    Affordable Compact AIO High Perf Wireless Printer

    HP LaserJet MFP M234dwe is designed for use in small to medium home office that need print, copy and scan in monochrome laser print technology. This printer is an all-in-one monochrome printer in a super compact form factor that doesn’t take more desk space. Its small but powerful, measures around 14.5 x 11.8 x 9.5in and weighs 17 lbs. Printer is surprising faster with the two-sided printing and very suited for high volume printing. With kids doing online schooling, working from home with this printer for print requirements is very reliable. What’s in the box: Printer, Toner (approx. 700 pages), setup guide, power cord. No USB cables are included as this is a HP+ machine that requires an HP account, ongoing internet connection and use of HP toner cartridges to work. Setup is fairly simple and seamless with the HP smart app that guides each step by step to get connected wirelessly. Download the app from the Appstore or play store and follow the instructions for setup. You will need a mobile or tablet or computer for setup as the USB port at the back is not supported and recommended to setup using WIFI. On the top there is a small 1.27” LCD for display and has support to apple air print to print from apple devices. Works well with both windows and mac OS and doesn’t need any separate drivers to get started. Since this printer is connected to internet you can print it from anywhere. It can hold 150 sheets of paper in the paper tray and does not support automatic document feeder for scanning multiple documents at once. HP advertises print speed of 30ppm and 20000 pages monthly duty cycle but that is only with minimal text and largely depends on the content that is printed. Print quality is great with sharp texts and graphics. Only con is this model does not support generic toners and would need genuine original HP toner cartridges to work. HP+ you will get a free 6-month toner supply and 1-year extended warranty on top of manufacturers warranty, if you sign up for the service. If you print a lot then the service may be value add for toner replacement but there is no additional savings for subscription as HP+ tracks and bills based on number of pages printed. Pros: Affordable low price for all-in-one, compact footprint, high performance printing, smartphone integration, instant ink with HP+, free 6 months toner, 1-year extended warranty with HP+ Cons: Lack of automatic document feeder, no generic toner option, small paper tray, small LCD viewer. Bottom-line: Good affordable home or small office all-in-one Wi-Fi printer with the option of HP+.

    Small footprint for an affordable laser printer

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The HP LaserJet MFP M234dwe Wireless Black & White All-in-One Printer is very compact for a laser printer, smaller than some InkJet printers that also cost twice as much. Setup wise, I already had HP Smart software installed from having other HP printers connected. If you have never used it before, you can download the iOS or Android App that you can use to print and even scan from your phone. Your best bet is to use WiFi or Ethernet for connectivity, even though there is also a USB port, but that would limit your printing options from other devices. The print speed is quite good for such an inexpensive laser printer, up to 30 ppm at 600dpi which renders sharp, clear looking text and graphics. It also works well printing double-sided which will help you save paper. The copy and scanner functions work well, considerably slower at 600dpi. I found the quality to be more than acceptable at 300dpi, which is a lot faster. The little display on the top left side of the printer offers very minimal information, and makes it easy to use the printer as a copier, you can specify how many copies. This printer comes with a bonus 6 months free toner when you enroll in HP+ which is part of the growing line of HP printers with a toner or ink subscription program. It’s a great concept if you print a lot of pages per month (up to 1,500). It is a very convenient feature where the HP software will let them know when you’re running low on toner and will automatically ship you a genuine HP replacement toner. If you just use this at home and don’t print that much, it may not be your most cost effective option, since it requires genuine HP cartridges that will be charged to your credit card at discounted prices. Still a convenient way to get toner cartridges without lifting a finger. Additionally unlike most other printers in this price range, when you sign up for HP+ the warranty gets upgraded to two years which makes this printer an even greater value. If you don’t need to print in-color and are on a tight budget, I would recommend this HP laser printer over any InkJet printers.

    Very disappointed in that it disallows "Local Lan install". It is ludicrous and absurd to start an install for local operation and discover an online account must be created with HP. I returned that printer and acquired a different manufacture. So long HP. Never again!

    Crisp Printing, Laser with Scanner

    |

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Very solid laser printer, easy to install and easy to use. First laser printer I have had with a scanner. I can use this laser printer to copy a page of a document much faster than my inkjet printers can do. I feel it is very nice to have a monochrome laser printer and an inkjet both. When you are printing or just copying black/white material, it is more economical to use the laser printer. When I need color, then I use the inkjet. Laser printers have a toner cartridge and won’t dry out like inkjet cartridges might if not used enough. A laser printer comes into play a lot for me when just creating a quick memo with grocery list, a name, a picture/map, a street address etc. I’d rather make a word file and print it than jot it down by hand. Others may find this useful also. I hesitate sometimes to do this with an inkjet since I don’t want to ‘waste the ink’; but with the laser I have no such compunction. HP Smart software makes it a cinch to install the printer via smartphone or from a PC. The install process even finds your WiFi password but is secure in that it does require you to be near to push a button on the printer to be sure it is you. There is a unique feature of a status light. The color tells you several things including if you are properly connected, have a problem or if the unit is busy or updating. There are also several intuitive buttons to make a copy, cancel a job, etc. The interface is clean and nicely annotated. The unit prints very well, crisp and clear. The footprint is smaller than most inkjet printers and smaller than my older HP LaserJet, even though it has more features and has the scanner. I use printers a lot to avoid making written notes. I do recommend this well designed, high quality and moderately priced printer to use in conjunction with your inkjet to help with many tasks – wonderful.

    This is a very nice printer. Setup was a little wonky, I had to play with the buttons and power off once before I could get the setup working. I am guessing configuring from a PC would have been easier. The Android and IPhone apps are very well designed with maybe too many options. Luckily you can modify the tiles that show. Once you actually connects to the printer, configuration is simple and straight forward. The first firmware update appeared to hang but completed without issue. I just needed to restart the app. Connecting from Chrome OS is simple. It just finds the printer without issue. Windows required a install from the Microsoft Store. I prefer exe downloads but the app works fine. Print quality is fantastic. The print speed is great. It is just as you would expect from a laser printer. Double sided printing works very well. The scanner is fast and creates nice images. The paper tray is a odd design. It works but I prefer a closed tray. Overall this is a printer worthy of the HP name.

    I love printers and this one is my new favorite. I love the simplicity and the speed of this printer. Probably one of the quickest printers I have ever used in my professional and home experiences. This is also the first small laser jet printer I ever had that actually has a scanner. Setup was quick and easy as I already had the HP Smart program installed. Install was probably less than 3 minutes. I loaded up the paper, clicked print and the paper came flying out with my test page. I printed a few other items from my phone and they quickly came out with little noise. The scanner is a nice feature. Since the compact form (from a typical inkjet printer) the scanner glass is smaller and fits a regular letter size paper or up to A4 size. You will not be able to scan legal appropriately. Which is fine as most papers are letter size but if you need to scan legal forms often I would look else where. The scanner quickly loads to my pc on 300 dpi. If you can the scanner to 600 dpi it is super slow and I would not recommend scanning with this device if you need that quality image and speed. I waited a good minute or so scanning at 600 dpi on a letter document. 300 dpi is still a good scan quality for documents. The printer also has a photo id copy and regular copy button which works great. Click one of the copy buttons once, select the number of copies you need with the - or + button and click the green arrow and it copies and prints very quickly. The photo id copy is awesome because it will scan the front of an ID then you flip your id (you don't have to move it to another location) click the green arrow and it will scan and print both sides of an idea at once saving time and paper. Really cool.

    This is a great small footprint printer for and office/business environment. I would not recommend it for home personal use - much better product for that. As for as the print quality it very good and cost effective for a laser print option. I’ve printed a number of pages and still have a lot more to go before replacing the toner. It comes with the HP+ for 6 months, I personally did not active because just don’t print enough for it to be worth it but if you in a office that does a lot of printing I’d give it a try. As for the scanner/copier it doesn’t the job not going to blow you away with speed or high resolution crispness but for most everyday need to will meet the requirement. Setup was a breeze with the HP app that seem to con with all the print line now so if you’ve done it once it the same thing, simple and easy to follow. I was able to get it connect to laptops and mobile device pretty quick to start printing. Overall there are a few thing in the scan that would take it to a 5 start rating however for the price vs features I think it’s gone to be hard to beat.

    Absolute junk, no support for windows 11, it’s the hardest printer to get connected and to stay connected. It wants you to use wireless, instead of a cord. The HP software is very buggy. I using a brand new computer with this also. It’s performance is slow and the display is cheap and small

      Hi there.

      I’m sorry to hear that your printer has performed so poorly. It’s easy to understand why a difficult setup process, problematic software and connectivity issues would be tremendously frustrating. I want to help you resolve this situation, so I’ll provide a resource and some information aimed at accomplishing that goal.

      I can’t fell from your review what’s causing these issues or whether they’re related to one another. I recommend that you contact us directly so we can help you assess the situation and find the best course of action. HP+ printers such as yours come with exclusive concierge support. To call and reach live HP+ experts, visit the following URL and enter your HP+ serial number:
      - hp.com/plus-help

      I'll also mention that HP printers have a one-year warranty from their purchase date that covers hardware as well as ink supplies – and that warranty extends to two years with an HP+ account – so if it comes to that, you might consider making use of it. You can verify the warranty using the following link:
