Took it back to the store in less than an hour and I was told just get another one. Your store didn’t have another printer so I got a refund.

Had a great experience purchasing a new wireless printer. Extremely helpful employee helped me select just the right one based on how I use it. Price was just as I had planned on spending.

When I got this printer, I was expecting a little more than what I got. Let's talk about the good. This printer sets up very easily with the downloaded app which walks you step by step through the process. I didn't have any issues there. When I printed an article with photos, the colors were very vibrant and mostly true to what I saw on my screen. This printer also does automatic double sided through the app so you don't have to manually turn the paper over to get that feature. It does it by itself which I really like. The issues, I had are that even if you are printing black and white, this printer is slower than others I've had in the past. The paper try looks like it holds more than it actually does, which was disappointing. The paper scanner on top doesn't hold as many sheets as I thought it would either and even with paper correctly loaded in it, I still could not get it to scan from there and I haven't been able to figure out why. Also, I'm not a fan of the paper catch arm. When printing large photos, the paper bends on this arm even when it's all the way out in the proper position. I definitely wouldn't use it for photos you need to keep flat. This won't work. But other than that this printer is great. It is very quiet.
A Solid Consumer Printer Without Breaking the Bank

The HP Envy 6555e was incredibly easy to set up, and that’s something I really appreciate. With the HP Smart app, I had it up and running in just a few minutes, and I didn’t need any technical know-how. It prints color documents really well, which is important for me since I often need vibrant, clear prints for personal projects. For the price, I was impressed with how fast it prints too—it definitely exceeded my expectations there. One of the biggest perks is the Instant Ink subscription; since my printing is sporadic, it ends up beating the cost of buying ink at the store. Plus, the printer looks sleek on my shelf, which is a bonus in my home office. At its price point, it feels like a really solid choice.
That said, I do have some concerns about the build quality. The materials feel a bit flimsy, and I’m not sure how well it will hold up over time, especially if it gets a lot of use. It’s functional for now, but it doesn’t have that sturdy feel you might want for something you expect to last. I also have mixed feelings about the HP+ program. It offers some useful features, but it comes with strings attached, like signing away rights to use third-party ink. I’m not sure how much I like the idea of being tied to HP’s system that way.
All in all, the HP Envy 6555e works great for my needs right now. It’s fast, prints well, and I love how easy it was to set up. If you print a lot, like I do, Instant Ink is a real money-saver. However, if you’re worried about durability or the restrictions from HP+, it’s something to think about. For me, the convenience and performance outweigh those issues, at least for now.
Pros:
Crazy easy setup with the HP Smart app
Prints color documents well
Fast printing for the price
Instant Ink is still a great deal for those that print a lot
Looks nice on a shelf
Good price point
Cons:
Build quality is questionable
HP+ makes you sign away a lot of rights

The HP Envy 6555e wireless all in one inkjet printer is a great all in 1 inkjet printer for home use. I currently have a laser jet printer in my home office but unfortunately it only prints in black and white and the kids routinely have to print things in color for there homework assignments. Throughout the years no matter what all in one inkjets I buy I always end up with a reliable HP inkjet printer. The set up process was fairly simple with this printer. Following the directions in the included quick set up guide I plugged in the printer and waited for the QR code to appear on the screen. When I was trying to scan the code the printer automatically skipped to the next step which indicated I should install the included ink cartridges. Once this was complete I was able to print the alignment page which was then scanned to ensure the printer heads were properly aligned. Since this skipped the entire wifi setup process I manually entered the Wifi settings and entered the password for my network. Once connected I simply opened the HP app and clicked on add a new printer that was already connected to the network. It quickly located the printer and continued through the final steps of the setup process. Once completed I printed a few test prints wirelessly from my iPhone and laptop without issue. The scanning capability was also great as I lost no details when scanning images. The printer also incudes 3 months of free ink if you subscribe to the HP instant ink program which ensures you always have a new genuine HP cartridge on hand before the current one runs out. Overall considering the app capabilities as well as the printer itself I would not hesitate to recommend this great all in one inkjet for home use

I received the HP Envy 6555e all in one printer to replace a very good, but aging HP 5252. I have always been very happy with the service I received from my 5200 series and I fully expect this printer to live up to that high expectation. The HP Envy 6555 in a more modern version of the printer I had. The interface is extremely easy to use and to navigate with a colorful touchpad. The 6555 prints color, scans and copies with an automatic document feature on the unit. Setup instructions are easy to follow and are relatively quick. The HP Envy 6555e also comes with three months of HP ink as part of your purchase. I have used the HP ink program for over five years, and find it to be a convenient way to make sure you always have available ink cartridges when you need them. By keeping your printer connected to your wifi it will relay how much ink you currently have in your printer and also, how many pages you have printed for the month. There are a number of different plans and pricing so you are sure to find one that fits your style. Print quality is very good as has been the case with all of my HP home printers over the years. This model is realtively compact for such a full featured printer so you can fit it about anywhere you would like. With wireless connectivity, it doesn't really mater where the printer is located as long as it has constant wifi connection. If you like HP printers, this one does a great job at a reasonable price. Just make sure you use HP ink.

To begin, I predominantly use laser printers for my print jobs, so in comparison, any ink jet printer is horribly slow. This particular unit is actually slower than I remember ink jets being. Then again, if you are buying this printer, it is probably not to fill a heavy printing need (more like the periodic print job here or there). The printer itself has a very small footprint and is rather light, so the tradeoff for slow printing is the benefit of some space back on your desk. I was also pleasantly surprised to see that the printer does indeed print duplex. (I thought I may have had to manually re-feed the paper, but that was not the case.)
Setting up the printer was relatively easy given the touchscreen, although the touchscreen is somewhat small an I had some challenges with hitting the right letter when putting in my home Wi-Fi password with my wide fingers. My computer found the printer right away after it was set up, which was good to see. To use the scanner, however, requires downloading and installing an HP application/program. The scanner has a flatbed as well as a sheet feed, which is nice for flexibility. I typically use a dedicated sheet-feed scanner, however, and will not be changing any time soon as the scanner seemed rather slow to me. Again, just like the print feature, the selling point of this unit is its small footprint, not the speed with which it completes its jobs.
I was a little surprised at the size of the ink cartridges. They were rather small. They were both the same size as well, so I really wonder just how many color pages can be printed before running out of ink. The paper try is also rather shallow, although, as I stated before, this really is not designed to be a high-volume printer, so I suppose that is fine for the intended audience.
Ultimately, this is definitely a home, not an office, device that is designed for the recreational user who occasionally prints things. I cannot help but think of my mom in her 70s who will occasionally print airplane boarding passes and things like that. If you are looking for speed, this is not it. If you want a multi-function device that is compact and relatively easy to use, this printer/scanner could work for you.
