Reliable and functional copier, positioned by the manufacturer in the middle price segment. First of all, let's pay attention to the fact that the device uses full-colour laser printing technology. This type of equipment is mainly designed to serve small workgroups of users. The maximum load recommended by the manufacturer is 20,000 pages per month. The all-in-one prints and scans documents at 600x600 dpi, which can be called an indicator of the “below average” level, but this is enough for printing documents, abstracts, etc.

The speed of monochrome printing and scanning is 18 ppm, while printing and full-colour documents are scanned at a speed of 4 ppm. Scanned files can be saved in formats such as PDF, JPG, and TIFF. It is noteworthy that the HP Colour Laser 178NW MFP uses a dynamic security system that monitors the state of the programme code in real time. The device comes with a Fast Ethernet 10/100Base-Tx network adapter, but it also has a Wi-Fi 4 wireless module with support for Wi-Fi Direct technology. The printer is compatible with a wide range of mobile applications, including Google Cloud Print, Apple AirPrint, Mopria, HP Smart, and more. The control panel features a 2-line monochrome screen for easy everyday use. The clock frequency of the microprocessor is 800 MHz.

The "Laser" HP Colour Laser 178NW from the colour league of home-office MFPs properly handles with all the claimed functions: it prints quickly, scans and copies paper well. It can also be used to print small pictures for your home photo album.

High performance

The device is designed to work with sheets of A4 format. Those in the loading tray of the model fit up to 150 pcs. For monochrome printing tasks, the HP Colour Laser 178NW delivers up to 18 ppm. Documents with colour charts leave the depths of the MFP at 4 ppm. The maximum resolution of the obtained prints rests on the “ceiling” of 600x600 dpi, which is an indicator “below the average in the ward”.

Printing over Wi-Fi

The MFP is “attached” to the computer via a wire, and “over the air” the model keeps in touch with mobile gadgets running Android or iOs. The device supports wireless printing and scanning services Google Cloud Print, Apple AirPrint, Mopria and, of course, the proprietary HP Smart app.

Strong positions

The monthly load on the HP Colour Laser 178NW should not exceed 20,000 pages. During the printing period of such a volume of sheets, you will have to refill a black-and-white cartridge about 20 times and a colour cartridge about 30 times. Convenience in interacting with the device adds a two-line monochrome screen on the control panel. In the category of "laser machines" 3-in-1 for home use or small office workgroups, the model occupies a very strong position.
