Is this the right printer for you?

Who the HP Color LaserJet M855xh Printer is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You print 4,000-17,000 pages monthly in mixed color and mono.
  • You handle A3 and 11x17 documents regularly.
  • You want a workgroup printer with strong mobile printing support.
  • You need 1200 x 1200 dpi for sharp marketing collateral.
  • You have a print-only need and skip the scanner.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if your monthly volume sits around 2,000-4,000 pages.
  • It's fine if you mostly print color but occasionally hit a long mono run.
  • It's fine if you fit it on a desk-sized floor area in a shared workspace.
  • It's fine if you have a separate MFP for scan and copy.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if you need built-in scan, copy, or fax.
  • Skip this if you print under 1,000 pages a month.
  • Skip this if you have residential noise constraints.
  • Skip this if your office cannot fit a workgroup-class printer.
  • Skip this if you need a high-capacity finisher for stapling and stacking.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M855xh (A2W78A) is an A3 single-function color laser for high-volume workgroups. It runs at 46 ppm in both color and mono with 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution and automatic duplexing. The 4.3-inch touchscreen, 800 MHz processor, and 1.5 GB of memory keep complex jobs moving. Mobile printing covers HP ePrint, Apple AirPrint, and Mopria. Duty cycle tops out at 175,000 pages per month with recommended volume of 4,000-17,000. Worth knowing before you buy: this is a workgroup-class machine, not a personal printer — A3/11x17 capability means a real footprint. There is no scanner or fax — single-function only. The thing buyers most regret: not appreciating that mobile printing requires the printer to be on the same network as the mobile device. Wireless setup is not as simple as a home printer.
