I bought this printer after wanting to decrease my ink cost from a laser printer. I expect my print quality to be high, and I figured I wouldn't be able to find a quality printer. Boy was I wrong! After trying a few other brands with liquid ink, I bought this one and it did not disappoint. The ink is super easy to install, and the quality is near laser, but it's difficult to know the difference! I bought this so I could print my own cards for birthdays, anniversaries and anything else. Now I'm printing quality cards that I make myself, and I couldn't be happier! Once my husband found out I wasn't worried about ink consumption and how cheap the refills were, he's printed hundreds of pages of color for his classes, and they come out just beautiful! He wasn't too sure about me wanting to upgrade to a color printer, but now he loves it as much as I do! I have only used the scanner a few times because I have a document scanner that does more. However, the scanner works fine for larger or book scans. If you don't have another scanner, you will like at least having the option to scan. I especially like this printer over its larger models because the paper is SUPER easy to load! The larger ones need you to remove the entire front of the tray before putting paper in. This one you just take a stack of paper and slip it into the front of the paper tray. I can load it very easily from my chair without removing any parts. The printer connected to the wireless network pretty easy, and adding it to our phones and other computers was a breeze! I do notice every once in a while when the network is having trouble, it will scan for wireless networks and disconnect & reconnect. That usually isn't a problem, just something for you to know. After owning the printer a few weeks now and printing about 400 sheets of color AND about 50 greeting cards, the ink still reads full. I'm really looking forward to saving money on ink. I use the IP address to connect to the printers' interface, and I love that more than its software. Both work fine and similar. I highly recommend this HP SmartTank Printer for anyone who wants to save on money and have quality printed products.

This printer is a game changer! I have printed 2 reems of paper so far and haven't had to top of the ink! In my old printer I would have had to change ink multiple times with that much paper! The image quality is ok for photos, but I wouldn't use it for anything I'd hang on the wall. I use it mainly for printing off kid's school papers, shipping labels, and misc needed stuff. Very low ink usage! I haven't had issues with the WIFI connectivity. Spend the extra $$ on this over cartridge printers, you'll thank yourself later!

Get this: you buy the printer but HP owns its use to some degree. Forget the fact it says it has WIFI, you'll find it has turned this off and doesn't recover when you need the printer. You have to go press buttons to get it 'back'. The printer's web page logs you out in under 5 min. and no way to stop that either. So you'll find yourself constantly entering a complex (upper/lower/number/etc) password just to access what you bought and paid for. This thing is a pain in the arse, thank you HP for such secure printing in my home office. SO, my only solution was to drag out the USB cable extension and plug it into my computer, just like the old days, this limits where it can be placed of course, so it's on the desk again and i put a potted plant on the printer stand over in the corner. Once directly plugged into my computer it works well as printers did in the 90's. HP is really blown out on their software specifications now days, real junk and problematic. HOWEVER I like the all in one scanner, copier, printer and ink tank concept having now abandoned the new EPSON I had (90 days) and got fed up with too, again lousy software issues. The EPSON does not have easy to replace print heads so if I forget to print a page weekly it's dried up junk. The HP at least for around $100 can have new heads just snapped in, great, but high priced as per HPs plan to sell supplies. Maybe next time I'll try Canon again to see how their software works out. Shame, good hardware but lousy software that some bungling marketing pastie demanded such great features be included... Be prepared to order a 20' USB cable to go along with this purchase, forget BLE and WIFI uses.... Also have a coffee ready to bide your time with, the WIFI (EWS) pages take sometimes several minutes to come up in the browser, sip that coffee. The ADMIN password says once set is required to mess with the EWS settings pages, well if you don't set it you have to enter a long code from the sticker inside. Printer firmware update page, you see another check box to "automatically install updates" but you can't uncheck this, so when HP wants to further mess up your purchase they can just jump into your printer and have at it...next day you are left wondering what the heck happened to your nice $400 printer that now refuses to do any work for you as it demands it's own rest periods and equity, equality and such...? A side note, doc's say if you connect with Ethernet/USB the printer will stay more 'awake' for you when you need it. So simply adding a USB cable to your computer helps keep it running and WIFI up, however dang slow that turns out to be. Just imagine, HP is making millions of people sit idle while their product responds to their wishes with it's built-in slowness? How is this 'energy efficient or green'? What gives? I might also point out HP claims "Self-healing-WIFI", what is this supposed to mean? Marketing dumbo jumbo from the pastie division or what? Why would a device need this? I ask self-heal from what wound? If it worked correctly you wouldn't need this feature, its almost like claiming that a design defect is a 'feature' you are getting for the buck spent. I might invest in a WIFI to USB dongle and plug that in to the HP to get working WIFI ability with all modern HP printers. I have relatives and friends that also have HP printers ALL with these same quibbles going on for them, having a printer has never been more frustrating or time consuming that with the modern HP software we see today! I suspect many users that initially love this thing don't get back on and update their review to comment on all the sour issues that crop up with HP's latest software provided which is counterproductive!

Very nice printer for a decent price. Install is relatively easy and it's very versatile. Print quality is outstanding. I really like the refillable tanks, which are a lot more economical than printer cartridges. The HP app seems to be very versatile. Only issue is it's a little slow .... actually it's very slow like 🐌 slow .... four double sided pages so eight printed color pages took 15 minutes and 49 seconds. but for home office use so I can live with it.

Had to use USB to hook up printer. Tried several times for three days to set up account for Smart App, download arrow just sits on page and spins, will not connect. Can not connect to123.hp.com because I need to sign on with an account ID which I can not accomplish. NOT user friendly sites !! Can not reach HP for help because I need an account to do so. Wireless is meaningless.

In 2017 I bought an Epson ET-2850, because for years before that Epson never let me down and I was off of HP at the time. Anyway, things have really changed and that printer was a nonstop source of frustration. Fast forward 6 years and I had just had enough. Settled on the HP Eco Tank 6001, and it's just so much better in every way. Prints much, much faster. It can do two sided printing. The WiFi connection is actually usable without jumping though hoops. Photo printing quality is on par but takes less than a quarter of the time. I can say setup wasn't exactly a breeze and was a bit frustrating, but that's a one time thing. Printer had to be online for the setup to complete. My printer's IP is now blocked by my firewall. It will never speak to anything on the internet again. This ensures no unwanted firmware updates that disable functionality, which is apparently an issue some people have faced. The printer didn't come with a USB cable but I had one lying around. It's the old square type. When you set the printer up, you're forced to "choose between USB and WIFI" and it disables whatever option you don't choose. I was able to reenable the USB right after however, and both work fine side by side. This made my life a lot easier because printing from PCs is a pain over WiFi (can't cross LAN segments) and printing over USB is nearly impossible for mobile devices. I can't speak for ink costs as I'm not a heavy user, but once you've used an eco tank type printer, the idea of having to pay for cartridges every few months is just a bad memory. You are saving HUNDREDS of dollars. One of my main gripes with my old printer was trying to clean the print heads when nozzles clogged. At first it was possible, but it got to a point where nothing I did worked. If that ever happens with this printer, the print heads are replaceable, easily.

The HP Smart Tank 6001 is a solid all-in-one printer with a lot of great features, but there are a few things to keep in mind before buying. First, the good stuff—the print quality is excellent, and having up to two years of ink included is a huge bonus. Once set up, it works flawlessly for everyday printing, scanning, and copying. The cartridge-free ink system is efficient, and refilling is mess-free compared to traditional cartridges. Wireless printing from my phone or laptop has been smooth, and I love not having to deal with constant ink replacements. Now, the downsides—the printing speed is incredibly slow. If you’re in a hurry, this might not be the best choice, especially for large documents. Additionally, paper jams happen occasionally, which can be frustrating, though they’re not a constant issue. The initial setup was also a pain, taking longer than expected to get everything connected and working properly. That said, once the setup is done, it’s a hassle-free printer that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. If you can deal with slow speeds and the occasional jam, this is a great long-term printer with excellent ink efficiency.

Have used this for a few print jobs and works well. First time having a printer with a ink tank. I don't print a lot of stuff so I believe the ink that came with it will last me a long time. The replacement ink isn't that expensive. It was fairly easy to setup. Haven't used the wireless feature yet.

Very good quality. It was very easy to to install.

Printhead failures constantly continue HP does this support/reset every time and they get it working but it fails the next time I go to print. So I go through it again and again and they won't do anything to resolve the real issue. This is not how this product should work. When it does print the print quality is excellent. Very disappointed with the service from HP they actually closed my support case without resolving the issue. Not cool for such large company. They have seen the issue by accessing the camera on my phone during the support call and still not getting the issue resolved is very frustrating. Very frustrating to have to unplug and leave it unplugged for 1 minute then take out the printheads and reinstall everytime I want to print. If the product is clearly defective then replace it! Call centre in India certainly doesn't help. I wish these things were disclosed upfront before purchasing a product so the consumer can make an informed decision. I have asked for everything to be in English and they continue to send every email in French I feel this is very disrespectful.
