    This is a great printer - no cartridges!

    Highly impressed with HP. This is a polished product. The instructions are excellent and mostly intuitive. The tiny screen on the printer isn't very useful but does show relevant info. But their mobile app makes it redundant as you can do everything in the app. I like the controls which light up nice and bright. I don't like loading blank paper from the rear. But is a very small annoyance. Even aesthetically this is a fine product. The curves are precise and the white and black paint are textured to not show finger prints. It is compact and has a modern look without being ugly. It is a clean design. The tank system is simply wonderful. The refills are super simple to perform. There's no way to make a mess. The bottles click into place and fill the reservoirs automatically. No squeezing. The printer came with a large black bottle and three color bottles. The color bottles fill the reservoirs once. The black bottle fills the reservoir twice. I'm not sure how long they last as I just bought it. The print quality is great. I printed a photo on just plain typing paper and is is quite good. It's nice enough to hang on the fridge. To frame a photo I would need to use some good photo paper. It printed the photo in full 8.5x11 remotely from my phone really fast. I went with the default settings in the HP app. I'm sure it would take longer to print in a higher quality mode. But the app was really easy. It has a gallery browser that lets you look by date or album (folder). I attached photos showing how I have it set up and of a printed photo on plain typing paper. In summary, if you want to take the leap into buying a printer that doesn't use cartridges, this is a GREAT place to start you search. Best Buy had a ton of different tank printers of a huge price range. I got the HP because it is compatible with Linux and their mobile apps are FAR better than the competition.

    Super durable and reliable printer!!

    Been using this printer for about a year now, printing work documents and other projects and it still works great. Its super reliable and durable, and I am saving so much more ink than i did with the cartridge printers!! Def recommend the switch to bottled ink printers!!

    Good printer with bang for your buck

    I needed a printer badly as my little junior college can’t seem to keep the library printers serviceable. This is a Nice printer. A little quirky and I had to reinstall all the software after the first installation because the printer queue kept stalling with print jobs. But it seems okay now. The print tray where the printed product comes out is meager and flimsy as well. But now that everything is set up and installed it seems to be good. I’m also quite impressed with ink useabe. I have printed out A TON of stuff with finals and all this last two weeks and the ink level is still respectable. So that’s pretty nice. I don’t know what the free ink for three years promotion was when I bought this but nothing has ever popped up to sign up for that so it does not appear that deal is legit if it’s still listed on the sale as having that perk.

    Very good printer option

    A great printer, very good quality prints - im running my business off of this call me old school but a wired option to print would be the only improvement. SOMETIMES I "send" a print job and have to wait up to 5 minutes for it to begin. sometimes its instant.

Questions & Answers
  • I print maybe once a month or every other month. Will this printer give me ink drying out or any problems with my rare printing occurrences?

    Thank you for the question. Tank printers don't have cartridges, and when the tanks are closed, the ink won't dry out. However, ink inside the printhead or ink delivery tubes may change viscosity with low use. To ensure the health of the printheads and ink delivery system, it's a good idea to print one page each week or so and keep the printer powered on at all times so that it can perform cleaning cycles when necessary.
