Wi-Fi Direct is a registered trademark of Wi-Fi Alliance®. Overall, the HL-L8260CDW's output quality isn't quite as good as the HP M452dw, but not in a way that should disadvantage it. The HL-L8260CDW has a substantial edge in text quality, which is slightly below average for the M452dw. They both have excellent graphics, with a slight edge going to the HP. The HL-L8260CDW's photo quality falls short of the M452dw's. In general, photo printing is less of a priority for offices than text or graphics, but businesses that need high-quality photos (say, for real-estate handouts) may be better off choosing the HP M452dw. Text is the staple of office printing, though, and the HL-L8260CDW has a clear edge here. And although its graphics aren't quite as stellar as the M452dw's, they should still be fine for basic marketing materials. Running Costs

With photos, I noticed posterization—a tendency for abrupt shifts in tone where they should be gradual—in several prints, and also some dithering (graininess). A monochrome photo had a slight tint. There was often a slight loss of detail in bright areas. Printer Set-up You’re the expert at running your business, we’re the experts at running your printer.
