Print speed is advertised up to 20 ppm, and in my testing, it consistently delivered close to that rate for standard text documents. The quality is also impressive; text is sharp and clear, and graphics render with good detail. I even tested printing high-resolution images, and the results were surprisingly good, though not comparable to dedicated photo printers. The scanning function is equally efficient, producing clear and sharp scans. Copying speed mirrored the printing speed, which was a welcome surprise. The only slight drawback I found was a minor delay in warming up before the first print, which is typical for laser printers.

I used a wide variety of paper types, from standard office paper to slightly thicker cardstock, and the printer handled them all with no major issues. There were no noticeable jams or paper feed problems throughout my testing period.

Pros:

  • Compact and space-saving design
  • Fast print and copy speeds (close to the advertised 20 ppm)
  • Excellent print and scan quality for documents and basic graphics
  • Easy to use and set up
  • Reliable performance

Cons:

  • Lacks wireless connectivity
  • Slight warm-up delay before the first print
  • Not ideal for high-volume printing
  • Image quality is acceptable but not exceptional for photographic prints.

Overall, the Laser MFP 135a [4ZB82A] White is a solid and reliable all-in-one printer that delivers on its promises of speed and quality. Its compact size and user-friendly interface make it a great choice for small offices, home users, and students. While the lack of wireless connectivity might be a drawback for some, the performance and value for the price point are hard to ignore. I would confidently recommend this printer to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient device for their everyday printing, copying, and scanning needs. For my needs, it’s been a great addition to my workspace and continues to perform well.
