Great Home Office Printer

Great filing cabinet for our home office! Love the color! Our HP OfficePro Jet Printer sits nicely on top of the printer. It was securely packaged, so there was no damage during shipment. I only wished it was a little taller off the ground to prevent leaning over often at the desk to search for the files in the back of the cabinet. Other than that, it's great for our needs.

This is a great machine.  I was setting up a home office to work from full time.  I do a lot of documentation for work and was interested in finding a powerful enough machine, but was trying to keep the cost reasonable.

This machine is perfect.  The wireless set up in minutes - really.  The scan is crisp and the colors are nice.  It prints quietly and quickly with no paper jams so far!  I didn't buy it to print photo quality pictures and I am pretty sure it probably isn't the top choice if that is what you are buying a machine for, but for printing documents - I really couldn't have done better.

I've been using the 8600 for about 7 months now. Primarily for printing and scanning. All in all this has been the most user friendly home office, small business printer I have used over the years. Set up was very easy, especially if one follows the directions rather than simply "plugging and praying". Still using the original ink cartridges and just recently got my first low ink notification after using at least one ream of paper. Very easy to adjust the quality and speed of printing on the fly. I would have given it a full 5 stars if it had not been for the somewhat fickle fax operations. I believe this may be due to the fact I am coming off a cable modem and using this line for both voice and fax. Perhaps if it was a dedicated line it would work as well as the rest of the features.

This printer delivers good home or small office quality in an easy to use package. Once unboxed, this printer was connected wirelessly to my network in just two or three minutes. Other computers easily connected via wi-fi. Print quality is good enough for home use and most small office users. Time will tell on the toner life.

I was a little suprised on the footprint of this printer as compared to the HL-2140 I was replacing - it's quite a bit larger (and heavier). It did force me to slightly alter where I placed the printer.

Update (07/13/2015)

Still loving this printer. Using the 'starter' toner cartridges I got a toner low warning on the black cartridge about 700 pages in. I reset the status via a method from the web and was able to continue using the same cartridge for an additional 1000 pages (1700 pages).

The yellow cartridge ran out around 1500 pages. The cyan and magenta cartridges are still going strong.

The Epson WF-3540 multifunction printer is the best one I've found for home office, and this ink that's used with it is very good too.

This a great printer for home use. Superior color prints and my real costs are very close to Kodak's $0.15/print using Kodak's Premium paper/ink packs.

A little noisy but not bad. The built in duplexer is great for double sided letter printing.

The pigment based prints DO NOT FADE in bright light as every dye based printer I've used. (This is based upon it using the same ink as my 2+ year old Kodak 5300.

The built in networking is a real bonus. No need to use a printer share or run a 2nd computer. The networking supports bi-directional communication so one can monitor ink and paper.

I have a small home office and do a reasonable amount of printing in the average day. I have always used inkjet printers up to now because laser units were just too big. The HP Color Laser Jet Pro MFP M277dw filled my needs exactly with a footprint that nearly matched my outgoing inkjet.

The printer is fast, quiet and produces page after page of great looking office output. It is WiFi and Ethernet connectable and is iPv6 compatible. Scanning, faxing and copying multiple pages works great with the sheet feeder.  The duplex feature actually works and  The software allows you to store incoming work to be printed at a later time. The ability to print via Bluetooth is also a nice feature.

The printer is versatile and highly customizable. The print quality for text and saturated color is excellent. The quality for pictures, a little less so, although it is still good.

All things considered, this is a great little home office machine.

We've had this printer for several months now and have been very happy with the quality. It prints clear and fast. I use the scanner/copier all the time and I love that it has the slot at the top where I can send multiple pages through easily. Very happy with this printer for the price.

I bought this printer about 3 weeks ago and so far I am extremely pleased with it. The setup was a breeze. I am planning to use it with wireless later on, but so far I used it only with the USB connection. Other than that I tried most features and it worked flawlessly: print (color, B/W), double-sided, copy, scan to pdf, scan to OCR, feeder, fax in , fax out). Some reviewers complained about the speed, the wait time when printing double-sided, the vibrations, etc. But, this is a %130 printer, not a $2000 office printer...  It is meant for light use, not for "I need this full-color 200-pages report perfectly printed and ready in 10min for my boss's boss" kind of job...  I feel very satisfied with this product as a medium-duty at home.

I purchased the HL2270DW to replace an old (8 years)HL-5140.  I find it to be an excellent printer for a home/home office.  I've been using it for over a month now and it is doing exactly what I wanted it for.  It came with very understandable set up instructions and was up and printing in less than 10 minutes from the time I opened the box.

I've read some reviews that said it was noisy but they must have been written by people who've never used a laser printer.  This model is so much quieter than the unit it replaced. It's also much quieter than any inkjet printer I've used.

Overall, as my the title of my review says, unless you need color printing, this is a perfect printer for your home.

Have this printer set up on my home office network - the utility to add it to the network made it very easy.  Print and scan quality is excellent.  As some other reviewers said, it is noisy when it is actually printing, but the rest of the time it it quiet.  It goes from sleep to print much quicker than my old printer.  I'm very happy with it.

it was super easy to set up, prints quickly and not too loudly and faxes, scans, copies everything i need.  I'm using it in my home office and i'm pretty happy with it.

This is a great printer. Bought it for my 8 person office and it does a great job so far. High quality prints, scanner works great, and simple set-up.

Easy to setup, easy to use. Great B&W printing and long cartridge life. Just perfect for the small office where I use it. I am considering buying a color, wireless version for home use. The only "problem" is that the printer is on the large side if you are limited on space.

I really have no complaints.  It is sturdy enough for home use, relatively quiet and was easy to set up for wireless use.  It is perfect so far.  My complaints with prior printers were they were flimsy and kept trying to download new software that caused printing errors.  They were very frustrating.  This one seems stable and anyone on my network can print or scan etc. effortlessly.

I have owned this printer for over a year and have been extremely happy with it. It was very easy to setup on Day 1 and we had all the PC's in the house printing wirelessly that first day. Some of the features I really like are the ability to change individual toners (that is a money saver and we have been through at least 7-8 sets of toner with no problems, take those 1 star review/rants on the toner as folks who probably don't know they have to remove the plastic from the inkhead :-)....easy to load paper, easy to use scan (worked great with XP and now Win 7), easy to setup and use fax and the LCD is great for previewing pics on media memory cards. All in all, I would HIGHLY recommend this printer to anyone looking for an inexpensive, versatile, reliable multi-function printer for their home or office. I am actually about to purchase a second one for my son since he is printing voluminous amounts of homework and while he gets the exercise going up and down the stairs, it will be a great Xmas gift for him!

You also should shop around for toner when the time comes to replace it, I have been very happy with supermediastore.com, they have great prices on toner and fast shipping.

I love my new printer. Wireless with all the amenities needed for a home office printer. What makes it extra wonderful, being able to print front my tablet, laptop and desktop without having to plug in a cord!
