Customer Ratings & Reviews

Unboxing the printer was standard. I needed to lift the printer out in the Styrofoam packaging to get it out of the box. Then your typical setup of removing plastic tape that held certain components during shipping. The only issue I had was the sticker on the front of the printer advertising 2 free months of ink with their monthly service. It took me 25 minutes to fully take it off as it was just coming off in little pieces. After turning it on I downloaded the HP Smart App. I had an account already. I just clicked add printer and this printer showed up. Then it prompted me for my wireless password and then the printer was connected. I printed through the mobile app and it went fast and the page was crisp and dark since it is a laser printer over ink based. I went to scan, and this is where having no display panel was odd. I had to use the HP app as my display panel to scan. It seemed like a lot of steps to scan 5 pages to my email address. I tested this again for work purposes the next day and when scanning 4 pages in color it failed to upload. Ultimately, I had to use the app to scan to my phone vs the printer to get it to go thru. There is a small display for copies, but it is limited to qty and double sided. While on that. The printer was fast printing double sided copies. This printer was one of the fastest home printers I have had in years. Shame it is only black and white and not color. There are multiple plans for the monthly printing subscription through HP and really the only way to go. You can skip this and purchase the toner cartridge, but the cost is $50 for 1100 pages so depends on how much you print per month. I just really miss the display panel as to scan it requires my phone and that is too much of a hassle.

Yes it can print. Very low quality material, feels cheap.

I have been using the HP Laser Jet M234sdw for about a week and half now and I do have to say I love it. Starting with setup: The setup was very easy following the directions. It didnt take long for me to get it out the box, read directions, and get it up and running. I love that this is wireless. It took seconds to get it connected to my wireless internet. I had no troubles at all with connectivity. We are a homeschooled family so daily i am constantly printing tons of worksheets for the kids to complete. What i love most about this printer is that it is a double sided printer that prints extremely fast. Having a double sided printer allows me to save not only money but paper as well as not having a cluster of papers because i can double side print. I love that i can automatically scan and print with ease in an effective manner and timely manner. With the app I can quickly use dropbox and google drive to print any saved worksheets or documents that i have. Overall this printer has been great for printing worksheets for the kids, documents for my small buisness, and scanning the kids schoolwork to save. Setup is a breeze, it is quick and efficient.

Not happy at all with this item, will not stay connected to the WiFi, maybe just got a lemon

Setting up the LaserJet M234sdw was a breeze. The printer comes with clear instructions, and the wireless setup through the HP Smart App was a seamless process. It quickly connected to my Wi-Fi network, and I was able to start printing from my computer and mobile devices in no time. This printer lives up to the "LaserJet" name. It prints lightning-fast and delivers crisp, clear black-and-white documents. I've printed both text-heavy documents and graphics, and the quality has been consistently outstanding. The wireless feature is so convenient. I can print from my mac, iphone, or ipad without needing to plug in or switch devices. The HP Smart app makes it easy to print from anywhere in my home. Additionally, it supports mobile printing services like Apple AirPrint and Google Cloud Print, which is very convenient. However, this convenience comes at a slight cost in that the controls on the printer itself are very limited. Scanning must be done completely through the HP Smart App. I would have preferred there be buttons on the printer itself to quickly scan a document. The printer has a 150-sheet input tray. I wish this could have been a bit larger, around 250 sheets to save time between putting more paper into the tray. In my short time using this printer, I haven't encountered any paper jams or printing issues. It's been incredibly reliable, even during long print jobs. The build quality feels solid, and it runs quietly, which is a big plus for a home office setup. One thing I appreciate about the LaserJet M234sdw is its eco-friendly features. It comes with an automatic power-off setting to save energy, and it's Energy Star certified, reducing its environmental impact. This is a great addition for those who are environmentally conscious. The HP LaserJet M234sdw Wireless Black-and-White Laser Printer has quickly become an essential part of my home office setup. Its reliability, speed, and wireless capabilities make it a top choice for anyone in need of high-quality black-and-white laser printing. Whether you're a student, a professional, or a small business owner, this printer is an excellent investment that will not disappoint. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient laser printer.

This printer has pretty much everything you need for a home office black and white laser. Fairly quick to setup. In all my years of dealing with printers, I don't think I've had an easier printer setup experience. Aside from starting the WPS setup on my router, I barely had to do anything. Historically with me, I usually ran into some issue with wifi printers not being setup properly initially. Once connected to my home wifi all my computers, phone and tablet were able to find it and begin printing to it without issues. Printing is fast, fairly quiet and it duplexes! Print quality for text is clean and sharp. Printing sending a print job from my cell phone is quick and it is usually already waiting for me in the output tray once I go upstairs to my home office. A replacement HP high yield toner will run about $85 at the time of this review. It's nice that I wasn't required to install or login/create an account to print, however an account does need to be created to use the scanner. Scanning speeds aren't going to beat out any dedicated document scanners, but I do appreciate having a flatbed scanner to be able to scan things that aren't completely flat or won't feed through this ADF. Scans are good quality. Scanning from the M234 FAR exceeds any cell phone scanning app. The M234 footprint is not much larger than the basic wifi duplexes Samsung printer it replaces. I like that I can reload the paper tray without having to remove the tray, but I would have like to seen a larger tray capacity. I put the M234 on a pedestal with a slot for the rest of the ream of paper. A printer isn't usually an item you care about until you need to print things and it won't work. Setup is easy, it works as it should, it prints well (on both sides if that's what you need) and it can scan your documents and receipts. The requirement to create an HP account and the smallish paper tray are my only major cons, but I already had an account and I also already had a printer pedestal with a place for extra paper so they were essentially non-issues for me. I would easily be able to recommend this printer to anyone looking for one.

One thing I have come to have discovered over the past few years is that HP makes some of the best printers. Hands down. This laserjet printer is yet the latest example of the excellence that I have come to expect from HP. This is the third HP laserjet I've had and while it may be relatively inexpensive it does not lack in speed, quality, and features. Print quality is well above average and the print speed is impressively fast. Like wicked fast. Scans, likewise, are equally impressive. Add to those two things that the only cable really needed is the power cable then you have a handy package print/scan/copy solution for your home office. Especially if space is at a premium. Physically this printer is smaller than most other laserjets in this price range. That's a win in my book. To print or scan you'll need to download an app from HP to your home computer (Windows or Mac), iPhone, iPad, or Android. Once installed it's simple matter of signing in to your HP account and pairing the printer. It's easy and painless. Once paired you can print or scan from that device. The one downside, and I can get past it myself due to the excellent quality of the printer, is that you must be signed in to print or scan. Over all this is another winner from HP.

Not that great.but is workable.May be better for some one who has less productivity than I do.

This is a very good performer with excellent and crisp output- the case is pretty flimsy, however, especially the paper tray and output flap. Setting it up was painful on two of three laptops with multiple attempts to load and reload the hp software, but I did manage finally. I did not realize it doesn’t automatically duplex- it prints on both sides, but copying on both is entirely manual, which is disappointing. HP’s website is almost useless in trying to determine whether a printer has such features, which is very frustrating. For the price and the excellent print quality, this is a good choice- but be ready for some headaches regarding setup and expect to be unimpressed with the flimsy paper tray. HP used to a much better job on case quality. Still, for the money, they got the print quality right. After a long string of HP inkjets starting in the early 90s, this is my first laser. I’m an infrequent printer and suffered many expensive dried up cartridges that had barely been used, so I hope laser is a better choice. Output is quick and warmup minimal, which is a vast improvement on the endless cleaning and self-servicing HP inkjets go through if you haven’t used them in a month. Once printing starts it’s surprisingly quick.

HP LaserJet M234sdw is a compact wireless black and white laser printer with a small footprint. The setup is quite easy and quick. Being a multifunction printer, it can print, scan and copy. The instructions included are easy to follow and get you going within minutes. The printer has an automatic document feeder and supports double sided printing. The flatbed scanner is handy to scan all kinds of documents. There is a small LCD display on the printer that indicates Wi-Fi connection status. The display also has a counter of number of copies. Additional buttons provide you with minimal controls of the printer. The tray can hold up to 150 sheets. Download HP Smart app to setup the printer, use remote printing or monitor your ink levels. If you have been using HP printers, you might be familiar with the app and its features. You can print wirelessly from any device on the network as well as via the USB cable, which you will need to purchase separately. The printer also supports Ethernet connection for a network printer setting. The included toner cartridge is supposed to last around 700 pages. But this printer does support HP Instant Ink subscription where you can have HP send you a new toner when the printer is running low on ink. This might be a huge convenience for small business owners. Overall, this is an awesome compact printer with quality printing for all home and small business needs.

Exactly what I needed for my home office. It's easy to set up, easy to use, and fast!

The HP - LaserJet M234sdw Wireless Black-and-White Laser Printer offers excellent printing for those needing day-to-day black and white only printing. This printer is quick, efficient, and accurate for most printing needs. I boasts up to 30 pages per minute while providing the first page in just under 7 seconds. The 600x600 DPI makes for crisp and clean printing. The auto duplexing feature is great for anyone wanting to print to save paper or for your next booklet printing project. The scanner is fast and accurate, the Bluetooth and WiFi printing makes this unit a well-rounded printer option for most home or small office. I found the printer to be excellent save the lack of color printing. While this is not designed to be a color printer, there seems to be a lack for my needs missing this component. The black and white printing, however, was fast and accurate. I had not hangs or jams using a variety of paper types and weights. I regularly print newsletters using 65lb paper and it handled the job well. PROS - HP brand, quality, and design - Speed of printing - 600x600 DPI - Wireless printing options - Scanner is fast and accurate - Many types and weight paper options - Auto Duplex print option CONS - Lacking Color print option - Need to use the HP app to scan to email or other device other than PC

This printer ticks all of my boxes when it comes to printing my documents and return labels. It’s fast and very easy to setup. My initial setup took less than 10 minutes from box to printing. The prints are dark and rich and very sharp as you would expect from a laser printer. The printer has an app that you can connect to via WiFi and the app itself is very simple and intuitive and most of the administrator settings are a little harder to access to keep users from changing things that may cause issues down the road. The app will allow you to manage multiple printers on your network and you can even print to the printer remotely if need. The printer also has a flatbed scanner which I love because I scan all my receipts and IDs and even though I have a few scanners and ways of doing this, I always appreciate and look for better ways. I believe there are better scanning options out there but in a pinch, this will serve you well. Overall, HP has made a nice entry-level laser jet that will be in my office for a while.

Overall, a nice unit for a small office or work space. The design of the printer is on par with other HP printers. Construction is good and it should hold up well to any office environment. Print quality is excellent compared to other printers. Text and images were clear and concise, and well defined. Not too much saturation. Paper loads easily and feeds smoothly. The only issue I had and why I subtracted one star, was the setup. The printer took me a long time to hook up. I could not get it to hook up via USB. I tried over and over and no luck. I tried through HP Smart, and still no luck. HP Smart needs to be updated and revamped. After more than two hours, I gave up and winded up connecting the printer via Wireless. That worked fine. I have no idea why the USB connection would not work. It did show up in Device Manager via USB, but that was it. No matter how many times I tried to print, it would not. In the end, not a huge deal. Wireless works fine and I am printing away. The printer menus are pretty straight forward and easy to use. Overall, this would make a great printer for a working business person or a small office. I trust HP reliability that it should last me for many years of service.

This printer so far has been great, setup was super easy with the HP Smart app having only took a few minutes to setup. Impressions out of the box are it is a printer with a small footprint and fit nicely on my desk without taking up tons of room. The WiFi setup was really simple and this printer is enabled for cloud printing so you can print from your phone, tablet, PC or Mac. HP's app is overall pretty good and if you have other HP printers it makes it easy to print to each one separately. Print quality is exactly what you'd expect for a laserjet, it's clean and fast. I was actually shocked how fast it prints and when it comes on from sleep it actually is nearly up and prints within a few seconds of waking up. The instant ink for this printer is an option but the toner is easily obtained and very reasonable on cost per page. Finally, a printer that you get great quality and toner that won't break the bank. HP generally makes some of the best laser printers and so far this one exceeds my expectations in that regard. The document feeder worked and was able to zip out copies really quick and the double sided printing works great too. What was most surprising his how fast the double sided prints came out, most printers suffer in impact to speed when printing double sided but this printer handles it very well and fast. What's different on this printer is where the controls are, it's definitely a change and it works once you're used to it. HP simplified the interface so it's really easy to navigate and you don't have to read the manual to understand how to find options in the menus. I'm pretty impressed with this printer overall and would definitely recommend it for a small business or home office. The only reason I might shy away from using it in a larger business or one where multiple users use it would be mostly due to paper capacity, it doesn't hold very much so someone would always be loading it. Outside of that this printer is solid and I'd recommend it!

Another good product from HP... This Multi-Function is not an exception. Printing quality is high and very quite while working. Wifi connection has a good range. Works very fine with the HP app. Easy to install and to use. Quite fast printing. I like the minimalistic and clean design. Not very complicated It is supported with HP instant Ink. I used to have their service on my old inkJet HP printer. Not bad at all and relatively cheap. I checked the website for this printer and it is appealing. They save you time and hassle to worry about your ink level and still with a good price and according to HP, they contribute in recycling the toners (re-use). Paper feeder works very well. So far never had jamming issues. Scanner has also a good resolution. Printing and scanning from your phone (android or iOS) is very easy. Once connected to my home wifi, my computers started picking it as a new device on the network. Installing driver went really well and printer is available from any connected computer. Who would need this? This is a good printer to have in a small office or home office. Elegant shape, small and quiet when working. The small LCD with controls are part of the minimalistic design that adds a nice touch and look. This is not my first HP printer and honestly they never disappointed me.

As the title indicates, the HP LaserJet M234sdw is the prefect wireless laser print for home or small business user. Out of the box, it maybe took 3 minutes to remove all the packaging, which really protected it while it was in transit. Once I had it fully unboxed, I plugged it in, fired up the HP Smart app and the printer was printing inside of another 3 minutes. It also prints really quickly from the HP Smart app, a phone, laptop, or other device. I can print full black and white pages in a fraction of the time it takes to use and Inkjet printer, which is exactly what I wanted it for. It also uses toner instead of ink so the XL cartridges should last for a significant amount of pages. The toner also came preinstalled so I was able to start printing right away - no installing any ink cartridges. Overall, I highly recommend this printer for home of office use. It does the job perfectly, has an easily accessible paper tray and once again, it prints really, really fast. Look no further for a black and white wireless laser print.

This printer replaced a much larger all in one from a different manufacturer. I'm impressed with how powerful it is, despite its light weight. I say lightweight in comparison to my old Canon, which was easily 30 pounds. I have no complaints on how the machine operates so far! It prints insanely fast, even over wifi. I barely press the print button, and its already done. The paper tray is easily accessed and seems fairly sturdy. You can easily change the paper size in the tray to fit your needs. I have yet to try the scanner portion of it, but I have little doubt that it will be just as fast as the printer portion. The only complaint i have is the setup. As usual, HP bloatware and an overly complicated setup process. HP wants you to make an account to supposedly enable wireless printing. This is not the case. Then they'll keep sending you emails telling you to complete your account to enable wireless printing. So annoying. I know this is just par for the course in the tech world, though.

I was relieved at how easy it was for me, a senior citizen, to adapt to my new printer; especially since it is wireless.

Good price, good printer and good deal.. it really works
