HP - OfficeJet Pro 9135 Wireless All-in-One Inkjet Printer, Scanner, Copier, AI-Enabled with 3 Months of Instant Ink - White

This replaces my HP8620 Inkjet Printer that served me well for 11 years. Yes, 11 years! I did extensive research on printers and kept coming back to the 9135. The design of the 9135 is more contemporary than my 8620, and it prints well so far. Extremely easy to connect to my MacBook Pro. I needed support to connect with my wife’s very new Windows laptop. Took a while, but support got me there. And don’t be fooled by label that says Office Jet Pro 9130 in big bold letters. Even the Best Buy manager thought the wrong machine was in the box and sent it to the back room for return. In much smaller font below, we both missed the word “Series” that HP Support ultimately pointed out to me - and I went back to purchase the 9135.

I was looking for a new HP printer to replace my existing model OfficeJet Pro 9015 wireless printer and decided to order the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 Wireless AI-Enabled All-in-One Inkjet printer. I liked that the newest model was loaded with more apps and the HP AI program that can remove unwanted images, ads, or other information from your email it that is what you are printing. I was impressed with this new option since in the many years since I purchased the prior HP model this was a great improvement. I was able to unbox the printer and set it up rather quickly since HP provides clear instructions to set it up along with the programs you can download to your laptop or phone if desired. I knew the issue that would take the most time was setting up the network and then installing the ink cartridges and allowing the machine to calibrate and align the print heads. Fortunately, I have more than one Wi-Fi connection via a modem/router and then a wonderful Wi-Fi broadcaster that sends out the signal for Wi-Fi 7 instead of just 6e. It makes connecting various devices so much easier on 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands used on the printer, but I also use 6ghz for faster broadband results. I liked the fact that the new printer has the same 4.3" color touchscreen like other HP printers and the good feature was that the menus were easy to navigate and made setup and usage easier from the very start. I went ahead and ordered the 3 free months of the Instant Ink subscription since I had a minimal 10 pages a month on my old HP printer and I was able to cancel it while setting the new plan up. I received my first box of ink within a week of signing up and was surprised on how quickly it arrived. The printer has the good 2 methods to scan documents via the sheet feeder or flatbed. It can also duplex print without having any jams and saves paper. I was pleased with the noise level that the printer produced while printing documents. The new feature I have not had before was to setup the printer to email documents to my personal Gmail account. I was glad that I did not have to use the special long email which is a standard optional feature for HP printers. I decided to print out various photos and business presentations I had received via email so I could see how well the color settings worked on the two types of items. I then just used black and white instead of color which is a faster speed per the manufacturer and my own experience of using the brand for many years. I like the printer that has Built-in HP Wolf Pro Security that uses a powerful suite of customizable tools that boost security and helps keep networks protected against cyber threats and malware. I remembered seeing the HP Wolf security on prior HP laptops I have had over the many years.

I’ve been using the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e for a week and it has exceeded my expectations as a home office and small-business printer. Setup was straightforward, and the dual-band Wi-Fi connected quickly without the constant disconnects I’ve experienced with previous printers. Print quality is really good for both everyday printing documents and powerpoint presentations. Text comes out crisp and clear and the color graphics are sharp. The automatic duplex printing and duplex scanning features are must haves to save paper and doesn’t bleed through. Just make sure to get multi-purpose paper. Also, I have printed 30 to 50 page documents in que and never experienced paper jams. Just made sure to remove the paper when the paper holder gets full. The dual paper trays are another standout feature, allowing me to keep different paper types loaded and ready to go. The AI-enhanced printing tools and HP Smart app make printing from my phone and laptop incredibly convenient. I also appreciate the large touchscreen, which is responsive and easy to navigate. No printer is perfect. The unit is larger than some home printers, and genuine HP ink can be expensive if you print heavily. However, the speed, reliability, security features, and all-in-one functionality more than make up for those drawbacks. Overall, the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e is a powerful, feature-rich printer that delivers fast performance, excellent print quality, and business-class capabilities at a reasonable price. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable all-in-one printer for a home office or small business.

I have setup a few business printers and its always brutal, usually takes hours to get everything set up correctly and working. This is not the case with the OfficeJet Pro 9135, its the small business printer that is easy to set up and does everything a small business would want/need. Setup: The setup is a breeze, there are QR codes with instruction videos and even printed instructions. The setup took a little under 15 mins including setting up an HP account and configuring print for multiple users. The printer screen even shows how to videos, so you don’t have to go search for them online. Build: Build quality is never a topic when it comes to printers, most of the time they feel/sound like cheap plastic, not the case with the 9135. When removing the paper trays or even lifting scanner area everything is smooth and has a gliding feel to it and when trays close there is a nice satisfying click. Performance: The performance of the 9135 is excellent, the moment I hit print it starts printing so there is very little latency even through WiFi. The printer connects via ethernet of 2.4 and 5 ghz bands and there were no issues connecting to the network. The scanner portion of the 9135 is excellent and allows you to get 1200 DPI for fine detail scans, this is one of the highest I have seen in a small business printer/scanner combo. The prints come out great and ridiculously fast, please look at the test print photo which printed in 2 seconds. The color is great and the text are sharp even when using “normal” quality for the print details. Software: This is where the HP excels, the software is excellent. By signing up for a HP account (no cost) you get access to the cloud where you can send all scanned photos, in case you don’t want to scan them to a centralized location such as a NAS. With the HP account you can also email scans without any additional setup besides the HP account. You can send prints when away from the office and even print free content for the kids. The app is beautifully designed and flows well. You can give permissions to others to print while away. The app is fully loaded even allowing you to scan documents when you’re not near the printer and edit them as needed before sending them to print. Negatives: The only issue I ran into was when I scanned documents to the cloud, I was unable to download them on my smartphone, not sure if this issue with the HP cloud or just the app however I could not get this to work. The 9135 is a new age small business printer, it is simple to setup and use without needing a tech to install. Everything on the app is fluid and the touchscreen on the printer is bright and responsive. The 2 feeder trays are excellent for people that have different size/format papers and they hold enough pages so you’re not always running to refill. This is one of, if not , the simplest full featured small business printer on the market.

I run a small business that would be considered an LLC mostly for marketing. The previous printers did well for one off small projects. However, when I need to do multiple prints or flyers or something that’s gonna take 30 minutes in detail to print and in various forms, I feel like this is where I’m able to put this printer to the test straight out of the box. It was packaged safely, so I didn’t worry about anything being broke all of the trays rotate so once I un taped everything I made sure to put very few pages in the tray and not to weigh them down. I also was able to install the ink, but you must plug it in and turn it on for the ink tray to move to an area that you can click the print cartridges in. After that, I peeled off the screen tape and made sure that the copy glass was clean. In packaging, they install a small film of foam to make sure that it doesn’t get scratched and once I made a copier too, I realize that it was clean and free of scratches. So after printing a few things and get the test print out I was able to print my address on a few envelopes made a couple of flyers and printed a couple of documents. They all came out perfectly and I could print it walk away come back and it would be ready to go overall I think this is a great business and or personal printer.
