Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this printer for the simple fact that it actually had a toner cartridge not an inkjet it has the LaserJet which is so much faster and better quality print in my book but the only thing I don't like is the fact that the cartridge ran out after only about 200 or 300 pages that printed and not only that the supposed HP ink subscription that you're supposed to get with it for a free 3 months or 2 months does not apply I have been getting billing issue emails from HP instant ink saying that my billing hasn't gone through and I have not used my free months yet so that's a little bothersome for me and the fact that the toner cartridge unless they have more of a high yield printer cartridge you're not going to print very much from this printer. Also the little tray that holds the paper broke as well.

Very easy to set up on your phone and computer, great affordable printer

Its funny that this survey came today. Why you ask? Because Im taking the horrible thing back. This is another H.P. blunder. Why would i want a printer that only works when its online? Secondly I spent hours trying to get it connected. I veiw several tutorials to try and help. No luck. H.P. has a lot to be desired. I had stayed away from H.P. for years, this is why.

I have been using the HP Laser MFP M140W for several days, both as a printer and scanner and been giving it a lot of use both to print and scan as I get my tax files organized. The first thing you notice when you get the HP MFP M140W out of the box is how small it is - this is a laser printer with the footprint of an inkjet. As a compact laser printer for your home, it's great. Setup was easy on my WiFi 6 network. You use the (free) HP Smart app and it was connected to my WiFi in a few minutes. Despite what the app claims, you don't need to install software on your computer once the printer is on your WiFi network, both our Windows and MacOS devices discovered the HP MFP M140W and were able to print and scan without any need for HP software. Yay! As a printer, it prints at a claimed 21ppm, I didn't time it but printing was fast. One thing to know about the HP MFP M140W is that it doesn't have a true paper tray. You load paper by opening a flap at the front and the paper sits outside not in the printer. This is not a bad thing, just something you should know as the pictures would suggest it has internal paper storage but it does not (see picture). This is not necessarily bad just that I do prefer printers with paper trays that protect the paper. Why this all matters is if you don't make sure you have the printer output flap open, then as you print, paper can basically self feed back into the paper tray and you will print over your printouts in an infinite loop. One of the things I do like about the HP MFP M140W is that HP Instant Ink is optional! This is a big step forward for HP who use to force Instant Ink on everyone. If you are after a compact multifunction black and white laser printer, that's perfect for your home you can't go wrong. The scanner seems a little slow, there's no way for me to

TLDR: Paper loads in the open lower tray, but prints are fast and crisp. The printer comes with the power plug, toner and the unit itself. No other wires. Build is very clean, concise, to the point, no real bells or whistles. The LCD screen is a little dark, not what i'm used to but I suppose its a minor function most people don't use. The set up is very easy, just download the app and follow the instructions. Although I did have trouble connecting the wifi initially, despite the password being correct it wouldnt connect but on the 3rd attempt with the same password it connected. Once your printer is connected to your network, everything is very simple. My computers were able to see it , print to it. The app is nice, allows me to scan, print my photos, documents directly from my app. The dithering pattern/quality of photo is better than I expected for this build. The pdf/text/music notes I printed shows the printer manages edges very well on regular/normal/economic printer paper. I find it hard not to recommend this printer, I only took away a star because if the printer is going for simplicity, having that error on set up can be discouraging. Also some people may prefer not to have an app to operate / set up their printer and it's just very difficult to do that with only a small digital LCD screen. And of course loading the paper on the bottom isn't a big deal in most situations but it does have it's pro that it's easy to load, but the con that it's easy to accumulate dust or if you have a cat or child they may just swipe out the paper / dislodge paper.

The design of the HP LaserJet M140w is sleek and modern, fitting seamlessly into any workspace. It is the smallest all in one (printer/copier/scanner) laser printer on the market. It's compact enough to sit comfortably on a desk without taking up too much space, yet sturdy enough to withstand regular use. The build quality feels solid, and the control panel is intuitive and easy to navigate. One of the standout features of this printer is its exceptional print quality. Whether I'm printing text documents or graphics, the output is crisp, clear, and professional-looking every time. The text is sharp and legible, while images and graphics are reproduced with impressive detail and accuracy. I've also been impressed by the printer's ability to handle various paper types and sizes without sacrificing print quality. The HP LaserJet M140w boasts an impressive 21 pages per minute print speed, delivering pages quickly and efficiently. It's perfect for handling large print jobs, and I've found that it significantly reduces wait times compared to my previous printer. The wireless connectivity is so convenient, allowing me to print from my Mac, iPhone, or iPad with ease. Setting up the wireless connection was a breeze thanks to the intuitive setup process on the HP Smart app that I downloaded from the iOS App Store. This printer comes loaded with useful features that enhance productivity and convenience. The built-in Wi-Fi makes it easy to print from multiple devices without the need for cables, while the HP Smart app provides additional functionality such as scanning and printing from the cloud. In summary, the HP LaserJet M140w is an excellent printer that ticks all the boxes for home office or small business use. It combines high-quality printing with fast speeds, wireless connectivity, and a host of convenient features, making it a standout choice. I would highly recommend this printer to anyone in need of a reliable and efficient printing solution.

Our family really likes HP LaserJets–this is our 5th now (all still in use in various home-office, professional, and educational settings). We have gone through our share of some other brand lasers including a color MFP from a competitor that has served us faithfully for nearly 8 years and counting. But for good (or better) print quality, dependable hardware, and ultra-quick output on a budget, it’s hard to beat HP’s game. Unlike the parade of virtually identical boxy and bulky small to medium-duty HP MFPs we’ve auditioned and kept over the years, the HP M140w pranced onto the scene with a shockingly small footprint promising MFP-capabilities with print speeds and quality that can match is larger siblings, yet still clock in at a decidedly wallet-friendly price point. Did HP deliver on those promises…just about. PROs - Surprisingly fast–I clocked less than 5 seconds for the first page to come spilling out of the paper rollers with follow-on pages taking maybe 3-4 seconds to complete. - Text comes out appreciably sharp with smooth curves, well-defined corners, and clean-looking straight lines. - Grayscale graphics came out…good…with only minor signs of banding showing up in more complex images in areas with less pronounced and sudden changes in detail and contrast. I wouldn’t say image quality is board-room-ready, especially if you have a graphics-heavy document or slide deck to produce, but original graphics output is definitely better than draft quality and will likely suffice for very small businesses or casual home/educational use. - For a unit this small, I expected paper handling to be meager, but the M140w can accommodate 150 sheets in the bottom paper tray with a 100-page limit in the output tray. - 2.4Ghz WiFi and local USB afford direct-connect as well as WiFi-direct printing, AirPrint, and printing via HP Smart App (as well as accessing and adjusting most features remotely, as well as printing from anywhere with an Internet connection). - Copy speed is as admirable as regular printed output–you’ll spend more time lifting and closing the scanner lid and swapping out pages on the flatbed than you will waiting for the scan/copy action to complete. - Physical controls are simple; there is a very small LCD display with buttons for making/adjusting copies to include enlargements (to 400%), reductions (down to 25%), creating a single sided-printout of a 2-sided ID card, as well as adjusting brightness, turning the wireless radio on or off, as well as canceling the current print job. - The HP Smart app can be a useful hub of additional utilities that include printer and consumables status monitoring; adjusting scanner settings; creating shortcuts like emailing a scanned document or saving scanner output to GoogleDrive or Dropbo; creating “printables” for arts and crafts; HP’s Mobile Fax app that lets you use the M140w as a fax machine, printing documents and photos; OCR for scanned text; as well as access a host of more advanced admin settings and tweaks. CONS: - The M140w sacrifices an auto-document feeder and a duplexer to keep the form factor so small. The ADF isn’t necessarily a huge loss as a printer designed with spaces this small in mind probably isn’t going to be used for high-volume scanning jobs. But the printing duplexer is certainly missed even if its omission is understandable for keeping things so tiny.. - You can set up a host program (Word, PPT, etc.) for 2-sided printing and flip the pages manually, but there are two options for doing so and the manual’s reference photo is incorrect for one of them. When I selected 2-sided printing in MS Word, the fronts of all pages were printed out as expected, then a pop-up graphic on the screen indicated the paper orientation necessary to get the second sides printed properly (printed side down, bottom edge into the paper tray first). However, the manual specifies that 2-sided printing options should be set by using “Print on Both Sides Manually” in the host program, then load the paper on the second pass printed side down, top-edge in first. However, the picture in the manual describing the process depicts manual duplexing with printed side up, top-edge in first. After several tries, we determined that what is described in the manual is correct while the accompanying explanatory image is not. - In order to operate as a printer (as opposed to just sitting there looking adorably small on a shelf or tabletop), most of the slim, streamlined, ultra-smallness you may have found alluring must be thrown out the window. The paper tray sticks out of the bottom front of the printer by several inches–any paper preloaded in the tray extends out even further than the edge of the tray itself! There is no fold-down dust or protective cover for the paper tray so the likelihood that at least the top sheet of the paper stack will be collecting crud/dirt/debris is pretty high. - The physical buttons on the printer don’t allow you to do much more than make a photocopy with limited adjustments (copy quantity, brightness, zoom). The LCD display is quite small and not backlit so it’s hard to see in low-light conditions. The display is only 2-digits wide so reductions down to 25% read as 0.3 while 400% enlargements read as 4.0–I wasn’t sure if I was doing something wrong at first but there’s simply no room in a 2-digit display for a 3-digit percentage so HP opted to use decimals instead. Other functions or adjustments require the HP Smart app or access to the printer’s web client directly from a connected device. - Sigh…if you scan reviews for other HP printers, you may find that common complaints revolve around network and connectivity issues during setup using the HP Smart app. I’ve only successfully set up one of our five HP LaserJets using HP Smart as intended–sadly, this was not one of them. HP Smart would get part of the way through setup, then the printer would simply refuse to head to the Internet for its dial-home firmware check, network registration, and HP chip-enforcement updates to ensure you’re only using genuine HP toner cartridges. I will repeat the advice I’ve offered in my other LaserJet reviews: if you experience setup trouble, try letting HP Smart’s “Setup a New Printer” process time out, then re-open the app and select “Finish setup or add a printer that’s already set up” from the add-printer screen. You can also try finishing setup by directly connecting to the printer via IP address (assuming you know how to retrieve that information from your router). Worst-case scenario–go nuclear and use the USB 2.0 connection; you don’t NEED the printer connected to the Internet to use it (and most of its features) thanks to AirPrint and similar wireless-direct technologies. And you can leverage a number of reduced-overhead driver and software packages hosted on HP’s support site so you can forego HP Smart entirely if you want. - I wouldn’t have expected 6Ghz WiiFi at this price point, but with only a 2.4Ghz radio on board, some users who do not already have an extensive IoT network, or who have at least made the switch to higher-speed 5Ghz WiFi, may not have easy access to a strong and uncongested 2.4Ghz network signal. - Optical scanning resolution is limited to 600x600 dpi…that does match the printer’s output resolution (though copies only come through at 600x400 dpi), but given that you’re likely pressed for space if you’re entertaining an MFP of this size, you’ll have to find another scanning solution if you want really high-resolution, archival-quality image and picture scans. Many of my criticisms and observations above seem relatively minor in the grand scheme of things, especially based on the use cases this MFP was obviously designed to accommodate (like a cramped dorm room). Honestly, the only thing I REALLY wish HP could have cracked the code on was how to keep the footprint of the M140w similarly small even when loaded with paper. The design of the fold-out yet unprotected paper tray–one that then gets loaded with paper protruding even deeper into what I assume is likely to be very sparse and valuable desk/tabletop real estate–kind of defeats the purpose of getting a micro-sized laser printer in the first place. My guess is that many people may opt to keep the printer folded up in its ultra-svelte form factor and only drop a few pages at a time into the tray for a particular print job before folding the printer back up. If you can live with that, most of the other issues we experienced are probably forgivable, maybe even reasonable, given the decent performance and economical pricing of what is otherwise a legitimately tiny multi-function laser printer that ALMOST keeps pace with all the bigger kids on the block.

“The HP LaserJet M140w is a fantastic compact wireless printer for home or small office use. Its print quality is sharp and professional, and the wireless setup is quick and straightforward, easily connecting with multiple devices. Fast print speeds save time, and it handles high volumes effortlessly. The HP Smart app adds convenience, allowing mobile printing and scanning from anywhere. Highly recommended for anyone needing a reliable, space-saving printer with excellent performance and ease of use!”

This HP LaserJet M140W Wireless Black and White Laser Printer is exactly the same as the M140WE model except M140WE is a HP+ printer that comes with 6 months of Instant Ink and 2 years warranty. On the other hand, this M140W is not a HP+ printer and only comes with 1 year warranty. Hence lower price. This is a multifunction printer as it can print black & white forms and documents as well as scanning and copying documents. Note that this is the world's smallest multifunction laser printer in its class, it fits anywhere. Setting up the printer is very easy, just follow the included setup guide to prepare the printer before powering it up. Once powered up, install the hp smart app and use it to add the printer. During setup, hp smart android app found the printer quickly, you enter the wifi password and in no time the printer is ready and connected wirelessly to my wifi, however it only supports 2.4GHz wifi To print using computer, install the hp smart app from Microsoft Store and click add printer. The printer lets you print, copy and scan from computer as well as your phone using the HP Smart app. The print speed is fast, up to 21 black-and-white pages per minute single-sided. Copier Resolution up to 600 x 400 dot per inch (dpi) Printer Resolution up to 600 x 600 dot per inch The printer has a button for copying both sides of ID cards or small size document into same side of one sheet of paper, very easy to do. The printer comes with a starter ink toner cartridge. The print quality is excellent. The scanner is of a flat bed kind. It is a bit slow but very quiet. The scanned image is very good. Capable of scanning at 600dpi is more than enough. The printer does not need internet to print so it can still print even when internet is down. Despite its small size, the quality has not been compromised. Two things that I don't like, one is that this printer is intended to work only with toner cartridges with original HP chips and will block cartridges using non-HP chips. Periodic firmware updates will maintain the block, I wish I can use third party toner cartridges. Minus 2 stars. Secondly, this printer does not do automatic two-sided printing or duplex printing.

I was pleasantly surprised at how small this HP laser jet printer is. I initially wondered if it was just a regular old ink cartridge printer. Anywho, there is a couple of sacrifices when comparing this to a larger traditional laser printer. 1.) the cartridge claims that it will yield 950 prints before it needs to be swapped out. That is a lot of prints! But far less than you’ll get with a larger printer. That being said, keep it in mind if you plan on using this for a small business. I would say that this printer is better suited for a home, or for a student. The second sacrifice you make with this printer is that there is no place to store a large amount of paper. You kinda just gotta feed it a small stack of paper as you print. But like I said, it is perfect for a general home use printer. Aside from those two things, this printer is pretty awesome. It connects via WiFi or Ethernet. Setup was quick and easy with the free HP app. Once connected to your home internet, you can print from any device you have connect to your WiFi network via AirPrint / Google Cloud printing. It takes a few seconds for your print job to be transferred but once it does, the pages are printed almost instantly. The printer also has a built in scanner for copying pages. Very convenient! You can choose to log in and subscribe to HP’s services for ink refills with this printer but it isn’t necessary. I like to be in control of my finances, so I opt out and just buy ink when I deem it necessary. Would I recommend this printer? Yes, but keep the limitations i stated earlier in mind. Also, this printer only prints in black and white. It’s a very nice printer though, and quite affordable. It’s small size makes it great for use in any home.

The HP LaserJet M140W is a great little black and white printer. It is quite compact at the size of most Inkjet printers and it weighs about the same. Usually, LaserJet printers are bulky and heavy so this was a great surprise. It was easy to setup, but be sure to read the QuickStart guide as there is a step where you have to pull a plastic tab from the toner cartridge before you are able to print. This printer is compatible with both iOS and Android wireless printing as well as a plethora of other wireless printing options through the HP SMART printing app. It proved to be very convenient as I was able to print a signed document for a contractor that was collecting a contract while I wasn’t home, so I just went into the app and printed the document and he was able to retrieve it. The M140W also features the ability to copy and scan on the unit which is a great feature in such a small laser printer. The flap on the front of the printer must be down if you want to print because that is the paper tray so it isn’t as compact as may think, but it does fold up if you’d like when it’s not in use. The M140W wasn’t overly loud and when it warmed up it printed very quickly. It is only black and white, but for most of the things I print that isn’t an issue. The M140W also comes with 2 free months of “Ink” if you subscribe to their ink/toner service, after those 2 months they will charge you. Overall, I’m very happy with the HP LaserJet M140W as I was having some issues with my previous printer that kept getting clogged printer heads, it is nice to know that this won’t happen with the M140W.

I’m an HP person and this new printer hasn’t disappointed at all. I had it set up, connected to my WiFi and printing in less than 8 minutes. It’s small, sleek, and looks nice on my desk. Great price for a laser printer, scanner, and copier.

The HP LaserJet MFP M140W is essentially an all-in-one laser printer. It prints, scans, and copies. What more could you want. The printer literally comes is packed in a see-through plastic bag so that the user/buyer can easily extract the printer from its cardboard shipping box without doing it any harm. This printer comes with its electrical power cord and an introductory toner cartridge to start you off on your way. There is a pictorial insert that takes the user from A to Z on the set up of the printer. 1st off, be careful to look for all the removable orange tapes that have been applied to keep all the moveable parts in place, even the inside cavity where the toner cartridge is located. Also, the toner cartridge must have the orange plastic ends removed and the orange pull-cord so that ink can then be released. Most of all, it is incumbent that the buyer of all HP printer/scanner products download the HP Smart app for either their Android or Apple smartphone. On the home page of that app, there will be an option to "add a device" and that takes you through all the items to get this unit operational, even getting you hooked up to your Wi-Fi network and ready for printing. Be aware that you must use a 2.4 GHZ network for Wi-Fi set up, I have 2 networks-the 2.4 and 5.0. So, I have used all the printer functions, and so far I am satisfied with its abilities. I have printed, no problem. I have copied, no problem. I have scanned and that function, for me, took the most time to get setup and learn. I downloaded the HP Smart app on both my phone and desktop computer. Microsoft also has a scanning app that you can download for that function. I think that both will consistently work when initiating the scan function from either your phone or Desktop, and there are buttons on top of the printer that has these functions. The only reason that I did not give this printer 5 stars is because I really like an auto doc feeder, ADF, for ease of use and freedom from being tethered or near the machine vs. have to pick up the cover, place the item to be scanned on the flatbed, and then put the cover down. I am lazy, perhaps and an ADF takes care of a lot of that. In conclusion, I do recommend the purchase of this printer. First, it performs numerous functions in one unit, second, it has a small footprint and can be a "secondary" laser-type printer vs. either an inkjet type or larger laser type that requires more room. This printer does not have a high-volume capacity like the bigger ones that I use in my CPA practice during tax season for printing my long and complex returns, but for the smaller jobs it will suffice because it can print 21ppm using a toner cartridge. I do not know how many pages the introductory toner produces that came with this unit, but going forward it uses toner 141A that the box says has a 950-page range. Cartridges can be pricey, and I have not yet priced this one.

This is a pretty good basic printer. If you just need something that works this would be the one. The setup through the HP app is pretty simple. I did have trouble with connecting the printer to my google home mesh network, once I switched to another WiFi network the printer connected no problem. I’m sure something was wrong with my google mesh network. Once setup you have the option to sign up for HP’s monthly ink service. If you print a ton of stuff each month this might be fore you. As for me it’s a waste of money as we only print maybe 500-1000 pages a year. So the value for the monthly ink service isn’t there for me. Durning the setup I just skipped all of those things and ignored creating any type of account with HP. However you do need to setup an account to use the scanner to upload documents to your computer/table/phone. I have had other WiFi scanners/printers and never needed an account so not sure why HP makes this mandatory. The copier works very well and shows pretty good detail. The printing part is super quick! I printed out a picture that took up the whole paper. I took like two seconds for the printer to print it out. It’s nice that it’s very fast. Also the printer is pretty quiet when printing, some of our prior printers were pretty loud so it’s nice having something quiet. Overall this is a solid little printer that would work for home or even a small business. The size is pretty small and compact, so it can fit into most office/homes easily. If you need something simple and basic this is a nice machine. We had an older model HP laser printer that was very similar to this one, and that one lasted a very long time and is still working today. We gave it to a family member who needed it, but would have been still using it to this day.

Great laserjet printer for personal use, and small footprint, Great if you don't much space. Print, scan, and copy quality are great. It uses both USB and Wi-Fi. Setup was easy. I used USB first since my wireless was slow. Then my cellphone setup was quick since it was fast. Just follow instructions and your done. used Wi-Fi to prints from my cellphone. I was impressed on it's speed for its class, 20 page per minute. I recommend this for anyone who likes small mfp laserjet printer that don't have space for the same functionality but requires more room.

Easy set up. Prints fast. Printer doesn't take up much space.

To preface, I’ve only ever used inkjet printers before. My last printer, a DeskJet 3755, just wasn’t cutting it anymore. The cartridges would get clogged, it would take forever to print, and it was just a hassle. So I picked up this one. It’s fast, just a little bit bigger than my DeskJet, and while it’s only black and white I’m okay with that. I’m mostly printing documents anyhow so there’s no real reason for me to need to print in color. Now, that being said, is it worth it? I think so. For a college student this thing would be more than ideal but for a big business it probably wouldn’t be able to handle all the paper work you would need.

Great wireless printer! Set-up and connecting to newer Mac computer is easy, but I did time out at one part of it. However, the instructions manual tells one how to go back to set-up mode. Printing is clear and fast. I haven't tried connecting to other devices yet, but it appears to be easy to set it up/ compatible for iPhone and non-Apple devices as well. The size is also perfect for small spaces to tuck into a corner or place on a table

Very portable and functional for home use. Easy to get started

Wow! This new printer takes up less space than my previous printer, yet it has more features. I highly recommend it.
