The HP LaserJet Pro 4002dw doesn’t have some of the bells and whistles of higher-spec printers, like a built-in scanner and copier. It might be great at printing sharp black text documents, though and may keep costs down by being economical with toner. Read our full review to find out how it fared when we put it through our rigorous tests.

How we test ease of use

Ease of use, including printing, copying and scanning where relevant.

Printing costs

How we test printing costs

How cheap or expensive the printer is for ink/toner costs per page. More stars means cheaper prints. Costs are based on our occasional printing test - printing black text and colour pages, leaving time between prints and turning the printer off between uses. Printers with no star rating were tested prior to our occasional printing test.

Power use

How we test power use

For energy, it's based on power use when the printer is turned off, in standby and when idle, just after printing.
