[Original Review: March 3, 2024] [Purchase Date: July 19, 2022] I gave my previous HP Envy 5055 away and kept my Brother laser printer. Then I found myself wanting to do color posters on photo paper for a non-profit. I wasn't looking to break the bank and reviews for this printer were great. I purchased it in July 2022. While I do have a love/hate relationship with HP's newer software, the printer installed easily, it rarely has connection issues and the remote Smart printing came in useful a few times. A feature I never figured I'd use. I did probably 30-50 posters with this printer. Granted that eats up the extremely expensive, HP Genuine ink I was buying, they printed BRILLIANTLY. Especially on photo paper and then laminating them afterwards. They were beyond my expectations. There was fading when the ink was low, but that is to be expected. New cartridges had me right back to the stunning quality the first batch had. However, over time, I wasn't printing as often and the line streaking began. I'd print a document and every other line would either me faded or non-existent. After multiple print head cleanings, an alignment and page smear, it would print correctly. Here is the problem with that: the ink cartridges, especially the XLs I buy are expensive and it's wasting ink to do those tests and cleanings. Fast forward to March 2024 the time of this review. I'm not sure how old the cartridges in the printer are. I've not done much printing, and I have probably printed 15 pages now and it's still streaking no matter what I try. I plan to buy one more batch of ink and test those. Maybe these cartridges have just sat too long and will not work correctly no matter what I try; which is a shame because they are half full. In the next month or so I will try one more time with HP Genuine cartridges, either the 64XLs or 64s. If everything works correctly, I will amend this review. In the meantime, my suggestion would be unless you print in color and often, I would avoid this printer. If you do print in color and often, like I said at the beginning the first 30-50 prints were full color posters and they looked amazing. Cartridges can start to have issues after 6 months in an ink jet printer from my experience. [UPDATED REVIEW: March 16, 2024] I ordered some Official HP 64 cartridges... not the XLs as I didn't know how much printing I'd be doing if they did fix the problem, and if they didn't, well I'm not paying double to test something. Removed the old cartridges, the black one looked dried out for sure. I replaced with the new cartridges. Printer acknowledged "genuine" cartridges were in. I've only used the official/genuine cartridges. It did one alignment/cleaning and the page came out perfect. I had it do a page smear which came out clean too. I did a full color graphic print and it came out perfectly. Problem solved. The cartridges were the culprit. So my suggest to anyone who doesn't print as often as I do. If you know you're doing a bulk color print job, buy the XLs, you'll go through the ink. If you aren't doing any bulk jobs but need to replace your cartridges, just buy the regular 64s and if 6 months goes by and you haven't replaced them, at the first sign of ugly printing, replace them. It solved my problem and my faith is restored in this printer. 5 Stars. I highly recommend this printer for anyone who wants a budget friendly color printer that can do high quality photo or graphic printing on regular or photo paper.

After having my HP 895cse printer form 20+ years it finally died and went to the printer grave yard. This was my first and only paper printers I ever owned and purchased from HP. It gave me more than the service I needed for the projects that I worked on. However, since I have purchased my new HP Envy 7255e printer I am quite happy now. This printer was very easy to set up and easy to use and print copies. It does have two types of connectivity, Wi Fi and a USB port. The print and color quality is very good and acceptable for me. It is a very good 3 in one printer that has the capability of scanning, copying and printing documents. HP has gone several steps further and advancing the technology on their printers. These printers they make today are more advanced than the one that I owned since the year 2000. I hope to have this printer for as long as it will deliver good service.

Does NOT deserve ONE STAR!! This is a negative star product! Take your hard earned money and RUN away from this printer, run fast, run far. What a piece of junk! I bought this to replace another HP that I had been very happy with for years that finally gave up and what a giant disappointment this has been! Difficult set up to start things off. It is clunky and persnickety and will give errors for nonexistent problems all day long. I keep getting a "photo tray is blocked" error, and it's not! There is absolutly NO blockage. Over and over and over and finally it decides maybe its not blocked and prints, slowly. And heaven forbid you have to add or change paper and open the paper drawer! That sets off of whole uproar of it resetting itself and takes forever. Really, I have work to do and do not have time to powder this things butt. I just need a printer that WORKS and this is NOT it!!! And I waited too long, hoping it would be ok and we could learn to get along. Nope, now I can't return the stupid thing.

I have purchased HP printers over the years when I need one. This printer works well as I have not had any issues with it as of yet and I don't really expect I will. I chose this printer because it has a screen which is easy to read. For me at my age it makes it so much easier for me to use. I totally recommend if you need one.

So far, so good 👍🏻. We replaced an HPENVY printer that we’d had for about 10 years. We never had any issues with the old one (till it eventually died) using it on a daily basis. This one was super easy to set up and get going. NOTE: After reading other reviews, I inserted the ink cartridges and DID NOT scan the QR code…I don’t want auto shipping of replacement ink, because I found with our last HPE printer that the less expensive ones work just fine. Wi-Fi set up took literally seconds. The paper tray holds a good size stack of paper, and the ink section is easy to access. The little info window tilts upwards or lays flat..tilted makes it much easier to see and use. It has a QUIET print mode, and while it’s definitely quieter than regular mode it significantly slows the print process. Nice looking, clean lines, simple features. 👍🏻

I have had this printer for 10 months now and still so happy I chose to purchase this one. I love the wireless printing and setting it up was easy. This printer is a great value for the money, and I enjoy that I can save money by using 2-sided printing as well. I recommend this printer, and have always done well with the HP brand.

I’ve had it for some months now and it is great. Reliable and easy to work with. Line it!

I swear by HP printers they last and the ink is not too pricey. For the money, you can't go wrong. Install was a breeze and I'm electronically challenged.

t was extremely easy to set up, very easy to work with. so far am very please with this product. always have like hp products.

After battling with an e*son printer for the past 2 years, I finally got this printer which is excellent!!!! The value for money is great as it can print paper with regular paper and photos with photo paper in ONE printer. It can automatically print double-sided and Apple AirPrint can be used after immediate set-up! It also has an absolute size for storage for both photo paper & regular paper. The size is great even for a small room, print speed is great!

I have always purchased HP printers. My last printer I had for 5 years with no issues. This printer had numerous issues. The printer was always offline. Do not like having to troubleshoot a printer daily. I print a lot of pictures through out the year and this printer was smearing the ink rather than printing a picture. For every 1 picture printed 2 were ruined. I have never had so many problems with a printer. I have returned this printer and reordered the office jet. The office jet was no problem to hook up and so far is working without a problem. I have printed pictures with the office jet worked as it should. I have my fingers crossed that it will continue to work as it should. I always sign up for the HP ink program which to me is a great program and inexpensive compared to buying cartridges as you go, but again that is an individual choice. Overall the HP Envy Inspire was a huge disappointment.

Printer is good for a home office and little projects, but you're not getting high quality prints out of it.

HP printers are my favorite go-to for my home. This one was a LITTLE challenging to get set up, and I still cannot scan documents. That is due to my inexperience, not the printer's fault. Makes really nice copies, was a great price. I haven't used the tech support yet but HP Smart seems pretty easy. Ink cartridges are hmmm a little expensive but I won't be running out any time soon so I am not worried about that. I would buy HP again.
