Laser printing is the basis of the HP M1132 MFP. The main scope of its application is the office. That is, with its help, the most frequencies display text, tables and simple graphics. But it is problematic to print monochromatic pictures or photographs with its help and in high-quality performance. It is about this universal peripheral solution that will be discussed later.
Device positioning. Pick list
The monthly limit of M1132 MFP is 8000 pages per month. That is, this is a typical representative of the budget, most affordable segment. This device is able to work as a printer, and as a scanner, and as a copy machine. But there is no question of supporting fax mode in this case.

Power consumption for various modes can reach the following values:
- The off state is 0.3 watts.
- Energy Saving - 1 Watt.
- Standby - 3.2 watts.
- Copying or scanning - 265 watts.
- In the case of printing, this device consumes 375 watts.
The list of communications includes only one connection method, which is limited to the USB port.
Order of setting. Brief instruction
A very simple algorithm for setting up the M1132 MFP. The instruction consists of the following steps:
- Extracting a workflow system.
- Her assembly.
- Removing transport mounts.
- Installing the MFP next to the host PC.
- Connecting the device to the power supply system and the control computer.
- Turn on the PC and MFP.
- At the end of the initialization of all components of this system, the drivers are installed on the computer and all the necessary software.
- Rebooting the control system.
- Test page output.
After all these steps, the MFP is configured and ready to use.
Owner reviews. Cost. List of possible errors
At the moment, such a device can be bought for 7,000-7,500 rubles. This is a fully justified price tag for such a device.
The advantages of this peripheral system include the following:
- Performance.
- A simple and, of course, understandable setup procedure, which everyone can handle without any problems.
- Profitability.
- In the process of functioning, you only need to buy toner. It is also necessary to update the firmware of the device or you will have to use resetting chips on the cartridge.
- High level of functionality of the solution in question.
- Availability in the delivery list of a text recognition system Readiris PRO 11.
The disadvantages of this workflow subsystem are as follows:
- Mediocre print quality due to the technology used.
- The minimum set of communications.
- Lack of support for the fax function, which in office conditions can be very popular.
This is exactly how the owners characterize the hero of this review in the reviews.
During operation, the following HP LaserJet M1132 MFP printer errors may occur:

- E5 - the device is not able to pick up paper.
- E6-E9 - critical errors, for the elimination of which it is necessary to contact the service center.
Finally
Suitable M1132 MFP for creating small office workflow systems. Its capabilities in this case will be more than enough. Also, such a device is quite worthy of home use. In addition to this, it can also be used in the copy center. That is, this is a universal solution that can be successfully applied practically everywhere. At the same time, the shortcomings that were previously indicated are not so significant and critical.
