Q: Does it come with ink or do you have to buy it
A: Yes it comes with ink but it's just a starter set. But if you sign up for their ink program they will mail you ink with 2 days. It's very cheap and the printer comes with 3 free months
A: Good question. Yes, this printer has single cartridge mode where you can use just one cartridge to print if one cartridge is out of ink. You have to remove the empty cartridge in order for single cartridge mode to work. This printer has 1 black cartridge and 1 tricolor cartridge. I hope this helps.
A: This printer has a couple of options for scanning. It does have a flatbed scanner. You can also load a sheet of paper on the collapsible top tray and it will feed in once you choose to scan from the top tray. Also, to make your life a whole lot simpler, when you download the drivers from the HP website, be sure and download the software for this printer. You can scan multiple documents and compile them into one PDF file. It makes everything so much simpler.
Q: Is this printer compatible with Windows 10?
A: Yes, this is compatible with Windows 10.
Q: How complicated is the wireless set up?
A: I don't think so. I am a novice at techy things and was worried about setting it up on my own but it was so easy. Just followed step by step and it was done.
Q: connectivity
A: If you elect to turn the wireless feature on, you can connect to the printer both via USB cable and wireless. Your best option, although somewhat technical, is to set up your printer as a network printer and then you can connect via all your devices. Additionally, with this option, when your friends or family come over, they will be able to connect and print a lot easier with your permission.
Q: Which ink cartridge does this use?
A: The prointer uses HP 63 Black Ink Cartridge (~190 pages); HP 63 Tri-color Ink Cartridge (~165 pages); HP 63XL Black Ink Cartridge (~480 pages); HP 63XL Tri-color Ink Cartridge (~330 pages).
Q: Will this printer receive a fax from a dedicated fax line?
A: Yes, the printer can reieve faxes from a dedicated fax line.

I've had the printer for 3 weeks, and it performs well so far. I rarely use color, but printing quality is as expected. I only print documents and mailing labels, no photo printing so I can't review on that. Size is larger than I need but performs well. I would recommend if needed for occasional printing. Ink cartridges that came with the printer are not full cartridges but enough to get you through order time for new ones. Ive printed less than 25 docs so far, I did order new cartridges to have on hand. I did not do the autoship program, just bought them myself. The wifi connected easily, and I did not experience the same issues with connectivity that others expressed. Ive been able to print from all my devices, desktop computer and laptop are connected through HP Smart, 2 cell phones and 2 tablets as well, one that is old and has no updates or support is also connected to printer and prints easily. I have no complaints and it works well for my needs.

After much research and review reading I settled on this printer. Now I will say that it's a little bigger than I initially anticipated. However I really appreciate it. It's wireless first off, which means less wires connecting and getting in the way. I can even print from my phone which is awesome. The initial setup did take me a while but after that its just click click and done. One really nice thing about this printer is the loading tray and lead for when the paper is coming out. First off it loads from the back in a vertical direction. That sounds like it would take a lot of upward space but I can assure you it does not. Also I like how the ending tray for when the printed paper comes out folds away. For my personal purposes I think it's perfect as I print a few papers a week. receipts, forms and other personal things I like to have a hard copy for. This doesn't seem like it would be ideal for a business though. Overall I would highly recommend for someone to have at home. it's a simple and lovely addition that keeps me organized in my paper work. Also should add that you can print even if you are not on the same wifi as the printer so long as you connect to the printer by linking your email with google cloud print as thats what I use.
