Good printer for home office. Good quality printing. Easy set up.

This is the worst printer I have ever owned. It is very disappointing because the one previous to this I had for about 14 years and it was HP. It worked like a charm until I think the Wi-Fi got too advanced for it and it just didn’t always air print. So I searched through the reviews and did a bunch of research to buy this one. I’m so disappointed because when I got it, I almost returned it that day because it wouldn’t set up. You set this up on an app and it does it wirelessly versus pressing any buttons on the actual printer. I tried for about two hours and it just wasn’t working well Then all of a sudden I finally had a breakthrough and got it to set up. However, from that point on it was touch and go on whether it was going to actually print from my iPhone or my iPad. I had a good run where I didn’t have many problems at one point. I would occasionally have to unplug it, power it off and reset the Wi-Fi, but that generally would make it print again. However, over the last couple months, it just stopped working and then I spent four hours on the phone with product support. This printer only has like a one year warranty and so I knew that in a couple months I wouldn’t be able to call to get support on it not printing. I just don’t have the time to sit there and try to make this printer work. The second guy I got on the phone said that it was my Wi-Fi service and I needed to contact my Internet provider to get help. However, I’ve never heard of such a thing because everything else that I have that is Wi-Fi works completely fine. I basically have a smart home with over 80 devices attached to the Internet. This is the only one that doesn’t function properly. So… The only thing that doesn’t work consistently is this printer. I got so frustrated that I boxed this thing up, and I put it in the donation pile to send to paralyzed veterans. I then bought a competing brand which oh by the way is working perfectly and printed right off the bat. It also set up like a charm. I read some other reviews to see if other people had problems with printing from my iPhone and iPad. It looks like over the reviews online that this problem I was experiencing is not just one that I had. It may be the Internet provider or it could be the actual compatibility with iPhone and iPad products. I am not sure exactly because you don’t get all that information in the reviews of others to be able to distinguish if it’s just one factor. I have AT&T as an Internet provider and I can tell you that I had real troubles with this particular model. I know that I set up the Wi-Fi 1 million times. I also defaulted it back to the original settings. I deleted the app. I reinstalled the app. I let it be unplugged. I did everything trying to make this work. I spent probably 40 hours or more trying to get this printer to work so take this information as you would like to make an informed decision for yourself. I’m trying to save others from wasting their money on this printer.

Love This Printer – Fast, Easy, and Super Reliable This printer has been a total win for me! Setup was simple, the wireless connection works great, and the print quality is sharp every single time. Scanning and copying are fast and clear, and honestly—it’s taken so much frustration out of everyday printing. Totally worth it!

A nice reliable all in one printer. Very easy to set up wirelessly.

Good printer however not as easy to install because connection did not happen as described in instructions for a wireless connection. Needed to call for assistance and got AI assist instead of live person. Finally got printer working as it should wirelessly.

While this printer is very nice, it seems that it favors Windows computers and was a real hassle to set up on my mac. I have parallels installed on my computer for windows applications, but only a few of them print on this machine. I love it and most things print, but I may need professional help to get it to print on the Windows stuff since it is set up for Mac.

1-I started to print a 57-pg document. Alerted that B and C cartridges were low and may not have sufficient ink to finish the print jobs. M and Y were fine, according to HPSmart. So I canceled print job, installed new cartridges, and tried to start print job again. But the first print job was stuck in queue. Said it was being deleted, but that went on forever. Instructions said to turn off printer, unplug, then replug to clear queue. That didn't work. I turned off printer again, unplugged it, reset the router, and restarted my computer. Queue cleared, and I started printing 57 pages again. Got down to the last 2 pages, and it just stopped. No explanation. I saw that M and Y cartridges now were out of ink, so I replaced them. I again had to turn off, unplug, reset, restart, replug, turn on printer. I tried to print just the first 2 pages, but it simply would not print. Stuck in queue. Turn off, unplug, reset, restart, replug, turn on printer. Tried again to print first 2 pages. Nothing. Turn off, unplug, reset, restart, replug, turn on printer. This happened about 6 times before I gave up. 2-You pay for a year of instant ink, built into the price of the printer. You got it whether you want it or not. It isn't based on how much ink you use, it's based on how many pages you print. Which makes no sense except to the HP people whose job it is to get as much money from you as possible. Instant Ink is a gimmick. It would be silly to not play along for the first year, but it would be silly to pay for it after that. I get 300 trial pages plus 100 pages per month, plus rollover pages if I don't use the full 100. You'd think HP would apply current pages to the trial pages first, rollover pages second, and current month pages last. Nope. HP in its infinite wisdom applies current printing to current month pages, then rollover, then trial. Nothing HP does makes sense from the customer's perspective. It's all for the benefit of HP. 3-I got this unit for the fax machine primarily, so I will keep it. But I have come to despise HP. There's nothing like an expensive HP printer to make you appreciate an inexpensive Canon printer.

This is a good replacement for my work needs However it does print slower than my old printer

Took a bit to set up, but a great printer all in all.

Excellent home office printer

Perfect for what I need.
