Although an easy wireless hook up, it has turned out to be less than I expected in performance. When sending a job to the printer, the machine takes 10 secs or more to act like an athlete just waking up. It "stretches", "flexes", does a few "push ups", etc while I shake my head in frustration saying, "C'mon. Get on with the print already." Also, I do a lot of 2-sided printing. This printer prints the series of one side, then you take out the stack and stick it back in the printer to do the second side series. I couldn't believe it. I thought THAT approach went out years ago and believed all current printers have the capability to print both sides as a regular feature. Even my kids were astonished at this. I will say, though, that the printed product is excellent. However, overall I'm not satisfied with the machine and wouldn't buy this model again.

This printer was fairly easy to assemble and get going. So far we have only had 2 issues with it and one of the it had to be unplugged in order to get it to print from a wireless device. On another occasion I was also instructed by the printer when it wouldn’t print to remove and check one of the print heads. It was easy to do and I found nothing wrong with it but I had to do it 2 times to get the printer to come back online and print. Hopefully these are one time events. The large print tanks are great and are very easy to fill. I haven’t had to refill them and suspect I won’t for a long time since there’s just 2 of us that use this printer. The quality of the paper printing is good and the colors are very nice. I have not tried to print any photos yet but might try that just to see how it works. I generally don’t use a printer to print my photos but send them to a printing service especially with my previous printer which the ink was very expensive. The refills on this printer seem very inexpensive in comparison. Hopefully the print heads, which look a lot like another printers ink cartridges, will last quite a while. One negative thing I have seen is that it is slow to print if it hasn’t printed in a while. The printing speed on it is ok but not wonderful. The unit is very sturdy and fit into the place I had my previous printer. The scanner is very nice in that you can use it wirelessly and not just from a computer but from a phone or tablet. It has several locations that you can have the end product of the scan end up, email, Dropbox or a hard drive location if you have one saved. The paper tray is not huge and holds maybe 30-40 sheets so that’s a little bit disappointing. I’m not sure why they didn’t put the paper feed into a drawer under the paper output. It could have held more paper and not been a dust collector like it is mounted on the back. I have not used the fax but I did notice that when I went to plug it into a phone line that there is only one jack and that is an input. So if you need a phone and fax, you need to get a phone line splitter. We rarely need a fax and if we do we’ll just plug in the phone line to it. Overall I’m pretty happy with this printer although while I was writing this review I decided to try the sheet feeder and scan from my iPad and the printer locked up again. I unplugged it as it was stuck in shut down mode for quite a long time. When it came back up I scanned from my iPad from the sheet feeder and it worked ok. I feel like the pages were just a little tilted to one side and there was a small black mark at the bottom of each page that’s not on the scanner bed-so they didn’t feed quite square. I do feel like the software side of this printer is a little bit difficult to get everything set up and working and can be a little time consuming. But as of now it all seems to be working well.

This printer replaced an older HP all-in-one wireless one that finally stopped working. Set up was really easy and it prints beautifully and quickly. I’m excited to see how long the ink lasts. Will save me money for sure.

This printer uses a refillable ink-tank system rather than traditional cartridges, which means very low cost per page if you print regularly. According to one review: “The Smart Tank’s dramatically low costs per page are impressive.

So easy to set up, great prints - love that I can sit on the couch & print my documents!
Only challenge is that it doesn't hold a lot of paper so large print jobs require refills!

I have always wanted something that is simple to use! This printer is different because it uses liquid ink, instead of cartridges. The printer is professional quality. Try it, you will probably like it!

I absolutely love this new printer! It is so efficient, and the print quality is exceptional. My old printer was ink cartridge, and the ink kept drying up which was getting very expensive. I am so happy for this technology.
