The HP Officejet Pro X551dw document printer, as its name suggests, is aimed at professionals seeking the quality of inkjet printing but with the speed of laser. If you really need to photocopy, scan and fax, you'll want to consider its big brother, the HP Officejet Pro X576dw. Beware, though: this model is twice the price!

Assuming you have the space and budget for it, the HP Officejet Pro X551dw is an affordable, high-quality inkjet printer built for quality, speed, and endurance, whether connecting from a PC or mobile device.

The HP makes some proud claims, and it more than satisfies the majority of them. Very cheap to run, and with a string of strong features and good paper handling, it works exceedingly well. Speed is searing too, outpacing many a laser printer. ...

The HP Officejet Pro X551dw really is a new concept in office printers and this machine is an excellent first offering. It’s very fast, very cheap to run and produces high quality black and colour print on both plain and photo paper. It’s reasonably expensive to buy, but not when compared with colour laser printers with anything like the same specifications.
