    Workteams excel with HP’s black-and-white office LaserJet printers, which pack extra punch with high-quality results, extra power, and more features.

    The operating code (BIOS) is automatically checked during startup and repairs itself if compromised. Common Criteria certified[4] to continually monitor memory activity to detect and stop attacks in real time. Firmware is automatically checked during startup to determine if it’s authentic code—digitally signed by HP. The printer’s outgoing network connections are inspected to stop suspicious requests and thwart malware.

    Enhanced productivity to empower work teams

    Give workgroups what they need to succeed with hundreds of HP and third-party solutions and card reader support. Help ensure the security of confidential information with PIN/Pull printing to retrieve print jobs. Stay connected with an optional accessory for wireless,[6] Bluetooth® Low Energy, and NFC touch-to-print. Print directly from the 2.7-inch (6.9 cm) color display.

    Sustainability is smart business

    Help save paper right out of the box. Two-sided (duplex) printing is set at default for automatic savings.[7] Help reduce wasted paper and toner by only printing jobs that are truly needed, using HP Secure Print.[8] Save energy without sacrificing performance—this printer is ENERGY STAR® and Blue Angel certified. Remove barriers and help meet compliance and accessibility standards with the HP Accessibility Kit (which includes Braille overlay and tactile adhesives, an HP Access Handle, and BigKeys LX Keyboard) and compatibility with HP Accessibility Assistant.

    One of my clients is an accounting firm. Printing large tax returns, the printer will pause for long periods of time. That printer has 512mb and is not upgradable. I see that this printer has 1gb. How many pages can this printer hold at one time?

    Asked by: CSCINC
    Hello. Thanks for your question. This HP LaserJet Enterprise M406dn printer can hold 100 sheets in tray 1 and 250 sheets in input tray 2. You do have the option to add a 550-sheet paper tray to this printer. The part number for the 550 sheet paper tray is D9P29A.
