Bought this to replace an older HP printer (HP’s recommended “replacement” model). Unfortunately it was nonfunctional out of the box. The HP app diagnosed a paper tray that wasn’t lifting. I own and have owned multiple HP printers and this is the first one with a moving paper tray. Clearly the mechanism has reliability issues. Annoying but better to fail at the beginning than in 6 months! Also the printer is rather bulky. All in all an underwhelming experience.
I have had a series of problems attempting to print wirelessly on my home network. At first I thought it was Norton 360, but even with that disabled the printer is shown offline. I have tried removing the printer and reinstalling all the software with the same result. Getting by with hardwiring the printer to my PC.
This printer replaces my HP1100 from 1999. I needed a faster black and white printer that I can print from my PC or iPhone. I’m happy and it prints duplex. I used a USB cable to complete setup (not included). Other than software download, no internet was required. I was not able to complete setup without the USB cable because my PC does not have Wi-Fi. But otherwise, it’s been great!
