HP LaserJet Pro 4001n
A high-throughput monochrome laser printer for workgroups with demanding print volumes. Network-ready via Ethernet for easy office sharing.
Editor's summary
The HP LaserJet Pro 4001n targets the small-office and home-office segment — consistent output through the working week without enterprise-grade overhead. A starting price of $289 places it in the mid-market — more capable than the sub-$100 tier but without premium-segment overhead.
Rated print speed of 42 ppm is genuinely fast — comfortably ahead of what most offices will ever need in everyday use. With a monthly duty cycle of 80,000 pages, the hardware has clear headroom for small-office workloads. Cost per page is very low at $0.010 — a strong long-term economic argument, particularly for anyone printing more than a few dozen pages a month.
Connectivity relies on wired Ethernet — simpler and more reliable in a shared-office setting than pure Wi-Fi.
Overall, it is a well-balanced option for small teams — the spec profile matches consistent weekday volume without the overhead of an enterprise MFP.
