appropriate deployment of printers and MFPs to satisfy the demands of connected individuals or groups.

HP recommends that the number of printed pages per month be within the stated range for optimum device performance, based on factors including supplies replacement intervals and device life over an extended

warranty period.

Includes control panel height and 4mm side handle protrusions.
