HP Color Laserjet Pro Multifunction M479fdw Wireless Laser Printer (W1A80A) (Renewed)

It works awesome for a small business

having the product go to sleep and having to manually wake it before it’ll print defeats a lot of the purpose of a network printer. i have to walk all the way across the house, power it up, walk all the way back, print from my other computer, then walk across the house a third time to get what i printed. the auto rotate can literally be messy at times also. i’m trying to print on a half-page label, and the printer decides on its own the print of the opposite side of the page that i specified. That causes the toner to smear all over the inside of the printer and it takes a lot to clean. also, large dark areas in graphics look sort of like they bubble up. but when it works, it works really good.

I’ve bought several of these printers for our various offices and they are the best! They are efficient and the quality of the print and scans are great. The ink can be pricey, but there are some quality knock offs at a much lower price if you want to go that route, but the ink lasts long enough, it’s really not much of an issue. I 100% recommend!! Take it from someone who has at least 9 of these printers!

When it is time to purchase ink you are paying for a new printer again ink is very expensive. The printer randomly shuts off or you have to shut off and restart for it to work. If you do replace ink it takes forever for the printer to reconize and finally get to print again. You are unable to scan everytime, this product is a money pit and should be against the law to sale at the price it is listed. Going back to my Canon it worked for me for 5 years this one hasn't even lasted a year. Very disappointed, I always heard bad things about HP now I believe every word spoken. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!! Would love to return and get my money back.

This is a very nice fit for any small business or home office. It looks very nice and works very well. Prints look very professional and well polished.

The only thing I disliked after receiving my printer was the power cord. Image Warehouse Company placed an Italy 3-pin power cord with the printer and my guess is as good as yours how in the world was I suppose to use that kind of power cord into my electrical wall outlet. So I had to go to Wal-Mart that same night and get an Universal Power Cord for computers and printers and “luckily” they had only “ONE” in stock. I do understand I ordered an refurbished printer but the company can at least do better with checking the power cords making sure you can use it in your electrical wall outlet, but other than that the printer works fine after purchasing the “RIGHT” power cord.

I've edited my review. I first try to use this printer with wifi. It failed miserably. Went offline constantly and I tried and tried to correct the problem to no avail. HP Support (if you can call it that) is woefully insufficient. I got the idea to then connect via ethernet to my router. VOILA! perfect! (required some furniture moving and some other small changes). The printer works fine and I finally like it. Again, do not buy if you think you can only use wifi.

I use this printer to print our personal business/farm records. I’m a technophobe and after it was installed for me I find it very easy to use!
