HP LaserJet 2420dn Monochrome Printer

 (5 customer reviews)

We used an HP LaserJet 4M plus for years. The 2420 warms up quicker and prints much faster.

Unlike the 4M, the 2420 is silent! In fact, I often forget to turn it off when leaving the office.

The descriptions for the 2420 are confusing. The 500-sheet paper tray is NOT included. We bought one separately.

The 2420dn is a great printer and meets every need I have in a mono laser. It's very, very fast, the first page is out in less than 10 seconds. The built-in networking is fast and works great.

I am buying my fourth HP 2420 today (all in use, not as replacements). I love these! This printer handles the graphics I print better than other printers-I've had to send other models back because they couldn't print what I bought them for. Printing times are reasonable, and the print quality is great. They are a little loud, which was never an issue at work (we have lots of machinery-I didn't even notice it)-only noticed it when I set one up in my living room at home.
