HP LaserJet Enterprise 5501dn Driver Download

The HP LaserJet Enterprise 5501dn Driver lets the computer identify this print-only model and send jobs to it correctly. A local computer can use the USB connection, while office systems can reach the printer over the wired network. After installation, page settings and print commands pass to the machine without the communication faults caused by a missing or incompatible driver. Scanning, copying, and fax controls are not part of the software because the hardware is built only for printing.

HP LaserJet Enterprise 5501dn Specifications

The HP LaserJet Enterprise 5501dn is a monochrome laser printer with no scanner, copier, or fax hardware. Processing comes from a 1.4 GHz dual-core chip backed by 2 GB of memory and 8 GB of eMMC storage. A 2.7-inch colour graphics LCD provides access to local settings. Printing relies on one black HP 159-series toner cartridge.

A4 documents print at up to 50 pages per minute, rising to 52 pages per minute on Letter paper. From ready mode, the first A4 page can emerge in about 4.1 seconds. Resolution reaches 1200 x 1200 dpi, and automatic duplexing takes care of supported two-sided jobs. HP rates the machine for as many as 150,000 pages in a month, though its recommended range is 2,500 to 12,500 pages.

Regular paper loads into a 550-sheet cassette, while the 100-sheet multipurpose feeder takes smaller or less frequently used stock. That front feeder is also the route for envelopes, postcards, labels, cardstock, and transparencies. Paper sizes vary by feed point, ranging from A6 up to Oficio. Finished pages collect in a 250-sheet output bin, so long jobs may need to be removed before every loaded sheet has printed. Extra feeders and a separate envelope feeder can be added when the standard arrangement is not enough.

A nearby computer can connect through Hi-Speed USB 2.0, and Gigabit Ethernet places the printer on a wired network. Both USB device and host ports are fitted. Wireless printing requires the optional HP Jetdirect 3200w accessory, which adds Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Direct, and Bluetooth functions. AirPrint and Mopria can then send jobs from compatible mobile devices. With its trays closed, the chassis measures 400 x 400 x 305 mm and weighs 11.8 kg with toner installed. HP recorded 552.4 watts during printing in its 115-volt test.
