The M1212nf LaserJet Pro Monochrome Multifunction Printer from HP prints at up to 19pages per minute with the first page out in as little as 10 seconds. The printer's 600x600 dpi delivers quality documents in sizes ranging from a 3.0x5.0" index card to a 8.5x14.0" legal-sized document. Thanks to driver-supported manual duplex printing, it's easy to conserve paper and reduce clutter by printing on both sides of the page.
The printer's internal 64 MB of memory handles complex documents without slowing down your computer. The unit can be easily connected to a local network using built-in Ethernet connectivity or to a standard computer USB port. Additionally, the M1212nf is compatible with HP ePrint. Print from wherever you are by emailing a file attachment to your printer's unique email address (assigned during installation). When you get back to the printer, the document will be waiting for you in the output tray.
The M1212nf's 50-sheet auto document feeder provides an easy way to scan, copy, or fax multipage documents at once. Copying options include resizing, copy quality, and copy quantity. The machine can copy up to 27 ppm and produces the first copy in as little as 8 seconds so there's never any waiting.
The 1200dpi image sensor lets you scan high-quality color and monochrome documents to the computer. Take advantage of the 50-page ADF and digitize multipage one-sided documents to reduce paper clutter and move towards a paperless office. Using the ADF, the scanner can handle page sizes up to 8.5x14.0".
The M1212nf has a full-featured fax unit with a 33.6Kbps modem that transmits pages in as little as 3 seconds. The machine provides multiple dialing options including 120 speed dials, a 250-page fax memory for when the printer is out of paper, fax forwarding, auto-redial, and delayed sending. The device has multi-tasking capabilities so if one person is printing or copying, you can still receive faxes.

Comments about HP M1212nf LaserJet Pro Monochrome Multifunction Printer:
For the price, a great printer/copier/fax that is fast enough with very good black & white print quality for personal or small home office use as long as you don't need color. The feature that sets it apart from some less or equally-priced products is the flatbed (8-1/2" x 11" only) for copying & scanning. It does everything that I bought it to do.

I have used its scanner and printer function, it works as expected.
print speed is fast, print quality is good. the print out put comes out and fall to the floor.
scanner works smoothly and many choices for file typs such as JPG, PDF and etc, the only thing is not good - I have to set up the save path every time,

I use this printer for my home office and it has the features I needed and they work very well. I wanted a laser printer that had an ePrint feature so I could print documents from my iPhone or iPad and it works well. (This feature is not listed under "specifications" on the B & H site and should probably be added.) I like the multi-page feed for copying and the quality of prints. It was worth the price. I appreciated the $20 rebate but HP could make the process a bit simpler.

Comments about HP M1212nf LaserJet Pro Monochrome Multifunction Printer:
If this machine had a better manual feed it would be better. You have to unload the paper, adjust the width size and feed. When printing checks I can feed them on top of the paper stack, but feeding an envolope is guess work laying it in the center of the paper stack and hoping for the best. So far so good, no problems and at about $150 it cleared some space in my home office while filling all the basic needs

I have a home office and have a Color Laser for our big jobs, but I moved that one to a different part of my house. So, I needed a multi purpose and didn't really need it to be color.
This HP was/is perfect, been using it for a couple weeks, prints SUPER fast, scanner/fax and copy functions are quick and easy to use. I like that loader for scanning multipal sheets.
Already saved me $20 in efax costs.
All in all I'm really glad I bought it.

This printer works great. Prints very fast compared to our last inkjet printer. I like the network functionality that allows me to print from our other 2 PCs.
The only thing I didn't like so much is when it scans it takes a long time for photos if if I set the resolution to high.
We don't have a phone line so we won't be using the fax. Will probably figure out how to fax from the PC if needed.
Overall, it's a good quality printer that allows me to scan/copy documents.

Spec's say 8 seconds for the first page, but I'm getting it sooner. I also bought a compatible toner cart and it has worked perfectly making the toner very reasonable. It copies, prints, and faxes well. And the ADF (auto document feeder) works very well. I was a little afraid the adf would not feed well because of it's flat design, but it's great too.
