  • Funciona al 100% (sin cable??)
Mi HP printer D110 me duro algo como 8 años sin fallar, la 4255e me llego en muy buen estado, pero el hecho que no tenga cable que la comunique con mi PC me pone nervioso, el internet no siempre es confiable, y si falla me quedo sin printer. Hasta ahora todo va bien pero me hubiera gustado un cable para los casos de falla del internet ... show more

  • DO NOT BUY - Worst Purchase of 2024 By Far
I wish I could return this godawful printer. I cannot wait until I purchase its replacement and can take this abomination to an abandoned field and beat it to bits with a bat. Yes, it is cheap, but it is worth far less than what I paid for it. This is my first time using an at-home printer in awhile, and it is hands down the worst printer I have ever used. I have to repeatedly contact HP because the printer refuses to connect to Wifi when it or the Wifi is rebooted. HP's Printer Portal is a JOKE and does nothing except confirm that the printer is offline. If the printer gets disconnected for any reason, you have to call HP to get it reconnected to Wifi since the Printer Portal does not provide options for connecting it. You also cannot stop the printer from performing a print job, even if you cancel said job from the queue, meaning you have to choose between wasting ink or unplugging the printer and contacting HP Customer Service to get it reconnected. The UX experience gets a 0 out of 5, and while the printer does work once it is properly set up (which is near impossible to do on your own if you do not have an technology background), it takes about 5-10 minutes just to get connected to HP Customer Service any time you have an issue (which, in theory, should be able to be addressed in their online portal, but which, in practice, is impossible to resolve without professional assistance). Add another 5 minutes while they confirm everything about you save whether you are an organ donor. HP Customer Service has also made me carry my printer to different locations in my house because of how hard it is to get it connected to the internet (connectivity is not an issue for any other electronic device I own). This printer now sits within six inches of my router, and still it cannot reconnect to Wifi if anything disrupts its connection. I got this printer so I could quickly print drafts of my writing and do handwritten revisions. I have pretty much given up on using it after only a month of it being set up given the many issues I've encountered in such a short time. HP is actively creating waste in the world by putting out such bad products, and I will not be purchasing any other HP product, printer or otherwise, ever again. ... show more

  • Love this!
Really like this. It's wireless, quick, and the printer quality is very good. It was easy to set up & easy to use. The only problem I've run in to is that if you don't use it regularly the ink dries up. I researched & remedy is to print something weekly, even if it's just the test page.

  • Head's Up About Ink
I bought this printer for my stationery business. I have three others, but I needed one to specifically print on #10 business envelopes. This printer does that well, but it has a few cons. It can only accept 6 envelopes at a time or images become misaligned. That is easy to handle, but a bit of a pain for large stationery orders I print. Luckily, it prints quickly so I can stand nearby and just switch out sets of six envelopes. The second con is that is suddenly stopped accepting anything but HP ink. This wasn't a problem until the second time I replaced ink cartridges. After researching, the firmware seems to block anything that is not HP brand even if it is compatible. Just a head's up for anyone looking to save money buying ink elsewhere. This is listed in the description and it is my fault for not reading it all the way through to the bottom. I am going to keep this printer and use it until it gives out on me, but I think I will be looking for a different brand to replace it when the time comes. ... show more

  • Best value printer!
I bought this printer because for the money you can’t beat the value. The printer is easy to set up with the wireless connectivity, and it doesn’t appear to burn through the ink very fast. The instructions are pretty easy to understand and as I said earlier setting the printer up is fairly easy. The quality of the print job is as expected, if not better. I haven’t had to use the scan feature yet, but if it’s anything like the print feature, I bet it’s great. The printer is also very quiet and not overly large. ... show more

  • Great printer, easy setup
I gave up on the gimmick "mega tank" printers as I dont print much anymore anyways... I had this printer up and running 10 minutes after the unboxing, so far, so good no problems as of yet.
