printed a lot for our home based business. The toner is still reading full.

Easy To Set Up; Easy To Use; Fast Print Time; Reliable

Scanning To Network Folde; Scannin To Network Setup

This printer works flawlessly under Linux. As usual HP support is exellent for all printer functions. Windoze works good as well Touch screen works well and is intuitive, This machine saves time and material compared to our previous HP products especially the scan to e-mail and 2 sided printing.

Does it all for an office printer

none so far

It was no mistake I bought this printer. Printing, copying and scanning are so smooth. I haven't tried faxing yet. Print quality is very good. Overall this machine makes my everyday task so easy. .
