    Printer started acting up not even having it for a week. Would read that it needed paper loaded when it is full of paper and would not print. Then would constantly say there was a jam when there wasn't one. Then it started just reading an error message. Had to contact HP directly and had to talk to them for over 2 hours for a new one to be sent out.

      Hi Joe,

      I'm sorry this happened to you. Obviously, it is not the kind of customer experience we like to see.

      Here's hoping that the new printer is sent quickly and you can get back to printing again.

      You can always contact HP Support in case you need further assistance at: hp.com/contacthp

    There's no internal photo tray making printing photos a pain. No user manual is lame. I don't want to go on line just to learn how to use it

    Not necessarily a good office printer

    Had this printer less than a month. We've used less than 1 ream of paper. All the ink cartridges have already needed replaced. The ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) has never properly scanned any documents. We purchased this printer on sale, and we can only assume that the reason it was on sale is that there was very little interest in this model. This model may work fine for a home office, but not really practical for a true office environment.

    decent printer but now can't use non-HP cartridges

    Slight issue in that documents scanned via the document feeder are a bit misaligned unless the guides are pushed very snugly against the documents. More frustrating new issue is that a recent online update to printer now prevents the use of non-HP cartridges. HP charges roughly the same price for a new set of cartridges as the printer. Won't buy an HP printer again.

    It does take up some real estate but so far okay for the price. Got a month to try out the auto fill ink and it arrived on time.

      Hi Dori,

      I'm very sorry to hear that the photo quality of the printer has been disappointing. That's certainly not something we aim for, so I want to make sure we remedy this for you.

      What I'd first recommend is following the steps in this print quality improvement guide, as it applies to photo quality as well: support.hp.com/document/c05076934

      If the photo quality doesn't improve, please contact us for support. We'd be more than happy to resolve this with you. You can reach us anytime via preferred method here: hp.com/contactHP

    This printer is bigger than wanted. I installed it and started scanning and copying right away. However, a week later it no longer is scaning error message of not installed. I was on the phone with samsung for 2 1/2 hours and still not scanning! I hate this printer!!!

    When it's working properly it's great. That being said I've had to uninstall / reinstall the software / print drivers many times because the scan to computer stopped working or the device was showing offline even though the printer is online.

      Hi there.

      I’m sorry you’ve encountered performance issues with your printer. Your frustration comes as no surprise, considering you’ve had to reinstall the printer several times when it lost the ability to scan to your computer and showed as offline even though it wasn’t. I want to help you resolve these problems, so I’ll provide a resource that I hope will do just that.

      I can’t tell from your review what’s causing this performance. I recommend that you contact us directly at +1 800-474-6836 so we can help you assess what’s happening and find the best course of action. To expedite the process, I recommend gathering the following information before the call:

      - Model number
      - Serial number
      - Your location
