COLOR LASERJET 178NW
Multiple users, one small printer: the COLOR LASERJET 178NW was HP's early-2020s answer for shared household color. Network and wireless built in, color output in a compact box — set it up once, let everyone print.
It uses HP's 117A color set — W2070A black, then W2071A through W2073A. Four cartridges, four colors, no sharing required.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the COLOR LASERJET 178NW take W2070A cartridges?
Your COLOR LASERJET 178NW is designed for W2070A, W2071A, W2072A, and W2073A; any cartridge carrying one of those codes will fit.
Can I replace just one cartridge in the COLOR LASERJET 178NW?
Yes. The COLOR LASERJET 178NW uses separate cartridges (W2070A, W2071A, W2072A, and W2073A), and each slot is independent — swap just the empty color and leave the other three in the COLOR LASERJET 178NW.
My COLOR LASERJET 178NW's prints look light — is the cartridge the problem?
Usually, yes. A nearly empty W2070A is the top cause of light prints from the COLOR LASERJET 178NW; rocking the cartridge can help temporarily, but a replacement W2070A is the real fix when the COLOR LASERJET 178NW's pages stay pale.
