Key Advantages

The HP M476dn delivers excellent color print quality suitable for professional documents and marketing materials. Fast print speeds of up to 28 ppm help maintain productivity during demanding office hours. Reliable wired network connectivity via Gigabit Ethernet ensures stable printer access across multiple users. Automatic duplex printing reduces paper consumption and operational costs. Its compact design allows it to fit in office spaces without occupying excessive room. The printer’s embedded security features help protect sensitive documents and restrict unauthorized access efficiently.

Limitations

This printer lacks wireless connectivity options like Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, limiting flexibility for mobile printing. The initial cost and ongoing usage of color laser toner cartridges can be relatively high compared to inkjet printers. Its maximum print resolution, while good, is lower than some newer models featuring higher dpi capabilities. The input tray capacity is adequate but may require frequent refilling in high-volume offices. It does not support scanning, copying, or faxing functions, being a print-only device. Additionally, the printer model is now somewhat outdated compared to modern multifunction printers with advanced features.
