HP - Envy 6155 Wireless All-in-One Inkjet Printer, Scanner, Copier, AI-Enabled with 3 Months of Instant Ink - White

The HP Envy 6155 came well packaged, with handholds on each side that make the box easy and comfortable to carry — a small detail, but one that shows thoughtful design. Setup is straightforward. The quick start guide is clear, simple, and easy to follow. The printer itself has a large, bright display positioned at just the right angle, making it easy to read during setup and everyday use. For installation, the printer gives you the option to scan a QR code or visit a website to complete setup and install the software and ink. The QR code didn’t work, so I switched to my phone. While I would have preferred to complete the entire setup directly on the printer, the mobile installation process was excellent — clean visuals, clear instructions, and very easy to follow. After that, I had to download additional HP software to connect the printer to Wi‑Fi. It wasn’t difficult, but it did feel like more steps than necessary. Once everything was up and running, the performance was solid. Print quality is good, colors are accurate, and the speed is perfectly acceptable for home use. I printed four full‑color labels, and they came out crisp and clean. Overall, the HP Envy 6155 delivers good print quality and an easy setup experience, with just a few extra steps that could be streamlined. It’s a reliable choice for everyday printing needs. I also like the HP Ink option - a monthly service and they send you ink when needed.

For small footprint the HP 6155 does a good bit. Print, Copy, & Scan in a space that's not much bigger than a unit that only prints. The minimal design makes it blend in background without being too gaudy or with too many flashy lights. My daughter pretty much snatched the printer from me as soon as I got it set up. Connecting to wifi was easy and we had our first print in under 30 minutes. Windows is the main OS that will be feeding documents to the printer and there really wasn't any I had to do. After putting the printer on the network, windows saw it and I added it. Bam! Print out 2 minutes later. Print quality is pretty good. Not as crisp on with text as a laser, but still pretty good. On standard 20# paper there wasn't much bleeding and just a bit of overspray. Excellent for an inkjet. The test print was a maze to show how it handled solid lines, text, and minor graphics. While a bit slow it wasn't overly so. If we did black and white it would have bumped the speed a bit, but not a whole lot. So far we're pretty happy with the printer and look forward to putting it to some real use.

The HP Envy 6155 is HP’s latest entry level inkjet printer to be released by HP. It is exactly the same as the other HP Envy 6155e save for one feature or rather limitation but let me explain that later. To start with, the HP 6155 is a basic printer scanner combo. But unlike other printers in its class, it has a sleeker form factor. First, it is thinner than most similar printers which makes it look sleeker in my opinion. It does not have a back fed auto sheet feeder but rather in front. For me I prefer this over my HP 4200 as the 6155 simply looks cleaner that way. HP claims the printer can load 100 pages. But in reality, that would really depend on the paper used. HP printer uses 20lb paper. However, I use 24lb paper, so really your mileage may vary but in that is just negligible. Setup is pretty simple. The power switch is located at the back and there is a USB port for those who want a wired connection but there is no cable included. But then again most HP printers are now wi-fi enabled. To setup the HP 6155 has a colored touch screen often found in higher models such as the 8100 series and not like my b/w screen in my HP4200. Unlike older models that rely on 2.4Ghz, the 6155 is dual band which makes setup a breeze. Of course, you would need to download also the HP Smart app from either the Windows or Apple Stores. There is also the legacy HP app available from HP, but that really adds bloatware for most Windows computers. HP’s Smart App is fine. As for print quality, output is at par with higher end models. Print speeds are up to 10 ppm in b/w and 7 ppm for colored. But obviously if you’re printing full page pictures, printing is slower. But unlike other entry level printers, it can do borderless and back-to-backprinting, something my HP 4200 can’t handle. The HP 6155 uses two cartridges – one black and one colored. Now some would prefer individual colored ink cartridges as obvious some colors would run out first. But if you subscribe HP’s Instant Ink program, this wouldn’t be a problem as once your ink starts to run low, you’ll already be sent a replacement cartridge. And this model comes with a free three month trial of Instant Ink. Now as to the difference between the 6155 and the 6155e, I have read elsewhere that the later is limited by HP+ features which in reality limits the printer to HP original ink. But if you subscribe to Instant Ink, this is moot. As for the the AI features, it’s mostly enabled most for wi-fi enabled HP printers. Personally, I really haven’t used AI features since it came save for cleaning scanned documents. Overall, this is a solid entry level printer.

I haven’t had a printer for many years. Never really needed one and my best friend( roommate ) had an old one that had to be hard wired to his desktop computer. Unfortunately it stopped working properly recently and I have been having to ask people at one of my work sites to print me a few different forms. But mainly they were Amazon return labels. I didn’t want to continue to bother them, so I decided to give this wireless printer a try. So far it’s been great with no issues. Set up was very easy and done in about 10 minutes after signing into the hp app. It will automatically detect the printer and set everything up for you. Pretty straightforward and I’m sure people who aren’t tech savvy will appreciate the easy process. When setting up it will ask you to align the printer, print a copy and help you with the scanning part of the printer. All together took 15 minutes max. Prints come out clear and vibrant. Air printing works amazingly, now I don’t have to have it connected right next to my Pc. I can place anywhere in the house and the whole family can access it easily. This model comes with 3 free months of “instant ink” though we do not need that option as we will not use it as often as others. So we declined that offer. You can use the 2 ink cartridges that comes with it and just replace as needed. Great news as you aren’t stuck with something you do not need. But yes it works well, looks nice and is wireless. You really can’t ask for much more. Only issue I have is that to my understanding you can only use HP ink and no 3rd party brands. While I get why they do this. I like being able to have the option. But the prices of the blank and color inks are not very expensive. So that’s fine. Also I’d say the msrp is reasonable but try to get it on sale if possible.

HP has been in printing industry for decades and I have been using HP since the 90's. Anyway back to this printer the HP ENVY 6155. Box was pretty low carbon footprint. Plastic bag is recyclable. Most of the packing is cardboard except the foam glass protector and the tape to secure the printer. Setup was super duper easy. Pull printer out. Unpacked, powered on, installed the app, follow step by step instructions on the app. It comes with 3 months of free ink. I signed up for the free ink. If you don't have an HP account you will need to sign up so you can proceed. Size is small size for a multi function and small room use. Touch as screen is easy to use. Print speed is decent. Color and detailed print is good. Scanning and copying is straight forward. No document feeder so you have to feed individual pages 1 at a time. App use is easy. They use a combination of web based and app based interface. Color is modern white sleek look Solid small home or room printer. Great buy. Would recommend.
