Is this the right printer for you?

Who the HP Color LaserJet M855dn 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 2,000-4,000+ pages a month and want fast color and mono.
  • You handle A3 and 11x17 documents regularly.
  • You want auto duplex to cut paper use.
  • You only need print — no scanner, copier, or fax.
  • You value the energy-saving Auto-On/Auto-Off behavior.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • It's fine if your monthly volume sits around 1,000-2,000 pages.
  • It's fine if you mostly print A4/Letter and use A3 occasionally.
  • It's fine if you have a separate scanner already.
  • It's fine if you accept the workgroup-sized footprint.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • Skip this if you need scanning, copying, or fax — get an MFP variant.
  • Skip this if your monthly volume is under 500 pages.
  • Skip this if your office is residential and noise-sensitive.
  • Skip this if you mostly need standard letter printing.
  • Skip this if you have limited desk or floor space.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The HP Color LaserJet M855dn (A2W77A) is an A3 single-function color laser printer for small workgroups that print a high mix of color marketing materials, presentations, and tabloid documents. It runs 46 ppm in color and mono, with automatic duplex, 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution, and HP Auto-On/Auto-Off Technology to cut idle power use. It targets teams that print roughly 4,000 pages a month and want a print-only machine — no scanner or fax. Worth knowing before you buy: this is a workgroup-class A3 printer, not a personal device. It is single-function only, so if you also need scan or copy, look at the M880z. The thing buyers most regret: assuming print-only meant compact — the M855dn is still a workgroup-sized footprint because of the 11x17 capability and paper handling.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

What customers actually say

The 5-star consensus: "it just works"

Small sample size, high signal. The 3 verified reviewers picked this model to replace older inkjets or aging HP machines. Common threads in the feedback:

  • ★ "We needed a color printer that could handle high volume in our office, and the M855dn has been reliable for two years. The print quality is sharp for our marketing materials, and the duplex printing cuts our paper costs noticeably. Network setup was straightforward."
  • ★ "Good printer overall, though the toner cartridges are expensive and run out faster than I expected with color documents. Speed and output quality are solid, and it handles our small business printing without issues."
  • ★ "Bought this for our design firm where we proof print color work daily. The M855dn's color accuracy is consistent and the finishing options work well for our needs. Paper tray capacity is decent too."

FAQ

HP Color LaserJet M855dn Printer, common questions

The questions we get asked most often on this model. If yours isn't here, call (706) 561-0075 and get an answer in about 30 seconds.

Yes, the HP Color LaserJet M855dn Printer ships with starter toner cartridges. The starter black toner yields approximately 29,000 pages, while the cyan, magenta, and yellow starter toners each yield up to 31,500 pages at 5% coverage. Replacement high-yield toners (HP 826A series) offer the same yields. When you lease through us with toner included, you never pay for toner separately.
The HP Color LaserJet M855dn is a single-function A3 color laser printer with a 46 ppm print speed, ideal for small workgroups needing high-volume color printing. In contrast, the HP Color LaserJet Managed Flow MFP E78625z is a multifunction A3 color laser printer with a slower 25 ppm print speed but includes scanning, copying, and advanced security features like HP Wolf Security. The MFP E78625z also has a higher monthly duty cycle (110,000 pages) and expandable paper capacity, making it better suited for larger workgroups. For small offices needing only printing, the M855dn offers faster output and lower complexity.

However, it is a single-function printer, so if your business also needs scanning or copying, consider a multifunction alternative.
