Im lookingat getting a new printer and found a great deal of a LaserJet Pro M281cdw but would like to compare it to the 281cdw which seems to be everywhere and what all the reviews are about. Can anyone help me with what the difference between these two models are?

I really couldn't find any remarkable difference between these two models. They seem practically the same.
Theoritically the M281cdw model (T6B83A) should have more functions than the M281fdw (T6B82A) model.
The only differences I found are:
1 page per minute quicker scanning (27 ppm instead of 26 ppm for the fdw model)
5,000 pages more for monthly duty cycle (45,000 instead of 40,000 for the fdw model)
I may miss something
I hope this helps,
Cheers!

Hi Mvanpelt,
I understand that the one printer you want to compare is the HP Laserjet Pro M281cdw:

What is the other one ? Because you are mentioning m281cdw twice, so that must be a typo?
Cheers!
