I purchased this model HP Office Jet Pro 8135e to replace a well worn model HP 8035. I like the all in one features and the auto feed document tray. I like the 2-sided printing. I like using ink cartridges that I purchase whenever I need to replace them. The printer works very well with one exception. Occasionally, when printing a document it "freezes" and doesn't finish print. I cancel print and usually have to turn the printer off then turn back on. When I turn it back on, it resets itself. This doesn't happen very often. I never had this problem with my older model HP. Because I love all the other features of this printer, I am just dealing with this glitch.
not too bad to setup. print quirky as pages not always fully printed. photo print a pain to work thru screen it is a so so printer only reason I bought is the cartridges are cheaper and longer lasting than last HP I had
This printer is a huge disappointment to me. I had used the 8160 for many years and loved its printing ability, speed, ease of operation, and controls. I have enjoyed very few of these features on the 8135 model, which I purchased thinking it was the closest to the 8160. Printing is noticeably slower, the paper does not remain secure in the tray so I often need to push it forward to get the printer to work. My previous printer had a spring loaded device to push the paper forward. Reading the control screen is more difficult as well
I've been subscribed to HP instant ink for over 5 years and have been very happy with it. I love how the ink comes automatically and I'm never out of ink. The small amount I pay every month for the service makes it so worth it to me.
