The HP LaserJet Pro M12w is one of HP's smallest wireless monochrome laser printers, made for home offices and tight desks. It is a single-function printer with Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct, measuring 13.7 by 8.5 by 7.7 inches with the trays folded and weighing about 11.5 pounds.

HP rates it at up to 19 pages per minute on letter paper (18 ppm on A4) with 600 x 600 dpi output and HP FastRes 1200 quality. The 150-sheet input tray and 100-sheet output bin cover light use, two-sided printing is manual, and a 266 MHz processor with 8 MB of memory handles basic documents. It connects over Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n or USB 2.0, with a 5,000-page monthly duty cycle and a recommended 100 to 1,000 pages.

It uses the HP 79A black toner cartridge, rated for about 1,000 pages. GS Toner stocks the genuine HP 79A.
