HP Color LaserJet Enterprise 5700dn
A wired enterprise colour laser printer for mid-to-large workgroups. Reliable, fast, and built to handle demanding colour print volumes every day.
Editor's summary
The HP Color LaserJet Enterprise 5700dn is an enterprise-class office printer built for shared, high-volume environments. Starting price of $1,199 reflects business-class build rather than consumer-grade plastics.
Rated print speed of 45 ppm is genuinely fast — comfortably ahead of what most offices will ever need in everyday use. The 100,000-page monthly duty cycle confirms it is built for sustained workgroup volume. Running cost is competitive at $0.012 per page, keeping ownership costs predictable for regular use.
Connectivity relies on wired Ethernet — simpler and more reliable in a shared-office setting than pure Wi-Fi.
Overall, it is a serious enterprise printer and should be matched against Canon imageRUNNER and Ricoh IM-class equivalents in any business procurement.
