Hi @kmaclaren,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.  


Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

The HP Color LaserJet Pro M283cdw and M283fdw are both all-in-one color laser printers and the primary difference between the two lies in their features.

 

The "fdw" in M283fdw typically indicates additional features compared to the "cdw" model. The specific features can vary, but the "fdw" models generally include functions such as fax capabilities and possibly other advanced features like a higher paper capacity, automatic document feeder (ADF), or additional connectivity options.

 

To determine which one is better for your needs, consider what features are important to you. If you don't need fax capabilities or other advanced features, the M283cdw might be sufficient for your requirements and could be a more budget-friendly option. On the other hand, if you require additional functionalities like faxing or other advanced features, the M283fdw might be worth the extra cost.

 

To get the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend checking the product specifications on the official HP website.

 

I hope this helps. 
 

Take care and have a good day.
