No, I would not recommend this to a friendWorst printer I’ve EVER owned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really don’t understand why this printer has so many high reviews. It’s relatively pricey for a printer. I had trouble setting it up and after 4hrs. Yes, 4 HOURS, the HP help team didn’t have any idea. I called up an IT buddy who remotely signed into my computer and figured out what the issue was within 2 MINUTES. I’ve had it a month and it’s constantly getting paper jams and the HP smart ink runs out 10x faster than my Cannon did. After 50pages the ink is severely compromised and fades, but continues to print that counts towards my pages per month & is unreadable. I replaced my first cartridges with ones that were sent directly from HP & got an error instantly that I can not use “store bought” cartridges. Really? HP sent them to me. I honestly don’t think “Hate” is a strong enough word I feel for this purchase. I wish I could return it.

Posted .Hi there.
I’m sorry to learn that your printer has performed so poorly. Your exasperation is no surprise, considering that you’ve endured paper jams, poor print quality and an error message after installing Instant Ink cartridges. I want to help you out of this dilemma, so I’ll offer a resource and some information aimed at reaching that goal.
I can’t tell from your review why the printer has performed the way you describe.

I'll also mention that HP printers have a one-year warranty from their purchase date that covers hardware as well as ink supplies – and that warranty extends to two years with an HP+ account – so if it comes to that, you might consider making use of it.

JUST SAY NO
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took 3 hours to connect to wifi HP customer service said that this printer needed to be within 10 feet of my router. After 3 hours - I said I would have to return it because I could not place it within 10 feet. SUDDENLY it connected - after 3 hours when i threatened to buy a different printer it connected. Now 6 months later it will not connect and I am not wasting another 3 hours on a Saturday. WASTE oF TIME AND MONEY

Posted .Hi there.
I’m sorry to learn that you’ve encountered difficulty with your printer’s scan feature. Having the software crash frequently I’m sure has quickly become frustrating. I want to help you improve the scanning process, so I’ll point out some resources aimed at reaching that goal.
First, I recommend you visit a page on our support site that has diagnostic tools for various problems, including scanner issues. There you’ll find a general-purpose tool called the HP Print and Scan Doctor. If you use Windows, the tool will help identify and guide you through solutions to a wide range of common scanning as well as printing issues. Visit that page here:
- support.hp.com/us-en/topic/diagnostics
Next, I suggest that you follow a guide to installing and using the HP Smart App, especially the FAQ portion, which covers common questions as well as difficulties users have encountered. Choose the link to whichever document matches your operating system:

Decent printer less the software.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unlike my old HP printer, this model is not easy to use. You essentially must use the "HP Smart" software to accomplish any task. For example, I am unable to scan a document from the printer/scanner to my computer using the touchscreen on the unit. Unlike my old printer, I get a message instructing me to use the HP Smart application on my computer. Such a pain! I believe this is a marketing scheme because the application is littered with ways you can spend more with HP. Very disappointing.

I would recommend this to a friendSo many issues, BRAND NEW!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got my printer, and got it set up. It immediately was showing “paper jam” message before I ever tried printing anything. I tried everything that was recommended and did a video call with HP and they said they printer was defective. I drove an hour and a half away to the nearest Best Buy to do an exchange. I got my new printer and drove all the way back home. I got it set up and it prints! Except it’s only PRINTING PINK. I set it up exactly as the instructions say. It’s a brand new printer and it only prints pink. I got two brand new printers within a day and they both have issues. Not impressed at all.

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This printer is the biggest piece of garbage I have ever had the displeasure of owning. My HP 5140series i bought in 2016 was a more efficient printer with better features. And it was even fast than this hunk of garbage. I cant even belive i paid over 300$ for a constant headache. For the life of me i dont know why I threw out the box essentially marrying me to this nightmare. I knew the minute we brought this home and unboxed it, it would be nothing but a HUGE pain in the butt

LOUD and horribly designed
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is very loud, does not hold a lot of paper. And it’s hard to get paper in and out of that slot because the photo paper slot is on top. And on top of that is the paper holder. Horrible design! I’m returning it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Sturdy and reliable
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.very sturdy and seemingly reliable printer. Wireless connection works well. The app on line is not very intuitive so unless I use the printer frequently--like everyday--I have to refresh my memory on how to get everything to work.
I would recommend this to a friendOwner
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s operates very loudly. The toner does not last long and are very expensive. One complete set of toner is more expensive than the actual machine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDo Not Buy This Unit
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worst piece of sxxx I have ever tried to use. Should be zero stars but that is not an option. Software download does not work as admitted by HP Support. Best Buy should not be selling this junk they are better than this. And it is embarrassing to have the HP logo on it. I have never been this upset at a product to write a single negative review.

Posted .Hi there.
I’m sorry that your printer has not completed the setup and installation process. I can wholly understand why being unable to download the software and not receiving the support you need would be a dreadful start to ownership. I want to help you out of this dilemma. I hope the resource below makes that happen.
I can’t tell from your review what prevented the software download from working like it should, nor can I tell what means you used to reach support. If you’ve not done so already, I recommend that you contact us directly so we can help you assess what’s happening and find the best course of action.

NOT FOR ME
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I WANTED A TOUCH-PAD AND THIS MODEL DID NOT HAVE IT
I would recommend this to a friendOk
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems I have to have a monthly payment plan to get ink. And it doesn’t print nearly as easily from my iPhone as I expected. Not sure if there’s a better choice, but no, not thrilled with this choice.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDO NOT BUY SCAM
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was the worst purchase I have ever made. I got this printer only to find out that if you do not pay the monthly printer fee you are not able to print at all and they do not send you the ink for the subscription that you sign up for. I am not able to use this at all it just sits on my desk. RUN RUN FROM THIS PURCHASE IF I COULD GIVE NO STARS I WOULD
