Prints well but 3 major flaws....

Posted by: Krazy4Tink
I bought this to replace a similar 6 year old HP printer that was having software/firware update issues. I was excited to have wifi printing abilities but that also seems to the major downfall of this printer.
1. If you use wifi printing, you CANNOT use a USB or Ethernet cable. Once any print cable is plugged in it automatically turns off the wifi feature. Which means you can't hardwire to the home computer and print wifi from your laptop or ipad.
2. The printer also goes to sleep and turns off automatically. There is NO override on this. The maximum is sleep/1hour or off/8 hours. This totally defeats the purpose of a wifi printer. Telling something to print does not automatically wake up the devise, you must physically go to the machine and turn it back on.
3. IP address issues with wifi. Every time the printer restarts it has a new IP address, so your computer will keep telling you device or drivers found. You have to go into your router settings and tell it to use a static ip address for this device. I was able to do this after a little research on my specific router, but not everyone is comfortable making those changes without some sort of technical support.
On a positive note the print quality is great. I would only recommend if you don't care about wifi printing from ipads/phones/tables/etc...
Disappointed in HP considering the price and the lack of override options. Just like our computers, we should have the sleep/power options of NEVER doing those things automatically.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
