Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have setup a few business printers and its always brutal, usually takes hours to get everything set up correctly and working. This is not the case with the OfficeJet Pro 9135, its the small business printer that is easy to set up and does everything a small business would want/need. Setup: The setup is a breeze, there are QR codes with instruction videos and even printed instructions. The setup took a little under 15 mins including setting up an HP account and configuring print for multiple users. The printer screen even shows how to videos, so you don’t have to go search for them online. Build: Build quality is never a topic when it comes to printers, most of the time they feel/sound like cheap plastic, not the case with the 9135. When removing the paper trays or even lifting scanner area everything is smooth and has a gliding feel to it and when trays close there is a nice satisfying click. Performance: The performance of the 9135 is excellent, the moment I hit print it starts printing so there is very little latency even through WiFi. The printer connects via ethernet of 2.4 and 5 ghz bands and there were no issues connecting to the network. The scanner portion of the 9135 is excellent and allows you to get 1200 DPI for fine detail scans, this is one of the highest I have seen in a small business printer/scanner combo. The prints come out great and ridiculously fast, please look at the test print photo which printed in 2 seconds. The color is great and the text are sharp even when using “normal” quality for the print details. Software: This is where the HP excels, the software is excellent. By signing up for a HP account (no cost) you get access to the cloud where you can send all scanned photos, in case you don’t want to scan them to a centralized location such as a NAS. With the HP account you can also email scans without any additional setup besides the HP account. You can send prints when away from the office and even print free content for the kids. The app is beautifully designed and flows well. You can give permissions to others to print while away. The app is fully loaded even allowing you to scan documents when you’re not near the printer and edit them as needed before sending them to print. Negatives: The only issue I ran into was when I scanned documents to the cloud, I was unable to download them on my smartphone, not sure if this issue with the HP cloud or just the app however I could not get this to work. The 9135 is a new age small business printer, it is simple to setup and use without needing a tech to install. Everything on the app is fluid and the touchscreen on the printer is bright and responsive. The 2 feeder trays are excellent for people that have different size/format papers and they hold enough pages so you’re not always running to refill. This is one of, if not , the simplest full featured small business printer on the market.

This printer took longer than my previous HP printers to setup. There seemed to be more updates and then there was a driver issue. After completing installation reboot your printer and computer. HP Smart usually works pretty well and I like the Instant Ink program as you save money in the long run. This printer comes with a 3-month trial. You must use HP ink cartridges as they verify the chip. The touch screen is nice and you don’t have to push too hard. I tested the printer with text, images in both standard and high quality. With photo paper and regular paper. Printing quality was excellent for inkjet documents and very good for photos. Speed was also excellent in both color (19 ppm) and black and white (23 ppm). Average noise when printing. Scanning worked well, but once in a while it doesn’t feed perfectly. This happens on my other HP too. About once every 25 scans. Copying was very good. The HP AI is interesting. You select “optimize” and it can help remove ads and clutter. I printed a recipe that had ads on the page and it helped remove them. That was nice. But as with most AI, it isn’t perfect. This is a finicky printer. It loses connection to HP Smart so I have to reboot the printer and the computer. When it works, great. I spent a lot of time setting up and then more reconnecting it. The worst is rebooting your computer when you are in the middle of multiple tasks. Recommended with reservations.

This is my first Inkjet printer from HP, as I’ve only used their laser printers in the past. This all-in-one unit has every feature a small business would need from a printer including fax, duplex printing and copying, dual-sided scanning, and remote control via app or web. It has a decently small footprint at 17 inches wide, 15 inches deep, and 12.5 inches tall, though keep in mind you will need to leave room in front to open the paper trays and above it to open the lid for scanning and changing the ink cartridges. It’s lightweight, as well, at just over 26 lbs. This printer has an auto-document feeder (ADF) on top with 35-page capacity that can perform single-pass, dual-sided scanning and copying, capturing both sides of a page at once. The flatbed scanner glass can be used to scan documents up to 8.5x11.7 inches, suitable for originals that can’t be fed through the ADF, like pages in a book. There are two 250-sheet capacity paper trays at the bottom of the printer. The upper tray supports a range of custom and standard media types and sizes from letter and legal paper to envelopes and cardstock, while the lower tray can be used with only the most common sizes and printer paper. For both trays, extending its length to accommodate legal size paper (8.5x14 inches) will cause the front of the tray to stick out about 2.25”. The printer was simple and straightforward to setup. After connecting the power cable, just load some paper and install the ink cartridges. This printer can be connected to a network via Ethernet, USB-B cable, or wirelessly. To connect over WiFi, you’ll need to download and install the HP app to a computer or smartphone. If you choose not to connect it to a network, you can also use WiFi-Direct, AirPrint, or the printer’s 4.3-inch touchscreen. There is a USB data port at the lower front-left corner where you can insert a USB stick, and this lets you print files, photos, and documents from and save scanned documents to a thumb drive. The machine uses 4 separate cartridges for black, magenta, cyan, and yellow and comes with one of each; these have estimated yields of 1250 pages for black and 800 for color respectively, though higher capacity cartridges are available with around double the yield. When connected wirelessly, print jobs initiate very quickly and single page prints generally took less than 10 seconds to complete. While borderless printing is an option for photos, just note that with plain paper, this feature is disabled as the paper is too thin to handle the wet ink without wrinkling at the edges. That said, uncoated standard copy paper is not the best media for inkjet printing as the liquid ink absorbs into it, resulting in slightly lighter and under-contrasted prints that look faded or dull. To get the best quality prints, you will want to use paper designed specifically for inkjet printers, and I prefer glossy or semi-gloss. These will be able to deliver prints that have fully saturated and accurate colors, high-contrast, and the best level of detail. Full-page photos tend to be slightly damp after printing and require a few minutes of drying time, so I recommend handling them by the edges and laying them out individually immediately after printing. For black and white text prints, this isn’t much of an issue and text remains crisp, clear, and easy to read. As for print speed, this printer prints up to 25 and 20 ppm for black and color respectively. The scanner’s performance was also very nice with quick, clear, accurate scans at high resolutions that go up to 1200 dpi. If connected to the internet, you can scan directly to email, network folder, or Sharepoint, in addition to USB or a computer. If you want to scan and save directly to a computer from the LCD, you must download and install separate HP Scan software to that device. When scanning, the scan will automatically be cropped to eliminate any “extra” space around your original, though you can change this behavior in the HP Scan utility from “Detect Content on Page” to “Entire Scan Area.” Photocopies of text documents are decent and legible but not identical to the originals. The text tends to appear darker with a heavier weight, as if bolded, and some lines of text become stretched vertically while others are compressed. This shift is subtle, generally only on the order of one or two pixels and doesn’t affect readability, however, the font will not appear completely uniform. Color copies, however, are excellent reproductions with just a tiny amount of color shift towards cooler shades and a miniscule amount of added graininess and loss of texture detail. Overall, the print quality from the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 is very impressive. Printed text documents are crisp and clean while full-page color photos come out vibrant, accurate, and detailed, when used with suitable inkjet papers. All the office related functions are fast and responsive, and single-pass duplex helps the machine handle high volume copying and scanning efficiently. Wireless networking and WiFi-Direct make the printer simple to connect with my devices, and I found the connections stable and dependable. The HP mobile app also conveniently lets me manage the printer and directly print from and scan to my phone. Note that the machine tends to make a decent amount of noise and shakes a bit while it’s operating, however, when it is idle it is completely silent.

I was looking for a new HP printer to replace my existing model OfficeJet Pro 9015 wireless printer and decided to order the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 Wireless AI-Enabled All-in-One Inkjet printer. I liked that the newest model was loaded with more apps and the HP AI program that can remove unwanted images, ads, or other information from your email it that is what you are printing. I was impressed with this new option since in the many years since I purchased the prior HP model this was a great improvement. I was able to unbox the printer and set it up rather quickly since HP provides clear instructions to set it up along with the programs you can download to your laptop or phone if desired. I knew the issue that would take the most time was setting up the network and then installing the ink cartridges and allowing the machine to calibrate and align the print heads. Fortunately, I have more than one Wi-Fi connection via a modem/router and then a wonderful Wi-Fi broadcaster that sends out the signal for Wi-Fi 7 instead of just 6e. It makes connecting various devices so much easier on 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands used on the printer, but I also use 6ghz for faster broadband results. I liked the fact that the new printer has the same 4.3" color touchscreen like other HP printers and the good feature was that the menus were easy to navigate and made setup and usage easier from the very start. I went ahead and ordered the 3 free months of the Instant Ink subscription since I had a minimal 10 pages a month on my old HP printer and I was able to cancel it while setting the new plan up. I received my first box of ink within a week of signing up and was surprised on how quickly it arrived. The printer has the good 2 methods to scan documents via the sheet feeder or flatbed. It can also duplex print without having any jams and saves paper. I was pleased with the noise level that the printer produced while printing documents. The new feature I have not had before was to setup the printer to email documents to my personal Gmail account. I was glad that I did not have to use the special long email which is a standard optional feature for HP printers. I decided to print out various photos and business presentations I had received via email so I could see how well the color settings worked on the two types of items. I then just used black and white instead of color which is a faster speed per the manufacturer and my own experience of using the brand for many years. I like the printer that has Built-in HP Wolf Pro Security that uses a powerful suite of customizable tools that boost security and helps keep networks protected against cyber threats and malware. I remembered seeing the HP Wolf security on prior HP laptops I have had over the many years.

Initial Setup Right out of the gate, HP clearly put some thought into the physical unboxing experience. Anyone who has tried to pull a heavy, awkward printer out of tight cardboard packaging will appreciate the smart inclusion of a sturdy, grocery-bag-style sling. It allows you to simply lift the entire printer straight up or out the side of the box without any straining. Once placed on the desk, the physical setup is easy as well. Loading the ink cartridges is a breeze—you just drop down the front access door, wait for the carriage to glide to the center, and slide the color-coded cartridges into place. They lock in with a distinct, satisfying spring-loaded click, so there is zero guesswork about whether they are completely or correctly seated. Connecting the printer to the wireless network using the HP Smart app on my phone was entirely hassle-free and took only a couple of minutes following the step-by-step guide. Performance Print Quality & Speed: Text is very crisp like a laser printer for standard monochrome documents. It handles heavy text documents smoothly, printing at speeds of up to 25 pages per minute for black and white. For color work, PowerPoints and the like are vibrant and cleanly defined without noticeable banding. Scan Quality & Feeding: While it features a helpful single-pass, 2-sided automatic document feeder meant to save time, the performance is sub-par to par. The feeder tray occasionally misaligns pages, resulting in slightly crooked PDFs. Furthermore, the scan bed itself catches minor reflection artifacts like a traditional low-end scanner, meaning photos might require a bit of post-scan cleanup. I was honestly hoping to finally retire my standalone scanner to free up some desk space with this all-in-one setup, but because of these quirks, I guess not. It works fine for quick, everyday document scanning, but don't expect perfection from the feeder. I will say that I like the scan-to-pc feature. Being able to walk up to the machine, initiate a scan directly from the printer interface, and have it automatically save a PDF right on my PC is a massive time-saver. It bypasses the need to sit at the desktop and open up the scanner software. Convenience The printer includes a convenient 3-month trial of HP’s Instant Ink program, and my initial shipment of subscription ink cartridges arrived quickly right to my doorstep. For those unfamiliar with how the service tracks your usage and determines billing, the system doesn’t actually care how much physical liquid ink you use. Instead, because the printer is constantly connected to your Wi-Fi network, it reports back the exact number of pages you print. But here's the catch though: a page with a single line of black text counts exactly the same as a full, borderless color photograph. When the printer detects that your physical cartridges are running low based on your real-time usage, it automatically triggers a new shipment behind the scenes so that replacement ink arrives well before you actually run out. Because billing is entirely page-based rather than cartridge-based, you subscribe to a specific monthly tier. Since I don't print much, I am opting for the 25 pages per month plan once my 3-month trial is over. For less than the monthly cost of a single gourmet coffee or a bakery pastry, it's incredibly cost-effective for occasional use. Unused pages roll over to the next month, meaning I don't have to worry about traditional cartridges drying out or paying a premium out-of-pocket for ink I barely use. Verdict The HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 is an excellent asset for a home office, combining incredibly smart physical packaging, seamless mobile app connectivity, and strong, fast document printing. The quick-click ink installation and sharp text output make it a highly productive workstation. While the scanner feeder's finicky alignment means it won't be replacing my dedicated standalone scanner anytime soon, the automated page-based subscription service takes all the guesswork out of maintaining supplies at a very minimal monthly cost for low-volume users like me.

I’ve been using the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e for a week and it has exceeded my expectations as a home office and small-business printer. Setup was straightforward, and the dual-band Wi-Fi connected quickly without the constant disconnects I’ve experienced with previous printers. Print quality is really good for both everyday printing documents and powerpoint presentations. Text comes out crisp and clear and the color graphics are sharp. The automatic duplex printing and duplex scanning features are must haves to save paper and doesn’t bleed through. Just make sure to get multi-purpose paper. Also, I have printed 30 to 50 page documents in que and never experienced paper jams. Just made sure to remove the paper when the paper holder gets full. The dual paper trays are another standout feature, allowing me to keep different paper types loaded and ready to go. The AI-enhanced printing tools and HP Smart app make printing from my phone and laptop incredibly convenient. I also appreciate the large touchscreen, which is responsive and easy to navigate. No printer is perfect. The unit is larger than some home printers, and genuine HP ink can be expensive if you print heavily. However, the speed, reliability, security features, and all-in-one functionality more than make up for those drawbacks. Overall, the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e is a powerful, feature-rich printer that delivers fast performance, excellent print quality, and business-class capabilities at a reasonable price. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a dependable all-in-one printer for a home office or small business.

This is the perfect printer and scanner for a home office and student workspace for high demand use. Our household contains two college students (part time) and two full time remote workers. We scan and print a lot - much more than I like to admit. Having a functional printer that can "print from anything" at all times is a must. I added this printer to the network and removed our old unit. It was auto-detected on every device to date when prompted and has worked perfectly. The ADF is dual sided single pass by default and the printer itself defaults to auto duplex to save paper. After some adjustments for that - all good. This printer starts a job within a few seconds of sending it - even for large and complex PDF files that would cause a "stutter" on our prior printer. Screen, Menu copy and other features - We won't use most of the other features however the copy function will be used. Copy is easy to find on the 4.3 inch screen and starts instantly. starting a scan from the menu is also simple to do. Highlight Features - CONNECTIVITY - Airprint, Chrome, Wireless direct, Wired - all supported. All easy to use. SPEED - 25ppm black / 20ppm color - and fast to start ! CAPACITY - 2 x 250 Sheet feed trays ADF - 35 Sheet single pass 2 sided ! What I love - Fast ready to print from sleep mode - only a few seconds from sleep to start Huge paper capacity with two trays ADF a big improvement over past generations Room for improvement - Individual ink tanks expensive - HP Subscription recommended for heavy use.

I have been fan & customer of HP products for decades, so I am biased I was in the market for a new printer to supplement the current one we have in the house. One upstairs and one down, and of course I looked into HP. My current one is a 7864 that I have had for years, and it has been simple, reliable and maintenance free (just add toner cartridges once in a while - it will tell you) Of course when I saw this 9135 that matches my old one, but with new technology, i knew Ii would be happy with it Unboxing was uneventful. Everything was protected and marked, so it took just a few minutes Set-up was just as simple. Open a HP account if you don't have one (they have a scannable barcode for that). Connect it to my wifi network and started the initiation process in the app I can print and fax wired (at least I think if I had a cord), wireless, Apple AirPrint, and app. There is a touch screen on the printer, or you can use a PC/MAC, your phone app and I guess more options if you are so inclined It prints roughly 25 pages/minutes (or so they quote) and seems much faster and quieter than my older one Lastly, and this is important - sign up for "Instant Ink" so that you are never without toner. I pay a small monthly fee and HP keeps track of my printing and toner usage and ships it before I need it. This is a huge feature Yes I would recommend this to others (and so I have) and I would definitely by a HP again if I was in the market

## **Headline: Built for the Long Haul **Rating:** ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) ### **The Background: Why I Trust HP** Before diving into the features of the **OfficeJet Pro 9135**, I have to share the real reason I bought it: pure brand loyalty earned through decades of performance. I currently own a Hewlett-Packard inkjet printer that I bought all the way back in **2011**. Here we are, 15 years later, and that machine **still runs like an absolute champ**, just like the exact day I bought it. It honestly looks and runs like it could handle another 15 years or longer. When HP builds something, they build it for the long haul. ### **The Hands-On Impressions (A Few Days In)** I’ve been putting this new 9135 powerhouse through its paces for the last couple of days, and it is an absolute workhorse. It doesn't just print; it completely manages heavy-duty tasks with ease. Here is a breakdown of what it does and how it has been performing: * **Massive Paper Capacity:** The dual 250-sheet paper trays are an incredible feature. Having a full 500-sheet capacity means I can load an entire ream of standard paper at once, or keep standard letter paper in Tray 1 and specialized media or legal-sized documents in Tray 2 without constantly swapping them out. * **Lightning-Fast Scanning & Copying:** The automatic document feeder (ADF) features single-pass, two-sided scanning. Instead of physically flipping a page over to scan the back, it reads both sides at the same time. This saves massive amounts of time when archiving large stacks of double-sided paperwork. * **Heavy Duty Connectivity:** The network options are rock solid. Whether printing directly from a smartphone using the mobile app or sending a massive multi-page document from a computer over the self-healing Wi-Fi, the connection is instantaneous. It also features built-in security features (HP Wolf Pro), which gives great peace of mind for a secure setup. * **Crisp, Faster Output:** It clocks in at around 25 pages per minute for black text. The text outlines are incredibly bold and crisp—honestly looking closer to high-end laser output than a traditional inkjet. --- ### **The Quick Pros & Cons** **PROS:** * **Dual Trays:** Holds 500 sheets total; great for separating paper types or handling high volumes. * **Single-Pass Duplex Scanning:** Incredible time saver for double-sided documents. * **Speed:** Laser-comparable speeds for a fraction of the hardware footprint. * **Smear-Resistant Ink:** The pigment-based inks hold up well without bleeding or smudging immediately out of the tray. **CONS (Things to keep in mind for others):** * **Size & Weight:** Personally, I like the size and weight—it feels solid, heavy-duty, and ruggedly built, which gives me confidence it'll last. However, it takes up a decent chunk of desk space, so if you are tight on room or looking for something lightweight to move around easily, it might be a bit much for your setup. * **App-Based Software Setup:** I actually appreciated the modern, tech-forward setup process. It uses a QR code and walks you right through your smartphone or computer app. It went smooth for me, but if you prefer a traditional plug-and-play setup without dealing with modern apps and accounts, it might require a little extra patience to get through the initial activation. ### **The Bottom Line** If the OfficeJet Pro 9135 is built with even half the durability of my old 2011 machine, it’s going to be an incredible investment. If you need a fast, reliable, high-volume multi-tool for your workspace that can scan, copy, and print without breaking a sweat, you can't go wrong here.

I've been using HP printers for quite some time now and this one is no different in terms of reliability or performance. From low end inkjets to higher end laser printers, I've used numerous different model HP printers and I've never really had any major issue with them. With this printer, this offers a great option for a small office and/or work setting pretty easily. This printer offers your standard all-in-one performance that you need to whatever productivity options you need for work/school. 25 PPM which is pretty fast for most purposes; decent sized paper tray at 250 sheets. Printing is pretty easy using the HP companion smart app. I haven't gotten to the point where I need to swap cartridges so I can't comment on how long they last. Based on previous experience though, I don't see any issues with ink cartridges either from the cartridges themselves or the availability of them thanks to the smart ink system. This printer is a tad on the larger size so that's really the only big con I can think of.

PROS: * clear, professional-level quality in both color and black and white * Security onboard when connecting it to your wifi (Wolf Pro Security) * printing is speedy; 24 pages per minute for black and white and 20 for color * two 250-sheet input trays (this will last a long while for us) * The color touch panel is nicely bright and vibrant SO-SO: * wifi connections sometimes need work * no third-party ink works (not a big deal to me, but may be to others) CON: * price (it doesn’t distinguish enough from the HP 9135e before it) The HP 9135 PRO all-in-one printer is one of HP’s latest additions to its proven lineup. This printer is packed with the newest features and offers impressive performance. Printers seem to be all the same these days, but with A.I. (hate it or love it), everything that used to take time to perfect seems easier (most of the time) with automated A.I. That sounds like a cool feature, and it is different than my previous printer. However, I have not seen what makes this printer different from HP’s previous 9135e model, which seems to have all the features this new “PRO” version has. When we look for a printer, we need something that is fast, easy to use, and reliable. My kids love printing coloring pages or their stories and such, and I periodically photocopy artwork they bring home from school. All of this needs to be quick and easy, and it is with HP’s wireless printing through the app. That makes it so much easier to print from my phone. Printing also needs to be affordable, with readily available ink supplies. You can get started with three months free on the HP Instant Ink service. Yes, it is another subscription, but take advantage of the free three months, and set a reminder to cancel if you’d rather not sign up for another subscription. But there is something very convenient about never needing to fuss with ordering new ink and having it all automated. I’m not sure if we’ll use it, since we don’t print in excess, but for small offices or businesses, this would be worth looking into. The touchscreen display is crisp and easy to read, allowing straightforward control both onboard and through the mobile app. The ability to print from anywhere with a data connection is a huge advantage for business use. Having owned the previous generation, I can confirm that this new model feels even more polished and user-friendly. If you’re considering an upgrade, I highly recommend it—you will notice the difference. The build quality is excellent, and the removable power cord is a thoughtful touch. While it may seem insignificant, it makes replacing a damaged cord quick and easy—especially if you have pets that like to chew cords. Overall, I highly recommend the new HP 9135e all-in-one printer. It has every feature I need, and most importantly, they all work flawlessly. The print quality is outstanding for both documents and photos, and there are plenty of options to suit different needs. Whether you need a printer for everyday tasks or for managing a small business, the HP 9135e is a versatile choice. If you decide to purchase it, I’m confident you’ll be satisfied.

The HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 is a true SOHO printer. It is not a small printer, yet it manages to fit its full set of features into a relatively compact size. It’s weight (aprox. 26lbs.) also reminds you that this printer is meant for business, as the ad says ‘Print like you mean business’. Set up was straight-forward and painless. Once plugged in and ready to be connected, it was easy to get everything working together using a combination of the nice, tiltable color touch screen on the printer – along with the HP Smart app. I used the app both on my Mac and my iPhone. One thing to consider: When setting up the printer and connecting it with your HP Smart app, you’ll be asked to opt into HP’s ‘Instant Ink’ program. You start with a free-trial and then continue with a monthly charge for them to monitor your printer and send out HP ink when needed. If you’re looking to set up the printer for long-term use in a SOHO scenario, this would probably be a good option. You’ll always have ink when you need it. However, if you think you may be moving or re-purposing the printer in the future, you may want to skip this option. There is a ‘glitch’ in the program. If you opt in and then cancel, you will still be required to use only HP ink cartridges (not any 3rd-party alternatives) for the life of the printer. If you install a 3rd-party cartridge, the printer will refuse to print. This is a software issue programed in by HP, not a hardware issue. So choose wisely. All of the features worked well, though I did have some trouble initially when trying to copy 1 sided – 2 sided and 2 sided – 2 sided. However, after restarting the computer these features worked. The 4.3” color touch-screen is easy to work with and the fact that you can tilt it up as needed is a big help when using it. The Document Feeder is one of the features that sets the 9135 apart as a SOHO printer. Really nice to put in a stack of pages to copy and have the printer handle it. I did notice, however, that a few of the copies were slightly skewed as if the feeder caused the original to turn during transport. It seems to have diminished as I take a little extra time making sure the originals are evenly stacked and set in. Having 2 trays with capacities of 250 sheets each is very helpful. I like to put plain paper in the bottom tray and card stock in the top. No more changing out paper for me! The HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 is a solid choice for SOHO settings.

In this all-digital era, you might think that the humble printer isn't long for this world. After all, why would you print something when you can see it on your phone, tablet or computer?! It turns out, it's not that simple really. There's a lot of the world that is still built around paper and the exchange of documents, particularly in the business world. And even if you're not creating the documents, you're bound to need to scan / digitize or copy something in the course of the day to day of a business. And that's where this HP OfficeJet shines - you can scan, copy or print right on the device, using a mobile device or wirelessly (or over a wire) from a PC or Mac. The printing and copying come with auto-duplex which is nice and you can scan / copy both sides of a document automatically as well which is a rarer feature than you would think. The print quality is solid as you'd expect from an HP (as is the scanning and copying quality of course) in text or graphics. This isn't really a photo printer, but can print one if needed. Setup and configuration were very easy and I was quickly up and running. I would generally recommend a device like this when printing needs are fairly low (as it's an inkjet which will have better print quality but lower volume speed and slightly higher cost of ink vs a laser) but where you need something that is broadly compatible, high quality AND allows for easy document management on the scanning / copying / etc. side. This device perfectly fits the bill for that. Like all HP products, this printer is well-made and should last a good long time with proper care. So if that sounds good to you, give this one a try today!

After researching nearly a dozen mid-tier office printers, I landed on the HP OfficeJet Pro 9135e (Model: OFFICEJET PRO 9135E / SKU: 6565473) from Best Buy. Two weeks in, roughly 60 hours of hard daily use, I can say without hesitation: this is the best office printer I have ever managed. Fast, quiet, smart, and surprisingly cheap to run. Here is my honest take. I was skeptical of the "AI-enabled" label. I was wrong. Self-Healing Wi-Fi: The router died mid-morning during a busy print queue. On the old printer, that meant 10 minutes of rebooting and reconnecting. The 9135e fixed itself silently. No one lost a job. Smart Web Print Cleanup: A 4-page article that would have printed with ads, sidebars, and cookie banners taking up half the pages came out as a clean 2-pager. The AI strips all of it before the job runs. Less paper, better output, every time. Proactive Ink Ordering: The printer watches its own ink levels over Wi-Fi and ships replacements before running low. I have not seen a single "Low Ink" warning. No emergency store runs. The machine handles its own supply. One-Touch Cloud Scanning: I scanned a 30-page double-sided contract through the document feeder, tapped Scan-to-Email on the screen, and had a complete PDF in my inbox in under 60 seconds. No computer touched. One tap, done. Google Drive, OneDrive, SharePoint, network folders, USB - all configured once and remembered. Custom Shortcuts: I programmed my most-used tasks as single taps on the screen. Scan receipt to cloud storage, send contract to email, copy a form. What used to take several steps now takes one. HP Wolf Pro Security: Continuous firmware monitoring and threat detection built right in. For a mid-tier machine handling sensitive client documents, this was a genuine and welcome surprise. Mobile Printing: I print, scan, copy, or fax directly from my phone via the HP Smart app. Full printer management from anywhere in the building. These are not extras bolted onto a standard printer. Every job I run goes through these systems. They save paper, save time, and make the whole experience feel like the printer is working with me instead of against me. I have managed enough office printers to know the real trap: cheap hardware, expensive ink. Run out of cyan printing a client proposal and you are paying $28 for a single cartridge at the last minute. Budget for ink, miss anyway. Repeat forever. That is the old model. HP Instant Ink ends it. I pay a flat monthly fee based on how many pages I print. Not by cartridge. Not by color versus black. Not by how much ink is physically left. Just pages. Color counts the same as black-and-white. When I print a full-color presentation, I am not punished for it. The printer monitors its own ink and ships replacements automatically before I run low. I activated HP+ at setup, which gave me three free months of ink to start and extended the warranty from one year to two at no charge. The ongoing savings versus buying retail cartridges runs 50 to 70 percent. I will not buy a retail ink cartridge again. On power: ENERGY STAR certified, 5.58 watts ready, 1.22 watts in sleep. For a machine running 10 hours a day, the electricity cost is negligible. On maintenance: removable print head means a clog, if one ever happens, is a DIY fix rather than a service call. The build quality is solid. Over 40 percent recycled plastic but it does not feel like it. I also added the Best Buy Geek Squad Service Contract. Here is my reasoning: this machine will log roughly 2,600 hours of use per year. Rollers wear. Mechanisms fatigue. Having professional backup means no surprise repair bills, no scramble for a replacement, no downtime. The annual contract cost is nothing compared to one out-of-warranty repair. It was an easy call. Zero paper jams. Zero errors. Zero times it was unavailable when someone needed it. The 9135e has been 100 percent reliable from day one. Speed holds up in real use. HP claims 25 pages per minute in black and 20 in color. Printing actual 20-page monthly reports and invoices, those numbers are accurate. First page out in about 10 seconds from cold. The dual 250-sheet trays give 500 sheets total capacity. I keep one loaded with letterhead and one with plain paper. Nobody has had to stop mid-job to reload. The 35-sheet duplex document feeder scans both sides simultaneously, no manual flipping. It has saved real hours on contracts and multi-page forms. The 4.3-inch color touchscreen works like a phone. Responsive, organized, zero lag. I timed a new hire learning to fax and scan to email from scratch: under 30 seconds each. No training required. (1) HP+ Lock-In: Activating HP+ means the printer only accepts genuine HP cartridges going forward. Third-party refills stop being an option. Given how much cheaper Instant Ink is than retail, this has not bothered me once. The savings make it irrelevant. (2) Photo Print Speed: Full-bleed photos on specialty paper print slower than the headline speed. This is an office document printer. For my flyers, reports, and presentations it is outstanding. For dedicated photo work, a different machine would be more appropriate. (3) Unboxing: There is a lot of blue tape and cardboard inside protecting the print head and ink carriage during shipping. Follow the setup poster and remove all of it before powering on. Takes about 15 minutes. Miss a piece and there will be a problem. Follow the instructions and there will not. This is the best mid-tier office printer I have owned. The AI features are real and useful. The ink costs are the lowest I have ever run. The reliability record after 60 hours is spotless. The touchscreen and Smart app make it genuinely easy for everyone to use every feature, not just print from a laptop. I plan to keep this printer permanently, stay enrolled in HP Instant Ink, and keep the Geek Squad contract active. That combination gives top-tier performance, predictable low operating costs, and complete service coverage.

The office jet pro 9135 is a step up from the small business AIO model that I swapped out for this testing. While it sits in almost the same footprint, it is definitely taller and a bit wider. While certain things are bigger (bigger touch panel, second paper tray, auto feeder for the scanner/copier), all those features aren’t that different - the screen doesn’t even show that much additional stuff it’s just easier to read and you’re less likely to mis touch something on the menu. What I found is the biggest difference is that the printer is just more robust and performant. Let me explain. Set up is straightforward, install the surprisingly tiny ink cartridges, power on, and use the screen to enter your wifi information. For those still in the past, you can use USB - no cable included. Running through a few black/white and color test prints - the print result is sharp. With black/white, the difference isn’t that noticeable compared to the older printer without holding things side by side and for what’s still home use, the difference is meaningless. But color prints are noticeably better. Even the kids noticed that before they saw that there was a new printer. Another improvement, and maybe it’s due to the ink technology difference, is that color prints are much less wet. This lets you handle paper a lot faster after printing and not worry as much about artificially inserting pauses between heavy color prints.The other thing you notice even before that is how fast this prints. 25ppm is much faster than the 15 we’ve been used to. The printer also seems to be faster at getting all the content over the network which helps to make it feel like prints are twice as fast. There’s less delay between clicking print and the printer actually starting to spool the paper and then the print is out in a few quick seconds. The printer support duplex printing which works from either paper tray.

I used to think that a single 250 tray should be fine for just at home and at one point, that was true. But with kids being the source or recipients for 90% of prints nowadays, having a higher capacity has become a nice-to-have. The number of times we’ve gone to print something an adult needed in the past year only to run out of paper a few pages in has been frustrating. Scanning and copying are nice - better but I think that’s mostly because of the print quality than scanning quality. The speeds here seem about the same so don’t expect much of any upgrade from a small business tier AIO. Where this adds to the print speed as getting more bang for your buck is with paper handling. My existing AIO struggles with card stock. It is the norm that I will sacrifice 4 or 5 sheets to every 1 successful print including dealing with paper jams. And seemed hit or miss as to which input would happen to work well on a given day - the tray or single sheet feeder. Here, either feeder, that card is going in and coming out without issues. No more cringing in expectation that I’d need to once again remind myself how to open the back of a printer and ink my fingers a bit to clear a jam, assuming it even got that far. I was impressed enough with the improved speed and quality, but now being able to handle our craft paper reliably makes the tradeoff of more size in the living room nook worthwhile. Covering the input bases, the printer works fine from the HP app and one can scan to your phone. I still mostly just use my phone directly, but I like that I could pass in a multi page contract or document and have it scan it all. The smart features still need some work and I’m not necessarily happy by it requiring that my data pass through HP servers. Essentially, it doesn’t some content removal on the fly and streams the updated print to the printer. I don’t understand why all HP printers that support remote don’t automatically get the AI features, but I can accept it’s something that needs certain new hardware to work. But the list of things you can do is underwhelming and implementation needs work. It’s also not that easy to actually configure and essentially, 50% of the time, you end up printing again without it so there is currently no real benefit to having an option to leave it always enabled. Supposedly, it can improve print quality without the functionality where you’re removing email headers or ads, but I didn’t notice a difference.

In summary, I enthusiastically recommend this printer as an upgrade from a small business model if you’re running into similar capacity and performance constraints - wanting faster prints, more paper capacity, and getting tired of manually clearing jams on what are common paper stock used in a home setting. I have concerns about the ink longevity given the cartridge sizes. The print quality alone isn’t worth the upgrade but is definitely a nice bonus.

I test a lot of printers. Most of them blur together after a while because the category just doesn't move that fast. HP's OfficeJet Pro 9135 caught my attention mostly because of the spec sheet. Two 250-sheet paper trays, single-pass duplex scanning, auto duplex printing, a 35-sheet document feeder, fax, and a 4.3-inch touchscreen. That's a lot of stuff crammed into one box. And yeah, the box is big. This thing takes up real desk space, more than I expected for an inkjet. The dual paper trays ended up being my favorite part, which is a weird thing to say about a printer. But being able to keep regular paper loaded in one and card stock or letterhead in the other meant I wasn't swapping paper out constantly. Sounds like a small thing. It isn't, not if you're switching between jobs all day. Print speed is legit too. HP says 25 pages per minute for black and 20 for color, and I didn't see any reason to argue with that. Hit print, paper starts moving almost right away, even wirelessly. Text is sharp, colors look clean enough for presentations and flyers you'd hand to a client. Not photo-printer territory, but that's not what this is for. So there's this AI feature HP keeps talking about. You can use it to strip ads and clutter out of web pages and emails before you print them. Kind of cool in theory. In practice, it worked maybe half the time. A recipe page with a bunch of ads around it? Cleaned it up nicely. A more complex layout? Missed stuff, left weird gaps. I wouldn't factor it into a buying decision, but it's a neat bonus when it cooperates. That touchscreen tilts up toward you, which I appreciated more than I thought I would. Responsive, easy to read, and you can get through the menus without squinting or reaching around to the back of the printer. Scanning at up to 1200 DPI is solid, and the single-pass duplex feature means double-sided documents go through once instead of getting flipped and fed back in. Real time saver if you deal with a lot of paperwork. Now for the gripes. Wi-Fi dropped on me. More than once. The printer supports dual-band, 2.4 and 5 GHz, and HP says it auto-resolves connection issues. Maybe it does sometimes, but I had to power cycle the thing to get it reconnected on a couple of occasions. Not a dealbreaker since it worked great once it was back online, but annoying when you're trying to print something and nothing happens. Other thing worth knowing is that this printer only accepts HP ink cartridges. Dynamic security is baked in, meaning third-party cartridges with non-HP chips get blocked. Period. HP throws in three months of their Instant Ink subscription, which helps, but you're committed to buying HP ink for as long as you own this printer. If cheap third-party cartridges are part of how you keep printing costs down, this isn't your machine. Good all-in-one for a small or home office that prints regularly and wants speed, decent quality, and actual functionality like fax and duplex scanning in one device. Just go in with your eyes open about the Wi-Fi hiccups and the ink lock-in. If you can live with those, it gets the job done and then some.

HP was my brand of choice ~15 years ago up until semi-recently. I was using one particular high-end HP model I had purchased in 2007 as my daily driver and had some cheaper models for my wife and daughter in the house. Then at my business I had been using HP printers for my staff. They were cheap, reliable, exactly what I needed. Never gave many issues and so long as you had ink and paper in them, they worked. Then that high-end model broke, I replaced it what the modern equivalent was from HP, it last a few months, broke, long story short ended up going a different route. That particular printer last a little over 3 years before it started having issues, which perfectly aligned with this HP 9135 popping up on TIN. After getting it all unboxed and removing the various parts/pieces that help keep things from breaking in transit I powered it on and started the connectivity procedure. In recent past, this was always a nightmare with HP. I had two different models at work that I gave up connecting to via Wi-Fi and just used the hardwire method and never had a problem again. The 9135 connected immediately and has done so every single time I've gone to print. That unto itself would've won me back, but it continued to shine and surprise. The paper capacity is through the roof for daily needs. You get dual 250 count trays and can essentially load this thing up once a month and forget about it. HP specs say 25PPM for B&W, 20PPM for color and while I didn't have any huge printing needs to test that against, the couple jobs that were 10-15 pages were finished before I had gotten up out of my chair and snagged the folder I was going to place them into, so I have no reason to doubt those numbers hold up. Color quality is great for documents, good for photos, but that's to be expected. This is not billed as as photo-centric printer and still does a very commendable job with recreating colors and maintaining crisp lines. The other main use-case for me is scanning. I scan dozens of documents every single day and the fact this has single-pass dual sided scanning is amazing. Yes, I'm at that point in my life where I'm getting excited about a printers scanning capabilities. At this price-point and model level, some weight and heft is to be expected. These aren't going to have a tiny footprint or be easy to move around like an entry-level printer, so keep that in mind. The 9135 isn't a monstrosity by any means, but it does have some bulk to it and while I personally like that it feels solid and planted in place, others might not if they're limited on space or a have difficulty with odd shaped heavier objects. Glad to see HP has figured out the connectivity issues and improved quality across the board on the whole. The return to form makes the 9135 an easy recommendation.

HP always seems to have the the most efficient easy to use printers on the market. The HP OfficeJet Pro 9135 was very easy to set up. Thank you HP for putting handles on the protecting wrapping of the printer so it was easy to pull out of the box. Once you have unwrapped the printer and removed all of the tape you simply plug in the printer and follow the on screen directions. There is also a QR code that gives you a step by step on how to setup the printer. Since I already have owned HP printers in the past I already had an account setup so adding the printer via the app was very easy. Once I got the printer connected to my Wifi it went through a few update and then it tried to have me provide a credit care for the HP instant ink. You don't need to provide a credit card if you choose not to enroll in HP instant ink which is great if you are always running out of ink. Im usually prepared so I never really run out and I dont like that the cartridges become unusable if you cancel your subscription. The printer itself is great. The Officejet Pro 9135 will take care of all of you at home printing scanning or faxing needs. The printer is able to print 25 pages per minute in grayscale and 20 pages per minute in color. The 4.3 inch color touch screen is clear and easy to use. The autofeed function works great and you can easily make double sided copies at home with ease. The HP app is also a game changer compared to other apps because the software and user experience is effortless. I tried a popular printer from another brand however I came right back to HP due to their reliability and great features. It's great that I can have an office level printer in my home that meets all of my families needs. The WiFi connectivity has been great for me so far as compared to my previous printers and wireless printing is easy and fast. Having 2 trays for paper is great so you can easily keep multiple paper sizes in the printer with ease. HP truly hit it out of the park with this printer. I would definitely recommend this printer to anyone who is in the market for one

Setup: First thing I noticed with the HP Pro 9135 all-in-one was the out-of-box experience. Setup was straightforward, nothing overly complicated, and it walked through network connection and driver install without any issues. If you have an HP account then you can apply your preset scanning settings through the app which makes setup easy if you previously had a modern HP printer. The touchscreen interface is responsive and easy to navigate right from the start, which helps if you’re setting this up for an home office where not everyone is technical. Build quality feels solid for a business-class device and it doesn’t have that cheap plastic feel you sometimes get in this category. Use: On the print side, output is consistent and clean whether you're doing basic documents or something with heavier graphics. It handles printing well without slowing things down. I really think the quality is so close to laser that I was very impressed with some text documents and a full picture I printed. It looked like laser print and you could not see the dots from the ink and the page was not warped like it was previous with heavy full coverag documents. Scanning is fast and intuitive, especially with the document feeder, and quality is more than usable for day-to-day office workflows. The scanning was easy with the presets you can carry from a previous printer. Also you can scan to your phone, which is nice. Copying is just as simple directly from the panel, and the interface makes it easy to adjust settings without digging through menus. It’s a well-rounded unit across print, scan, and copy without any one function feeling like an afterthought. Overall, this is a solid all-in-one for a small office or workgroup that just needs things to work without babysitting it. The pros are ease of setup, reliable print quality, and a simple interface. The only downside is it’s not trying to be a high-volume powerhouse, but for most home office use cases it hits the mark. Also, the inks are expensive if you purchase them outside of the monthly service. They only last 1200 pages, which is not much. If you keep the subscription, then it does not matter. HP also sent an extra set within a few days.

I have a previous version of the OfficeJet Pro 9135 so I knew what to expect. I literally unplugged the old one, plugged in the new one, connected it to my WiFi Mesh Network and after an update, this reliable workhorse was ready to pick up where its predecessor left off. Windows support is automatic, the 9135 will be detected as an available printer on your network. All drivers in Windows 11 are unified for HP and you don't have to download or install anything. If you want some legacy functionality however, like multi-scan to multi-saved photos, you will want to go and get the entire HP Software Suite. I also print a lot directly from my iPhone and AirPrint detection is also flawless, HOWEVER, you want to make sure your Wireless network that you are connected to is peered and not double NAT'd. Also, this 9135 uses the same 836 inkjet cartridges as the previous model so I can stock up on the same ink for both. I still do a lot of printing at home for the kids and their art projects, whether that is designs, stencils, or even digital scans of the artwork they bring home. This printer also does a great job to help with those scans which makes it a great option for the home as I mentioned. With the big touch screen and intuitive prompts, my kids can handle all the scanning themselves. Most people don't print as much as they used to but I do a lot of online buying/selling and I'm always printing labels. I'm also printing things on occasion for work and for the kids as I'm involved with their extracurriculars so a printer is still a must-have at home and these HP OfficeJet Pros have always gotten the job done for me from both a hardware and software standpoint.
