HP - ENVY 5055 All-in-One Instant Ink Ready Printer - Black

The 5055 is a fairly small desktop printer, It can crank out about 7 pages a minute depending on the quality setting. Setting up is very easy, first I downloaded the app and turned on the Printer. I followed about 4 steps (complete with video) and the printer was connected to my wireless, Setting up the printer on my PC and laptop was much easier after having used the phone app (I would suggest this) Accessing the link 123.hp.com put in your printer model and within a few clicks, you are good to go. When choosing the software to download, I would use the recommended or the bare minimum install. The software that comes with it is extremely watered down and not very powerful, it will get you going, but you may want to find an image manipulator and PDF creator. I sent a test print set on draft and the quality was exceptional, then I sent a picture and tried to use included software, which was not very user friendly. I was not able to crop or sharpen or get multiple shots to fit on a page (as I should have) but this is not a game stopper. The quality of the photo I printed on matte was again very exceptional. So much so we now have it framed. Scanning is fairly fast too and accurate as far as colors. Copy and print are just as good and very easy. Printing from the phone is a little harder for users, but is no harder than any other phone print software. You just have to find out how to get to the print screen and it prints instantly and accurately. Over all I am very pleased with all aspects of this printer. Ink is very affordable whether you purchase it at the store or get on the instant ink program (never run out of ink). This program can be set up initially when installing the printer. They have plans from free (15 pages a month) to $9.99 a month (300 pages a month). There are no commitments and you can change your plan at any time. On average they say it will save you up to 50% on ink costs. Not a bad deal. I would recommend this to family and friends (especially those who are not good at setting up computer peripherals)

Set up was super easy. Just plug in and follow step by step instructions on touchscreen and app. You're forced to sign up for Instant Ink which could be really annoying (like some other reviews mention).. but I'm only using it for light printing which is considered 15 pages or less per month. While you do have to enter credit card info, this specific option is free. We'll see how it goes.. After reading negative reviews about Instant Ink, I actually ordered a separate HP black ink cartridge. Supposedly the ink cartridges that come with the printer have special sensors that send HP info about usage, thus forcing you into the Instant Ink scheme. And if you cancel your Instant Ink plan you're no longer able to use those cartridges. Research shows that cartridges purchased separately will allow you to print as normal.

I have to thank the young salesman that showed me different prints and answered all my questions. I was surprised how easy it was to install, its wireless with only the power cord to connect, my wife started using it almost immediately, because it was easy to connect the computers to the printer and no wires

Great all in one printer. Setup was very easy, you can do it via the Android or iOS app or using a computer. I used the android app to setup my printer on my network, then I used the utility downloaded from their website to setup my PC. All was easy and after setting network settings, the printer prints an alignment page, that you have to scan to align the heads and you're good to go. Printing is fast and only requires two cartridges (one black and one color), which is a plus, I had a canon printer before that required like 5 cartridges. You can sign up for HP's insta print service that sends you cartridges automatically when you're low, there is a free one tier, which I chose. Printing quality is great and prints fast, I also tried the scanner and it scans fast. In all, a great all in one for a home or small home office!

This printer was easy to set-up to WiFi and prints from our Apple mobile devices flawlessly. I was initially concerned about the HP Instant Ink Program, which I did not wish to use but was able to opt out easily during the set-up process, and never bugged again about it. Nice quality copies, two-sided printing, and ease of use makes this a great printer for our needs.

the printer of HP ENVY 5055 not only looks very beautiful but its weight just fits my desire, not too heavy, and the most important thing is that its function is just really excellent. all in all I love it very much.......

I am an HP fan. Bought this for my mother and she uses it without a hitch. Perfect knitting pattern prints everyday:)

I love this printer. The touchscreen is quite convenient; it makes it so much easier to figure out. It does everything except my dishes. I am able to send faxes, even, that is something I didn't know when I was bought it. I am very pleased with the purchase. The automatic ink subscription is fantastico.
