    Bought this printer to replace one that went belly-up. Price was reasonable, seems to function ok. True testt of it’s quality will be how long it lasts. Check back with me in a year.

    The printer works fine after it starts, but it is very slow to start printing. I am happy with the quality of printing if speed is not important.

    We got this printer to replace an hp office jet that broke. It is ok but not as good as the one it replaced. For home this would be fine, for work it's a little slow.

    Do NOT buy this piece of junk!!! I bought it on January 31, installed it and printed a bunch of things...February 9 I went to print and it was completely dead! The "HP Smart" app says it was "ready" the control panel on my computer says it was operating properly, but another program said the driver was unavailable. I spent over an hour on the phone with the Geek Squad, who were unable to fix it. I temporarily got it fixed yesterday (February 15) and now today it won't print again. Worst piece of junk EVER! And of course, the return window closed YESTERDAY!!! So now I'm out the cost of this horrible horrible printer! If I could give it zero stars, I would.

      Hi there.

      I’m sorry to hear that your printer stopped working so abruptly. The frustration you express is totally understandable, considering the contradictory messages you received as well as an attempt with a retail professional to remedy the problem without success. Because we want customers to have a better experience than what you’ve endured, I’ll offer some resources I hope will help.

      I can’t tell from your review what issue your printer faces or why it stopped working, so I recommend that you contact us directly at +1 800-474-6836 so we can help you assess the situation and find a solution. (Please note that because of restrictions on personal movement and workplace attendance associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, wait times for agents are longer than normal. Thanks in advance for your understanding.) To expedite the process, I recommend gathering the following information before the call:

      - Model number
      - Serial number
      - Your location
      - Case number (from any previous contact with HP support)

      I'll also mention that HP printers have a one-year warranty from their purchase date that covers hardware as well as ink supplies, so you might consider making use of it. You can verify the warranty using the following link: support.hp.com/us-en/checkwarranty

    This printer had all the features I was looking for in my home office. The only downside is that the wireless printing set up was very choppy and I still haven't made the time to get it to work.

    I don’t think it’s a good thing to give company’s access to your credit or debit cards. I paid my fee upfront and can’t use it because i won’t give access to my account

    Every time I go to print I have to reconnect this printer to my computer. I do t understand why HP would have that silly app that needs to be used along with this.

    its a solid printer, a little buggy here and there especially with the auto shutdown feature, the only way I figured to get past it is to set the printer to auto turn on at 7am

    This printer appears to be exactly what a home user would be looking for, unless they want the scan function to actually work according to manufacturer's specs! I have had two printers, one worse than than the other. HP techs said it was a hardware issue replace it. Second unit: it's a hardware issue, no a software issue, no it's a hardware issue. Engineers said not loading paper properly. It's a PC problem. It's definitely a software issue, and I have to wait until firm ware is fixed WHENEVER! This us no exaggeration! Went on for weeks!

    The printer has to be constantly reloaded to print. This is the first HP product that I have had such issues with. Prints great otherwise.

    I like the printer except the auto feeder does not work all the time and there is no phone number to call for assistance. I tried the on-line helps but no luck in solving my issues.

    I found out the hard way that you cannot print documents from a thumb drive. Was told at the store that I could, but it did not recognize the adobe documents I needed to print.
