  • Nicely Featured, Affordable Printer/Scanner/Copier
This is a great deal for the price! I have owned several HP printers over the years, and this one did not disappoint me in its build quality, its ease of setup and its printing and scanning functions. I am using it principally with an Windows 11 PC, and so far it has performed extremely well. The driver installation and connection to WiFi were very quick and simple. Both the scan quality and print quality are very good, considering I paid only $60 for this machine. The automatic document feeder is really nice. I would love this machine so much more if it could print and scan duplex automatically, but, again, this cost me only $60, so I won't really complain about it. For what this machine can do, its price point delivers an amazing amount of value. ... 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

  • Reliable All-in-One Printer with Minor Drawbacks
I've been using the HP DeskJet 4255e for a few months now, and it's a solid performer for home use. Here's my take on it: Pros: Versatility: This printer does it all – print, scan, copy, and even fax. It's a great all-in-one solution for home offices or households with multiple users. Wireless Connectivity: Setting up the wireless connection was a breeze, and it stays reliably connected. I can print from my phone or computer without any hassle. Having that feature alone makes the cost worth it for me. Print Quality: The print quality is good for everyday tasks like printing documents, photos, and even some graphics. The colors are vibrant, and the text is sharp. My wife uses the prints for her CRICUT designs and they look amazing. Compact Design: It's compact and doesn't take up too much space, which is perfect for smaller home offices or apartments. HP Instant Ink: The included 3 months of HP Instant Ink is a nice touch. It saves me the hassle of running out of ink unexpectedly, and the subscription is affordable. Cons: Noise Level: The printer can be a bit noisy, especially during multi-page printing or scanning. It's not deafening, but it's noticeable. At the end of the day, this is a minor issue.... it's a printer. Cost of Ink: While the HP Instant Ink subscription is convenient, the cost of ink can add up if you print frequently. It's something to keep in mind if you're a heavy user. Also, be aware the free color ink included does not actually work if you don't sign up for the HP service. So be sure to buy color ink separately if you don't want to pay for a subscription. Speed: The print speed is decent, but it's not the fastest. For large print jobs, it might take a bit longer than some higher-end models. Overall, the HP DeskJet 4255e is a reliable and versatile all-in-one printer that's well-suited for home use. It offers good print quality and wireless connectivity but be mindful of the noise level and ink costs if you're a heavy user. ... show more

Still going great after over two years of use. I don’t use it often though and it works well with none genuine ink cartridges which are way cheaper than HP ink

  • DO NOT BUY HP TO MANY PROBLEMS
Oh, you want to print something? Sounds simple, right? First, sign up for an account. Then download the software. Connect the printer to the internet. Open HP Smart. Wait... HP Smart isn’t loading? No problem! Just uninstall it, reinstall it, restart everything, question your life choices, and try again. Eventually, on approximately the 10th attempt, the software might actually open. Great! Now the printer can’t be found. So now you’re reinstalling drivers, reconnecting Wi-Fi, restarting the printer, restarting the computer, and performing whatever ancient ritual HP apparently requires before it finally decides to communicate. And congratulations! You can print. This time. Oh, you printed about 20 pages and now you’re low on ink? Wonderful. Hope you like paying HP’s ridiculous prices, because naturally they’ve made using cheaper alternatives as difficult as humanly possible. In conclusion: I hate this thing. The actual print quality is decent. That is genuinely the nicest thing I can say about it. Everything surrounding the printing process is an absolute nightmare. HP Smart is one of the most frustrating pieces of software I’ve dealt with. More often than not, it either refuses to load, fails to find the printer, or creates some new problem that turns printing a single document into a troubleshooting session. The printer is also unnecessarily dependent on HP’s software and internet-connected ecosystem, which makes something that should be incredibly simple feel absurdly complicated. I paid over $100 for this printer, and at this point I’m already planning to replace it. I’ll consider the money I spent on it tuition for an important life lesson: Don’t buy another HP printer. Decent print quality does not make up for terrible software, expensive ink, unnecessary restrictions, and the constant headache of just trying to get the thing to print. I genuinely cannot recommend it. HP has somehow managed to make putting ink on paper feel like an IT certification exam. ... show more

  • Love It
I love my printer am all thrilled knowing I can Fax without having to go to a Postal Annex and paying a lot just to fax documents. The only thing is, I wish this printer would come in black so it can match with my office equipment, but other than that am satisfied with it.
