The HP MFP M479fdw has skewed/crooked scans
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this model a few days ago from my local Best Buy. Initial setup and network install was incredibly easy and the test prints looked fantastic. Overall, this feels like a quality machine and it has the feature set I was looking for. The issue I have is with the scanner when using the scan to email or scan to network folder options (basically anything scanned or copied from the MFP itself). All scans are skewed/crooked by about 2/8” on the right hand side. This issue occurs whether using the ADF/automatic document feeder or the glass/platen. The issue was bad enough I exchanged the MFP the next day, only to find the replacement unit has the same exact issue. I contacted HP support about the issue - their solution is to use the “HP Scan” software on a computer along with the “Straighten” option activated to correct the issue. For the most part the software Straighten option does work - I found it was still just slightly off, however, this is a post processing software tweak vs. a hardware fix for a faulty product. Relying on a computer with the HP Scan software also defeats the purpose of utilizing the scan to email and scan to network options as the scans will always be skewed/crooked - it’s unacceptable for business documents. The only option I’m left with is to arrange an on-site tech visit to address the issue. While it’s great HP offers that level of warranty service, I don’t believe that should be necessary on a brand new machine. I will be returning it for a refund.

Very Difficult to Program
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am no computer genius, but can generally hold my own. This printer is areal challenge set up. Of course, only on -line manual and even then, instructions really not very clear. I have it working but I probably have not optimized the set up. You tube videos help. Why does it have to be so hard?????????

So far so good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have not used much but good. But not a fan of the required app. Be sure to look at requirements before you but. Also maybe my review does not take 50 characters, a little annoying.
