Best overall Workgroup Office Printer
And the winner is...
A laser-based printer, the HP Colour LaserJet Pro MFP M479fdw is of fairly standard size and weight for office deployment, which means it does take up space so it’s less suitable for those with small offices. One of its highlight features is the 4.3-inch LCD touch display, which was large enough house a virtual QWERTY keyboard on it. The menus are also straightforward and can be easily navigated.
We also liked the Wi-Fi connectivity options offered as it is one of the few tested that supported 5GHz connectivity with no problems (as opposed to some of the contenders that could only latch on to the 2.4GHz network). It can print in full colour or monochrome at close to the stated 30 pages per minute and can auto-scan two-sided documents in a single pass, thanks to its duplex auto-document feeder.
It was easily the fastest printer we've tested and was further complemented by its excellent document printing quality. The test images within the document also had the closest to true colours as seen on our screen and were sharp and clear with no colour saturation or bleeding.
But, while it could print pictures in documents very well, if you wanted to print actual photos it would be better to use an actual photo printer. That said, this is, after all, an office workhorse unit, so that's to be expected.
