  • Perfect size printer for my needs
I needed a printer and saw this one on sale during Amazon Days. I don’t know a ton about printers but it got really good reviews, I got 4 months of free ink, it print in color, and it wasn’t outrageously expensive. It was super easy to set up, love the app, prints really clear, color prints look fantastic. Loves that it can copy and scan. I don’t print a ton during the month but when I do print I print a lot. The app keeps track of how much ink you have used and if you sign up for HP’s ink delivery, a pretty good deal when I priced it out, they will notify you when you are low and mail you out new ink cartridges. Love that it’s not to big and that I can print from my phone, tablet, or laptop. ... show more

  • Nothing but trouble
Where do I start? It connects with 2.4 GHz, but if you have a dual-band you're out of luck. I called customer support and they said there's something wrong with my router. I ended up having to get a cable, and after that, all instructions went out the window. The entire set-up process is a nightmare. The status panel is incomprehensible. Error messages that come up are not in the troubleshooting manual. I ended up having to go to youtube to figure out the problems. After I finally got it printing, the paper kept jamming. While actually printing, the paper would feed in, advancing less than an centimeter at a time. That in itself is to be expected, this is not a fast printing machine. But it would stall out, printing the same line of space over and over. Could only cancel the print job and start over. And let's not talk about the ink cartridges. Fewer than forty pages and I got a low ink message from a brand new cartridge. And I'm not printing crazy pictures covering the sheet either. These are letters, with the occasional picture thrown in. Fewer than 15, each no bigger than 20% of the sheet. I knew not to expect a lot with this machine, because it was so inexpensive. But I thought that since it was an HP product it would at least do what it was built for. So disappointed with this. The scanner's good, albeit very slow, but that's to be expected with something so cheap. ... show more

  • 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

  • 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
