Every business needs a printer, but it does not have to be a color printer. It is also safe to say that a lot of businesses greatly benefit from multifunctional printers over getting individual devices for scanning, faxing and printing.
The popular monochrome laser printers in the market have limited features and this is exactly how original equipment manufacturers define a basic device. HP, however, is showing a different story with their LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdw.
LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdw is ideal for heavy duty home use as well as light workgroup printing. The model prints in great speed and can perform dual printing with wireless connectivity features like mobile printing and through cloud.

It is not amongst those, which can sit comfortably on top of a desk. With its size (12.8 x 16.5 x 15.4 inches), you probably want to assign a specific place in the office or at home for it. The great news, however, is that it is not going to take a lot of flat space making it ideal even for small offices.

ADF
HP added a 50-sheet ADF (automatic document feeder) to assist with scanning legal-size documents and perform duplex scanning.
