A full A3 colour multifunction printer built for departments with serious print demands. Starting at 40 ppm in full colour — upgradeable to 70 ppm via speed licence — with a monthly duty cycle reaching 300,000 pages and HP Wolf Security running continuously in the background.
Product Overview
Full A3 Colour at Department Scale
The HP Color LaserJet Managed MFP E877dn is an A3-capable colour multifunction printer designed for departments that produce high volumes of colour output — proposals, financial reports, marketing materials, presentations — and need that output to be consistent, fast, and professionally finished every time.
The device ships with a base print speed of 40 ppm in both black and colour, with a standard paper input of 1,140 sheets across three trays and a maximum configuration of 6,140 sheets. That input capacity keeps the printer running through peak periods without requiring constant attention from staff. The 200-sheet ADF handles scanning and copying jobs on the same unit, with duplex scanning supported in a single pass.
The E877dn is a Managed device, which means print speed is not fixed at purchase. HP's speed licensing model allows organisations to upgrade from 40 ppm to 50, 60, or 70 ppm through a software licence — no hardware replacement required. This gives IT and procurement teams a straightforward way to plan for growth without committing to a higher-spec device upfront.
The 10.1-inch colour touchscreen provides a tablet-style interface for print, copy, scan, and optional fax workflows. HP FutureSmart firmware keeps the device current with remote updates, and HP Web JetAdmin provides centralised management across the fleet.

The Numbers That Matter
Security
Multi-Layer Protection, Always Running
The E877dn runs HP Wolf Enterprise Security as standard — a multi-layer security architecture built around the principle that threats need to be detected, stopped, and recovered from automatically, not just flagged for IT to investigate after the fact.
Each security layer operates independently, so a compromise in one does not cascade into the others:
HP Sure Start
Checks the BIOS firmware integrity at every boot. If tampering or corruption is detected, the device reverts automatically to a known-good state without requiring IT intervention.
Runtime Intrusion Detection
Common Criteria certified. Continuously monitors memory activity during operation and stops attacks in real time. This layer is active whether the device is printing, idle, or in sleep mode.
Network Traffic Inspection
All outgoing network connections are inspected to stop suspicious requests and thwart malware before they leave the device — keeping the printer from being used as a pivot point into the broader network.
HP Memory Shield
An embedded hardware-level feature that prevents malware attacks from redirecting the execution flow of programs running on the device.
Colour Output
Professional Colour, Consistently Delivered
The E877dn uses a four-cartridge CMYK system — one cartridge each for black, cyan, magenta, and yellow — delivering full colour output at the same speed as black-only printing at every performance tier. There is no speed penalty for printing in colour.
HP's Custom Color Manager is included as standard, allowing administrators to calibrate colour output to match specific document or device profiles without requiring external colour matching hardware or specialist expertise. For organizations that print client-facing documents, this means output quality is both predictable and repeatable across jobs.
Standard replacement cartridges yield 25,000 pages for black and 22,500 pages per colour. High-yield alternatives double those figures to 50,000 pages for black and 45,000 pages per colour cartridge — reducing the frequency and cost of consumable replacements at high volumes.
Connectivity & Integration
Seamless Integration
Environmental Credentials
Designed with Efficiency in Mind
The E877dn meets the criteria for Energy Star, EPEAT, and Blue Angel certification. Toner cartridges are made with recycled content and the device uses ultra-low melt toner that meets current indoor air quality standards.

Find Out If This Printer Is the Right Fit
The E877dn suits departments printing up to 60,000 pages per month in full colour, where output quality is visible to clients or senior stakeholders and where downtime is not acceptable. But the right configuration — base speed vs. a higher license tier, outright purchase vs. managed print — depends on your specific volumes and budget.
Our team can review your current environment and recommend the right setup, including whether a managed print agreement makes more financial sense than an outright device purchase for your organisation.
