HP MFP M575f Printer Review

With the addition of color printing and faxing, the HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M575f multifunction color laser printer is an upgrade from similar models in its line, but it is still pretty expensive. Print speeds of 31 pages per minute are solid, but not overly impressive for the price, and buyers will spend a lot replacing HP MFP M575f toner.

The MFP M575f is part of a model series that includes the MFP M575 base model, and the MFP M575dn model with duplexing and faxing. It includes the same duplex printing and Gigabit ethernet network support, and also adds faxing capabilities.

The automatic document feeder can hold up to 50 sheets at a time for scanning, and HP touts the unit's ability to send digital files in a number of ways, such as email, PC Fax, and more. An internal hard drive is included for storing digital documents, and they can be shared with other users on the network, with security features to keep them restricted when necessary. With so many digital workflow options, users might find themselves using less HP 500 MFP M575f toner as well as paper.

With a 100-sheet multipurpose tray and a 250-sheet main tray, the machine doesn't offer much capacity. Its maximum monthly duty cycle is up to 75,000 pages, but this would require a lot of reloading of paper to reach.

When it comes to replacement toners, HP MFP M575f toner cartridges are very pricey. Choosing remanufactured LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M575f toner is a way to negate the high prices, but users should still expect to spend a lot. Standard LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M575f toner cartridges yield around 5,500 to 6,000 pages each, with high-capacity black supplies that offer up to 11,000 pages.

There are certainly some impressive features included with the MFP M575f, but its total package isn't really enough to justify its high price. Add to that the expense of HP MFP M575f toner, and it is not a cost-effective option at all.
