Today I unbox and test out the HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M281fdw. This laser printer is Wi-Fi enabled. You can also print from the HP Smart app on your phone, as well as AirPrint and Google Cloud Print.
➡ Get it on Amazon: geni.us/U5pB
This HP printer is all-in-one, so you can print, scan, copy and fax all in the same place. Considering it has a flatbed and document feed tray scanner, it still remains fairly compact. All paper is kept inside the large paper tray at the front, as well as the toners.

Thanks for the review. I myself am looking at a cheaper model, HP M180n (could not find a cheaper alternative from other brands). I'm curious about this dreadful message on HPs website for their M180n and M281fdw: "Dynamic security enabled printer. Only intended to be used with cartridges using an HP original chip. Cartridges using a non-HP chip may not work, and those that work today may not work in the future." Does it really mean that I won't be able to use third party cartridges or refills for M180n / M281fdw? It might mean HP will suck my money out, so their lower printer price is just a gimmick. Also, how does this printer tolerate missing color cartridges? Can I still print black&white when I have empty or missing color cartridges?

how does m281 differs from m277 and m477? how possible can I photocopy a laminated paper on the above mentioned printers?
@TechBaffle

I can't find m277 (maybe it's discontinued) The m477 has a larger screen if that's important, otherwise I don't notice much difference. You can scan laminated documents on the flatbed scanner. The paper feed tray is paper-only.

The colours look much more vivid than my inkjet. I find I just use Standard print quality as it looks great - although you can select other options. Do bear in mind that inkjets work better with photo paper. Sometimes they're too thick for it.

I have this printer and like it very much EXCEPT after a firmware update that stopped me from using 3rd party toner refills. I'm on Tech support with HP and we'll see if they help me to downgrade my firmware or not. If you have this printer, buyer be ware. Turn auto-updates OFF so you don't get a bricked printer or spend 3 hours trying to downgrade your firmware.

Thanks for the upload and I can appreciate your jubilation upon receiving your new "best" printer. I lclicked your link to the M281FDW which took me to Amazon with an unrated product description priced at $591. I wanted to read user reviews from people who had purchased this printer so I searched Amazon for another listing of the same printer and found it for $408 and rated by over 500 people. 26% of those people gave it one-star, that's 1 out of 4 unhappy buyers. Wow! If you continue to use this printer, a follow-up review after a month or two would be really useful information, i.e, does the toner cartridge shut down the printer or requuire replacement; when "low''; is the wifi connection reliable; any paper jams, any software compatibility issues, or any other real-time user experience? If it works really well for you after a bit of time, I'd really like to know.
@TechBaffle
@TechBaffle 4 года назад
Thanks for letting me know about the link. I try and update with the best price but Amazon changes fast. In terms of the printer, I use it for myself and my business so I use it a lot. I haven't had problems with software or toners. The only time I had a paper jam was when I was trying to use 6x4 photo paper, but it was easy enough to remove. Normal paper and A4 photo paper works well for me. I should probably do a follow up video on it!
@TechBaffle
@TechBaffle 4 года назад
The wifi is pretty bad where the printer is, although I've not had problems with it losing connection. When the toner is low it warns you but doesn't stop printing. When it's runs out it does.
@TechBaffle
@TechBaffle 4 года назад

I have read comments in hp help forums , and one person says that entering through their ipaddress , they were able to lighten picture print settings somehow So I figure that may help to darken normal black lettering quality ?

HP "updated" the firmware in my printer so that now all generic ink cartridges won't work, which is supposed to be illegal, yet they do it anyway. I tried calling tech support, but they claim that they cannot reset my firmware to what it was when I bought the product and it worked. I hope they enjoy the temporary increase in revenue as I am now forced to by "HP Ink", but I swear to God that I will never buy another HP product for the rest of my life!
