HP LaserJet M2727nf MFP
Do more and do it well with this highpowered, fully loaded black-and-white MFP.
Enhanced performance
Don’t waste time waiting for your documents. The
HP LaserJet M2727nf MFP features professional print
and copy speeds of up to 27 ppm (pages per minute).
Other MFPs need time to warm up before printing the
first page, but with no-wait Instant-on Technology your
first page will print two times faster than devices
without it.
scan jobs begin in a matter of seconds—even first
thing in the morning.
Your documents always look great with reliable,
high-quality printing at true 1200 dpi. We design our
toner formulas and papers to work with each other
and with the device’s high speeds—so you get crisp
and consistent print quality without sacrificing
performance.
Easily handle even the most demanding jobs with
HP PCL and HP postscript level 3 emulation driver
support, a powerful 450 MHz processor, and 64 MB
RAM (expandable to 320 MB).

Studies from Quality Logic show the typical print job is three to five pages. Instant-on Technology uses cutting-edge fuser
technology to produce the first page faster when a printer is coming out of PowerSave mode so your print job is done sooner.
2
A downstream telephone is required to enable the Fax/Tel feature (not included).

The MFP comes standard with one 50-sheet multipurpose input tray and one 250-sheet input tray, and the option for an
additional 250-sheet tray.
