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.

If you think colour laser printing has to be expensive, take a look at HP's newest range of LaserJets. The Color LaserJet Enterprise M553dn uses completely redesigned toner cartridges that incorporate the company's new JetIntelligence technology, designed to reduce running costs to an all-time low,...

A lot has been written about the wisdom, or otherwise, of HP's planned corporate split , putting enterprise hardware and services together under one brand while creating a separate company for PCs and printers.

Excellent print quality at up to 40ppm; Up to 33% higher page yield per cartridge; Lower operating temperatures and reduced power requirements; Internal cartridge seals for clean maintenance

High up-front cost of consumable replenishment; No Bluetooth connectivity

"Enterprise," of course, means busy, or relatively high-volume-a whole lot of printing going on. When I wrote this, the M553dn was on sale for $200 off, or $599.99. In either case, a single-function printer would need to be special in one way or another to justify either price, but of course it's a...

The HP LaserJet Enterprise M553x provides good speed and solid output quality in a color laser built for high-volume printing but comes at a higher price tag

Excellent print quality

Expensive

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

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

I used the literature and CD that came with the product and the printer was up and running in a matter of minutes. The iphone and ipad print to it wirelessly and the office computers print though the network connection.

Pricey toner undermines this otherwise excellent single-function LaserJet, which is competitively fast and prints well (surprisingly so, with photos).

Fast print speed; Excellent print quality; especially with small fonts; Multiple expansion options; Stylish and well-built

A bit pricey; Full set of four high-yield cartridges is more than $1,000; Wi-Fi module costs extra; Many mobile options unavailable without Wi-Fi upgrade; Cost per page too high

Print very well !!
