Fine & very complete printer, only those scans...
- Price/feature ratio
- Many features (duplex printing, automatic feed, scan to email, etc...)
- Skewed scans! Can be show stopper!
We had an inkjet printer for this. We don't print much at home and therefore suffer from ink cartridges that dried out and prints with stripes. To get rid of that, we bought a laser printer. We also wanted to be able to print and scan in color. I therefore compare the printer against the inkjet printer we had (Canon, could also scan/copy).
What I've never seen and therefore really disappoint is that all scans so far (both manually and with automatic input) yield skewed images! A rectangle becomes a parallelogram. The sides are neat but the tops and bottoms are slanted. (It seems to be forgotten that while reading the pixels from left to right, the scan bar moves (with manual scanning) or the paper moves (with automatic feed). And then you do get a parallelogram. You do not expect this from HP They've been making printer/scanners for a while now... Bring on that firmware update HP!
Not used very much yet. Results are probably what you can expect. Colors are less sparkling than inkjet. Printer is much heavier and makes quite a bit of noise compared to the old inkjet. But print quality seems to be okay. I haven't done extensive research on it, but it's certainly good enough for our home-garden-and-kitchen use.

Super printer for home and business use.
- Fast and razor sharp
- Nice colours
- Wireless printing from mobile
- Relatively expensive toner
Printer is smooth and easy to set up and configure. Unfortunately, the supplied toners are not completely full, and the toner is relatively expensive. But the print speed, the ease of printing from your mobile, and the beautiful colors make up for everything and make this printer a beautiful and reliable printer for home and business use.

Very complete printer that shows good quality.
- Very complete
- Automatic two-sided printing
- Scan from tray
- Small touchscreen
Bought a printer because my old Inkjet was driving me crazy, which had trouble with paper throughput and which, for unknown reasons, was of lower quality anyway.
Ordered this unit (large and heavy package!) and after unpacking everything worked immediately. Printing via Wifi, also from Android phone, web interface was easily accessible and it was really just a matter of plugging in.
The paper tray ensures that there is no hassle with hanging A4 sheets or unnecessary messages that the paper has run out. The scanner is nice and fast and also works from the tray, so you can scan entire books one after the other. The print quality is good, but not extreme. A laser printer is of a different quality than an inkjet. I've always had inkjet printers and had to get used to the way the prints come out.
The touchscreen is small and with thick fingers you are afraid to misprint, which miraculously hasn't happened yet. The most common functions are quickly accessible, although there are occasionally illogical steps (scanning from tray is only possible if you scan to email).
It is all perfectly readable and can certainly be used for business, although printing here is mainly private. This printer is an absolute must!
