HP LaserJet M209d Laser Printer, Black and White, Automatic Duplex, USB Connection Only (Cable Included), Best for Home Office (8J9L0F)

Pretty standard printer. Works well for my basic need to make copies. Good price for for family printer.

This laser printer plugged in to my M3 MacBook Air (OS Ventura) with a USB-C to USB Adapter and works great out of the box. The adapter is about $40 from Apple. This is the most reliable and economical printer for occasional use that I could find. I find the wireless-printer world too confusing, and inkjet printers demand lots of use so jets don't clog. Inkjet printers also demand expensive colour cartridges. I like the simple USB connection for this printer and reliable B&W printed pages.

This turned out to be an amazing printer. Prints fast, with great quality, and I like the option of printing on both sides of each page, which is easy to switch on and off. A reminder that it's a WIRED printer, which works good for my little home office.For you MAC people, there was a little glitch that came up on the installation (sorry, I don't remember now exactly what it was) but it was something that popped up -- "there's a problem with (blank. )"I was kind of expecting that -- after reading other reviews. That had me concerned, being an 82-year-old with low tech capabilities -- and I was worried that I'd have to hire "a guy" to come fix it, or be on the phone for hours (and you know that routine!) or, last option, return the printer. Well, I think I just kind of ignored it, loaded some paper, hit the "print" button, and just like that, the "problem" disappeared, and we were off to the races with this great little printer. There was no cartridge to install, nothing.I highly recommend it, especially for the price.

Prática e útil no uso doméstico

Hasta ahora la impresora ha funcionado muy bien, sin ningún problema. Por su precio me parece una muy buena compra. El hecho de no tener conexión vía wifi se resuelve fácilmente a través de una red local inalámbrica.

I really enjoy this printer. It is different from the other printers I have purchased. My other printers were hooked up to my WiFi and used the snap in ink cartridges. I do not use my printer that often and because of this, it seemed when I would go to print something, my printer was always offline. Also, the ink cartridge had dried out. It was a miserable experience. So I decided to give this laser printer a shot. It was reasonably priced, used the toner cartridge, and simply hooked to my computer via cable. Not only do I now get a quality print job, I also have no more frustration of trying to figure out why my printer keeps going offline and won't work. If you have the problem I did, this is the way to go. Great price, no hassles, great print quality! Do note that this printer prints only in black and white. No color. But I only need it for simple print jobs.

Works great prints like a dream! Easy to set up

So easy to use! After returning a wireless printer that I could never get to work properly. This literally just requires plugging in to my MacBook and it prints right away. I don't know why things have gotten so complicated these days, but I'm so glad to have found a straightforward plug-and-play printer. It is small enough to fit nicely on my desk too. I haven't had it long enough to speak to ink usage, but the print quality isn't bad!

Excelente impresora..yo la utilizo para hacer papelería social, acepta papel de alto gramaje. El detalle es que es únicamente conexión por cable USB, yo no tengo problema con eso así que por el precio decidí comprarla así, pero debes considerarlo si necesitas que sea inalámbrica está el mismo modelo con conexión wi-fi obvio más cara.

I have always been a fan of HP printers, and this does not disappoint. Easy to set up and produces crisp, clear printing. For anyone who will use it for light-duty printing jobs, this printer is well worth the (relatively modest) cost.

Driver issues accurate as of April 2025. Ignore the MAC OS icon in the ads & at HP.com if you're running anything later than MacOS v11.x. The HP drivers aren't compatible with anything later. I tried to download other laser printer drivers (as another customer suggested,) but none would work. HP support was laughable. After 4 agents & 2.5 hours of effort, I'd attempted several avenues to connect this printer with their guidance only to fail.Not one of the people assigned to the case was capable of reading, or perhaps, 'believing' the printer specs, or was convinced this model is USB only. Each tried to "get" me to connect to ethernet via a non-existent RJ-45 jack. They instructed me to peel off the grey sticker covering the vacant spot where the RJ-45 port could be, not trusting their own eyes to read this model is USB only! At the agents request, I shared many photos of the printer and the printer box, clearly advertising both MAC OS & USB-only and of the empty RJ-45 jack area at different stages of the support call, and am not exaggerating that they were all positive this printer has an ethernet port! The efforts were a waste of time for me & HP.Keep in mind, other printers in this series have ethernet ports. The open space under the sticker on the back (near the USB port) is where those models RJ-45 is located. in those cases, there should be more functionality with regards to using HP Smart or the mobile app, but not with this USB-only model & Mac Sequoia.HP blames Apple, of course, though they don't offer constructive comment on why HP won't update its drivers, with the last one being dated Fall 2024. Instead, they mentioned the issue of Sequoia's security features. Why a company the size of HP doesn't work with Apple to supply up-to-date drivers as Mac OS versions roll out, or clearly list which MAC OS are supported on the printer box, in advertising materials & at HP.com, is startling. I pre-shopped extensively. Had I seen a "not compatible with Mac OS v12 or later" or similar statement, I wouldn't have ordered the printer. Simple. Without HP supporting Mac OS updates, I won't be a customer.In theory, it 'could' AirPrint, exactly as is indicated on the HP site's driver page, but that comes back to the need for a Sequoia compatible driver & ethernet port or wireless capability. HP's Smart App for Mac OS Desktop or the mobile app aren't compatible with this particular USB-only model & Mac OS Sequoia because those Apps look for either an ethernet or wireless connection. Basically, there isn't a workaround because Sequoia won't recognize this model. I used two different USB-A to B cables with a USB-C adapter to connect it & cross-tested the cables & the printer with a neighbors Windows 11 computer & can verify that system did recognize this printer, confirming the issue lies with HP's Mac OS Sequoia incompatibility. Sadly, I can't lose several key Sequoia functions by rolling back to an earlier Mac OS. My goal was to have a simple USB laser printer model for my very occasional printing needs, but at the moment, it seems the Kyocera MA2000w is my only option.Of note, the printer box did include the USB cable. The ink cartridge is labeled as a starter. I don't know it's page capacity.Amazon was very pleasant to work with in scheduling the return of the printer & UPS picked it up for free Prime return the next day!

Very easy to get started, my Mac picked up the printer driver automatically, and the printer worked just fine. Very fast printing, highly recommended.
