This all-in-one printer is not as good as advertised. (1) I configured the printer as instructed. I tried to set up On/Off times (the printer gives an option to select ON/OFF times for each day of the week) using the touch screen on the printer. The problem is the printer uses ONLY GMT (suitable for users in the U.K). I live in the eastern U.S. I want the printer to come ON at 9 AM, New York time and go OFF at 10 PM New York time. It was not possible. I have given up. (2) I have been using the HP Smart app for printing and scanning documents foryears with the All-in-one 8625 printer which was very good, but failed recently. Now, with the 8135, every time I start the HP Smart, it asks for the printer PIN (although it was required at the initial set up only). Strangely, it gives an error whaen the correct PIN is entered. So, I ignore it by pushing the CANCEL button. (3) The printer crashes sometimes, and does not respond. The only way to restart is PowerOFF/Power ON.
I have not tested it extensively, because we do not print/scan documents every day.
This is my last purchase of an HP Printer I will never recommend this product to friend or foe

1. I have only hp printers for many, many years and I have never been so disappointed in my new printer. It is slow, it is loud, the display is too small and I have to press the copy and scan button many times to get it to work. Shoddy material
This printer is a good value for the money and generally prints well. Unfortunately, it seems to have a lot of connectivity issues. It frequently disappears from my network and needs to be reconnected.
My all in one 8600 that I had for about 12 years I was told finally went bad. I need a new printer like a copy, scan and fax. So I decided on this model. Set up was easy but during the process of setting up, I noticed several things that I just didn’t like. My old 8600 HP was constructing a whole lot better the paper feeder tray is plastic. I tried to print an envelope, but it got jammed . It doesn’t feed envelopes until the system. At the printing time, it’s a whole lot slower than my old system. I wish everybody else has their own opinion I need a printer, so far this One is serving the purpose not that great, but serving the purpose
