The HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M553dn ($599) leaves off a few of the extras found in the HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M553x -the new high-end model in the company's 500 series of single-function color laser printers -but it comes in at a much more moderate price.

Fast; Above-average output quality across the board in testing; Excellent graphics; 650-sheet standard paper capacity; PCL and PostScript drivers

Display is a non-touch LCD

The printer appeared new and worked after I replaced one of the toners (read below)

I did a test page after configuring it and there were huge blue streaks on the test page and on the subsequent pages that I tested with; I replaced the cyan toner and the problem went away.

HP Enterprise m553 is awesome in every way! Does do CardStock Perfectly! One big Tray and one side tray. Doesn't curl pages, Extremely Fast. Easy to Connect Software.

Product is big and heavy, well-made. Plugged it in, connected to ethernet, added the printer to MacOS, and thought we were good to go. Quickly discovered that a print job would take 5 - 10 minutes to start and once it completed, the printer was no longer on the network.

This classy, feature-rich printer is fast and cheap to run, and won't be beaten for its extensive print-management tools.

Great cloud printing functionality; Excellent image quality

Inability to use cheaper alternative cartridges

You don't need to worry about somebody stealing the HP Color LaserJet 553X from your office – at 33.4kg unladen, this printer is going to stay wherever you put it even if you don't use the port for a Kensington-style lock.

I have owned my business for over 13 years and gone through a lot of printers. This is by far the best printer I have ever purchased. I have 4 trays on it, it prints beautifully and quickly, and it was a breeze to install. Highly recommend, and worth every penny.

M553dn compared to what we owned in past OKI Color Laser Tabloid size printer, HP much quieter and prints faster. Down side lack of wifi connection. Over all so far, so good.

I am bit shocked, that I can find the Printer for less - than the Maintenance Kit, that is required after about 30k of Pages. Therefore I ordered now a new Printer - instead of the Maintenance Kit. That's not very Green - but perhaps the Manufacturer needs to review their Spare Part Pricing then.

I've always been pleased with HP printers, however this one does great on black and white text, but the color mix on images is very poor. Returning this one ;(
