Is this the right printer for you?
Who the HP Color LaserJet Managed MFP E87740dn is actually for
Most equipment pages just tell you what a device does. Here's the honest version: when
this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We
offer equipment for every business need, but the right machine depends on your specific workflow.
Best fit
Pick this if...
You run a department of 30-100 people that needs A3/SRA3 (12x18) color in-house but doesn't need Flow workflow extras.
You print 8,000-20,000 pages a month, mostly basic scan-to-network and copy.
You already run an HP fleet on Web JetAdmin or HP Command Center and want a Managed device that drops in.
You need enterprise-grade security (HP Wolf, Sure Start BIOS self-heal, Common Criteria) for legal, healthcare, finance, or government work.
You want a lower per-page cost than the Flow E87740z by skipping features you won't use.
Works fine
You'll be happy if...
You print 20,000-40,000 pages a month — the machine handles it; consider stepping up to the E87750dn (50 ppm) or higher.
You want wireless but didn't budget for it — the Jetdirect 3100w accessory adds Wi-Fi/NFC for around $200.
You're replacing a Konica C658 or Canon iR-ADV C5560 — operators learn the 10.1" HP touchscreen in 2-3 weeks.
You need finishing — the inner finisher, booklet finisher, or stapler/stacker bolt on, but plan for the footprint.
Look elsewhere
Skip this if...
You scan stacks of mixed-size originals constantly — the dn ADF runs at 90 ppm / 180 ipm, not the 300 ipm of the Flow z model. If scanning is half your job, get the E87740z.
You need embedded OCR, reverse-and-retry double-feed handling, or HP Workpath — those are Flow-only features.
You don't need SRA3 (12x18) — the cheaper E78635dn covers 11x17 at lower cost and footprint.
You print under 5,000 pages a month — you're paying for a production-class A3/SRA3 color MFP and using maybe 5% of it.
You don't have an HP managed print contract — the W9170-W9173MC managed toner cartridges are sold through contract channels, not retail.
Full specifications
Every spec, no guessing
The HP Color LaserJet Managed MFP E87740dn is the entry-speed (40-ppm) configuration of the E877dn production series — the non-Flow A3/SRA3 (12x18) color floor-standing MFP for departments of 30-100 users that need real production color and HP enterprise security at a lower price than the equivalent Flow z model. It prints and copies at 40 ppm in both black and color (21 ppm at A3), scans at 90 ppm / 180 ipm duplex via a 200-sheet single-pass ADF, and is rated for a 180,000-page monthly duty cycle with HP recommending up to 60,000 pages/month for sane toner economics. Standard paper capacity is 1,140 sheets across three trays, expandable to 6,140 with the optional 2,000 or 3,000-sheet HCI tray. The 10.1-inch color touchscreen handles standard scan-to-network, USB, and SharePoint workflows. HP Wolf Security (Sure Start BIOS, run-time intrusion detection, Memory Shield) is the reason most of our legal, healthcare, and finance customers pick this over the Konica or Canon equivalents. The dn vs Flow z difference: the z model has 300 ipm scan, embedded OCR, reverse-and-retry double-feed handling, full keyboard, and HP Workpath. The dn skips those for a noticeably lower price. The thing buyers regret: speccing the 40-ppm dn when they actually run 30,000+ pages a month — at that volume, the speed jump to 50 or 60 ppm changes the daily experience. Don't undersize this one.

How you can buy this printer
Buy it, lease it, or just reorder supplies
Three ways to get this printer, each priced to match how you actually use it. Most
small offices lease because toner and maintenance are bundled. If you know what you need, buy
outright. If you already own one, just reorder supplies.
Final lease rate depends on term length, credit profile, and bundled supplies. Outright purchase and
supplies pricing varies with bundled warranty, install packages, and order volume. Request a quote for
exact pricing.
