The HP Color Laser MFP 179fwg is a compact color laser all-in-one that prints, scans, copies and faxes for home and small offices. It prints up to 18 pages per minute in black (A4) and up to 4 ppm in color at 600 x 600 dpi, and a 40-sheet automatic document feeder speeds up multi-page copies and scans.
Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, 10/100 Ethernet and USB connect it to every device, with Apple AirPrint and Mopria for phones and tablets. The 150-sheet input tray and 50-sheet output tray suit light daily use, and HP recommends 100 to 500 pages a month with a maximum duty cycle of 20,000 pages.
The 179fwg uses separate toner cartridges plus a long-life imaging drum. GS Toner stocks the genuine HP 120A imaging drum, rated at about 16,000 pages, with free US shipping.
