Overview
A four-cartridge toner system with a toner collection unit drives this HP Color LaserJet Enterprise printer, which produces color and black pages at the same speed. Management features cover workgroup needs, and security tools protect business data.
Speed that stays level in color helps a busy office, along with a ready-loaded set of toner. The limit is function, since the listing shows print only, and its size fields are inconsistent with the title.
Who it's for
Workgroups sharing a network printer for presentations, reports and forms are the target. Solo users with a few pages a week, and anyone who needs scan or copy functions, will find it oversized.
Pros and cons
- Same speed in color and black
- Four toner cartridges preinstalled
- Two paper trays
- Automatic two-sided printing
- Print only, no scan or copy
- Heavy for a desk
- Size fields in listing conflict
Performance notes
Toner cartridges ship installed, so the first pages print without a separate loading step. The two trays feed the engine from different sources, which helps when switching paper types. Color output depends on the toner formulation and the engine resolution rather than the connection.

Frequently asked questions
How much desk space does the HP Color LaserJet Enterprise M553dn need?
The title gives 18.9 x 18 x 15.7 inches, while a separate spec field shows an unusable placeholder. The unit weighs 60.6 pounds, so plan for a stable stand or table.
What comes in the box with the HP M553dn?
The listing names the printer, four preinstalled toner cartridges, a toner collection unit, documentation, a software CD, a power cord and the two trays.
Does the HP M553dn scan or copy?
No. The listing shows print only, so a scanner or copier would need to be a separate machine.
